Sūtra
अनभिभवं च दर्शयति
anabhibhavaṃ ca darśayati
Sūtra translation
And scripture also declares that (those per- forming works) are not overpowered (by passion and the like).
This Sutra points out a further indicatory mark fortifying the conclusion that works co-operate towards knowledge. Scripture also shows that he who is furnished with such means as Brahma>^"arya, &c., is not overpowered by such afflictions as passion and the like. Compare the passage, ‘ That Self does not perish which they find out by Brahma-/6arya’ ( VIII, 5, 3).—It is thus a settled conclusion that sacrifices and so on are works incumbent on the dramas as well as co-operative towards knowledge.
