Sanskrit, transliteration, word meanings, and translation for steady Bhāgavata reading.
Sanskrit
तद्वत् षोडशसङ्ख्याने आत्मैव मन उच्यते ।
भूतेन्द्रियाणि पञ्चैव मन आत्मा त्रयोदश ॥ २३ ॥
Transliteration
tadvat ṣoḍaśa-saṅkhyāne
ātmaiva mana ucyate
bhūtendriyāṇi pañcaiva
mana ātmā trayodaśa
Synonyms
tadvat — similarly; ṣoḍaśa-saṅkhyāne — in counting sixteen; ātmā — the soul; eva — indeed; manaḥ — as the mind; ucyate — is identified; bhūta — the five gross elements; indriyāṇi — the senses; pañca — five; eva — certainly; manaḥ — the mind; ātmā — the soul (both the individual soul and the Supersoul); trayodaśa — thirteen.
Translation
According to the calculation of sixteen elements, the only difference from the previous theory is that the soul is identified with the mind. If we think in terms of five physical elements, five senses, the mind, the individual soul and the Supreme Lord, there are thirteen elements.
