Dehānta (Cyavana) and Upapatti: Kāśyapa’s Questions and the Siddha’s Account of Death, Pain, and Karmic Re-embodiment
तेषु मर्मसु भिन्नेषु ततः स समुदीरयन् । आविश्य हृदयं जन्तो: सत्त्वं चाशु रुणद्धि वै
teṣu marmasu bhinneṣu tataḥ sa samudīrayan | āviśya hṛdayaṃ jantoḥ sattvaṃ cāśu ruṇaddhi vai ||
ເມື່ອຈຸດສຳຄັນ (marma) ເຫຼົ່ານັ້ນຖືກທຳລາຍ ຫຼືຈຸດຕໍ່ອ່ອນໄຫວຖືກແຕກຂາດ ລົມ (vāyu) ຈະພຸ່ງຂຶ້ນດ້ວຍຄວາມປັ່ນປ່ວນ ແລ້ວເຂົ້າສູ່ຫົວໃຈຂອງສັດ; ມັນປິດກັ້ນຢ່າງວ່ອງໄວຄວາມແຈ້ງໃນ—ຄວາມມັ່ນຄົງແລະປັນຍາພິຈາລະນາ.
सिद्ध उवाच
Educational Q&A
Damage to vital bodily points (marmas) can rapidly disturb the life-breath and cloud the mind’s steadiness (sattva), implying an ethical caution: violence does not merely wound the body—it can extinguish a being’s capacity for clear judgment and self-mastery.
A Siddha explains a physiological-moral mechanism: when marmas are broken, vāyu becomes agitated, rises, enters the heart, and quickly blocks the victim’s inner clarity, describing how severe injury leads to swift mental incapacitation.
