3.Sadashiva(Iccha Shakti-Will)
4.Ishvara(Jnana Shakti-Knowledge)
5.Shuddhavidya(Kriya Shakti-Action)
6.Maya(Power of Self-Limitation)
7.Kalaa(Limitation Of Omnipotence)
8.Vidya(Limitation Of Omniscience)
9.Raga(Limitation Of Completeness)
10.Kaala(Limitation Of Eternity)
11.Niyati(Limitation Of Omnipresence)
12.Purusha(Individual Subject)
13.Prakriti(objective Experience)
14.Buddhi(Intellect)
15.Ahamkara(Ego)
16.Manas(Mind)
17-21.Jnanendriyas
22-26.Karmendriyas
27-31.Tanmantras
32-36.Mahabhutas
The bottom 25 are common with Vedanta.
Can you now offer us the usefulness and the application of the list ? This is where the value begins - in its application and understanding.
