The Samkhya System: A History of the Samkhya Philosophy c11.18

c11.18

From the nature of the final cause follow the essential differences between the unevolved and the evolved. The products have a cause, on which they depend, and to which they are related: the source is uncaused and independent. They are many in number, and limited in space and name: the source is one, eternal and all-pervasive. They have activities, and parts: the source is immanent in all but has neither activities nor parts. They are the mark: the source is distinguished by them.
