Definitions

n.名词 noun
  1. 1

    Hinduism, Buddhism.

    • : intellect, seen as an intuitive faculty giving increased spiritual awareness.

Examples

  • Human evolution develops the mental principle, Manas; Super-human evolution develops the spiritual body, Buddhi.

  • Now, in the first place, nothing in the context warrants the explanation of the first 'tat' by buddhi.

  • For this can apply to the intelligent individual soul only, not to the non-intelligent buddhi.

  • Buddhi, though meaning intellect, is used rather in the sense of ascertaining or perception.

  • Hence we conclude that the buddhi and the individual soul are spoken of.
