18035 Inertness in individuals

CHAPTER 18,
PATH OF LIBERATION AND RENUNCIATION,
VERSE LIB 35
GIST

An evil minded person who does not shed sleep, fear, misery, sadness, pride etc., the determination and exuberance of such person are the tAmasa (Ignorance coupled with inertia) type.

BLOGGER'S VIEW
The definition is clear and good.
Originally 'tAmasa' meant darkness. Darkness is a representative of intertia and ignorance.

AADHYAAYA 18,
MOOKSHA SANYAASA YOOGA
S`LOOKA: MSY 35

Yayaa svapnam bhayam s`ookam
vishaadam madam eeva ca
na vimumchati durmeedhaa
dhruti: saa paartha taamasii.
