IPVV — V3-M ARGUMENT MAP (the close of the āgamādhikāra dvitīyo: the four states and the vital breaths, kārikās 12–20)

> The primary-ness of the agent-ness, and of the awareness, and of the consciousness-self — [The knower's essence: agency (kartṛtā), awareness (bodha), and the consciousness-self (cidātman) are primary. This frames the whole — the knower is fundamentally the free conscious agent.]

> In the emptiness, the intellect-and-the-rest-absence-own, the I-ness, the agent-ness-word — [In the state of the void (śūnya), where the intellect and the rest are absent, the "I-ness" and the "agent-ness" are only words — the pralayākala, dissolved in the void, has the mere trace of the "I".]

> The inner operation of the senses, the breath-and-the-rest-stimulating, the thought — [The prāṇa (the vital breath) is the inner operation that stimulates the senses; it is the life of the bound knower, the link between the self and the senses.]

> In the that-much-standing, the said, the sleep-like-the-dissolution-equal — with the known, and > without-the-known, with-the-māyā-stain, and-without — In the mere void (śūnyamātra) — the pure void — when the standing is the I-ness-rest (ahantāviśrānti), and when [it is] in the prāṇa, then the consciousness is put to sleep by the māyā (which makes the stain descend), not even awakened by kalā and vidyā. This is the suṣupta (deep sleep): the pravṛtti-cause-form appearance, and the karma (as the action-form) whose essence is the reflexive-awareness. Deep sleep is like dissolution (pralaya) — but in dissolution there is the long decay of the body; here, in sleep, there is no such action and no long time. Its sub-kinds: sleep (by fatigue), fainting (by shock/dhātu-disease), intoxication/mad

> In the mind-mere-path even, with the sense-object-ness, from the delusion — the clear-manifestation > creation of the beings, the dream-word, the thought. In the dream, the sense-organs (the eyes and the rest) are fixed, yet one sees the beloved, and the cognition "I see her, I draw her with my hand" is a clear manifestation whose primary [source] is the momentary Lord-creation. Only the mind is active, relying on the prior creation; but in the sense-object-part, [the dream] shares the common [world]; the stability and the rest of the appearance, joined, continue the reflexive-awareness — and in the waking state, this is refuted, so the dream is of the delusion-form. The dream is the mind's own creation, a clear-appearance making.
