Educational Q&A

Perception and expression depend on instruments like the senses, speech, and mind; what becomes ‘manifest’ in experience is tied to these faculties, while the teaching implicitly distinguishes the inner knowing principle from the changing operations of sense and mind.

In Shanti Parva, Bhishma continues instructing Yudhishthira on dharma and higher understanding. Here he explains how cognition (e.g., taste), utterance (speech), and mental activity relate to the senses and mind, as part of a broader discourse on the constituents of experience and the path to discernment.
