Adhyaya 47 — Brahma’s Awakening and the Ninefold Scheme of Creation
अबुद्धिपूर्वकस्तस्मात् प्रादुर्भूतस्तमोमयः ।
तमो मोहो महामोहस्तामिस्त्रो ह्यन्धसंज्ञितः ॥
abuddhipūrvakas tasmāt prādurbhūtas tamomayaḥ /
tamo moho mahāmohas tāmistro hy andhasaṃjñitaḥ
Daripadanya timbul, tanpa niat yang disengajakan, suatu hasil yang terbentuk daripada kegelapan: yakni Tamas, Moha, Mahāmoha, Tāmisra, dan Andha (kebutaan).

Sarga: this is a psychological-cosmic stage describing the arising of ignorance principles that condition subsequent beings and their tendencies.
The five names indicate graded obscurations of consciousness—from inertia (tamas) to total blindness (andha)—mapping how awareness becomes progressively occluded in manifestation.
