What are the four qualifications ? A. (i) True discrimination of permanent and impermanent things. (2) Indifference to the enjoy- ment... of the fruits of one's actions both here and hereafter. (3) Possession of Sama and the other five qualities. (4) An intense desire of becoming liberated (from conditional existence). (i.) Q. What is the right discrimination of permanent and impermanent things ? A. Certainty as to the Material Universe being false and illusive, and Brahman being the only reality. * This portion has been condensed from the originaL Digitized by VjOOQ IC DISCRIMINATION OF SPIRIT, ETC, 397 (2.)
