भूमिः- Bhūmiḥ

  About Śabdayoga Blog author Jayaraman Mahadevan   भूमिः- Bhūmiḥ    Etymology भू + मि = भूमिः bhū+ mi= bhūmiḥ   ·        The root word is भू bhū – and its meaning is सत्ता sattā – existence/ to be ·        The suffix मि mi added probably to indicate the meaning substratum. This addition of the suffix is based on grammatical rule भुवः कित्   bhuvaḥ kit   (uṇādisūtra 4.45) The derivation of the term given in Śabdakalpadruma dictionary [1] a is as follows - भवन्ति अस्यां भूतनि इति भूमिः bhavanti asmin bhūtani iti bhūmiḥ - Bhūmi is that on which beings exist.   Lexicon There is one entry for this term in Amarakośa. It is as follows – भूर्भूमिरचलानन्ता रसा विश्वम्भरा स्थिरा (2.1.2) bhūrbhūmiracalānantā rasā viśvambharā sthirā Bhū, Bhūmi, Acalā, Ānantā, Rasā, Viśvambharā,   sthirā are the words used (in Saṃskṛta) to denote earth.   Textual Occurrences Yogasūtra There are four occurrences of the term in Yogasūtra.

अथ- Atha

Image
  About Śabdayoga Blog author Jayaraman Mahadevan   अथ - Atha   Listen to the Explanation here   Etymology अर्थ + ड = अथ atha = artha + ḍa   ·        In this word artha is the root. The meaning of the root is   yācñā   - to beg ·        The suffix is ḍa. ·        This suffix is added to the root based on the rule of Vārttika on Sage Paṇini’s   Sūtra - anyeṣvapi dṛśyate (3.2.101) – the ‘r’ in the root gets deleted in the process of adding the suffix. “atha” is the resultant form. In this case, the addition of suffix to this root only gives a grammatically valid word form. The meaning of atha does not emerge from this process. The conventional usage of the term which is documented in the lexicons and such other sources throw light on the meaning of the term. Lexicon  The amarakośa has the following entry on the term –  मङ्गलानन्तरारम्भप्रश्नकार्त्स्न्येष्वथो अथ maṅgalānantarārambhapraśnakārtsnyeṣvatho atha (3.3.247)  The words atha and atho are used to indicate
