* I keep the order of the original, though I do not translate quite literally ; ‘thought and word’ should be literally ‘mind and speech.’ See, on the collocation, Gita, p. 123 inter alia.
* Time=maturity of understanding which comes by time; energy =intellectual power; SAstras=consultation about Sâstras with fellow-students—Sankara, who adds that the order is not material as stated, and quotes a stanza which may be thus rendered, ‘The pupil receives a quarter from the preceptor, a quarter by his own talent; he receives a quarter by time; and a quarter through fellow-Brahmakârins.
5 The body being disregarded, these qualities are attributed to the self in this way. For the twelve, see p. 167; the others are abandonment, truthfulness, &c., p. 169.
