a. Salutation to the illustrious sage, Kapila!
b. Well, the great sage, Kapila, desirous of raising the world [from the Slough of Despond in which he found it sunk], perceiving that the knowledge of the excellence of any fruit, through the desire [which this excites] for the fruit, is a cause of people’s betaking themselves to the means [adapted to the attainment of the fruit], declares [as follows] the excellence of the fruit [which he would urge our striving to obtain]:
The subject proposed.
Aph. 1.* Well, the complete cessation of pain [which is] of three kinds is the complete end of man.
a. The word ‘well’ serves as a benediction; [the particle atha being regarded as an auspicious one].
b. By saying that the complete cessation of pain, which is of three kinds,—viz., (1) due to one’s self (ádhyátmika), (2) due to products of the elements (ádhibhautika), and (3) due to supernatural causes (ádhidaivika),—is the complete end of man, he means to say that it is the chief end of man, among the four human aims, [viz., merit, wealth, pleasure, and liberation (see Sáhitya-darpa?a, § 2)]; because the three are transitory, whereas liberation is not transitory: such is the state of the case.
