Of the celestial Naga snakes I am Ananta; of the aquatic deities I am Varuna. Of departed ancestors I am Aryama, and among the dispensers of law I am Yama, lord of death.
Among the many celestial Naga serpents, Ananta is the greatest, as is Varuna among the aquatics. They both represent Krsna. There is also a planet of trees presided over by Aryama, who represents Krsna. There are many living entities who give punishment to the miscreants, and among them Yama is the chief. Yama is situated in a planet near this earthly planet, and after death those who are very sinful are taken there, and Yama arranges different kinds of punishments for them.

That object is said to have as its witness that by which it is experienced. In the case of something that is not experienced by anyone, the notion of “witnesshood” has no applicability at all.
Witnesshood (sฤkแนฃitva) is not an abstract or independent status; it is meaningful only in relation to experience. Wherever there is an experience, there must be a witnessing principle corresponding to it. But where nothing is experienced, speaking of a witness is meaningless.
Vedantically, this prepares the ground for understanding the ฤtman as the ultimate Witness—not as a witness among other witnesses, but as that self-luminous consciousness in whose presence all experiences occur. When even the sense of experiencer and experienced is negated, what remains is not “witnesshood” as a function, but pure Being–Consciousness itself.
HAVE A BRIGHT AND CHEERFUL DAY
