Here begins the description of Him who is contemplated in the heart-lotus, and its first words are negations.
Acintya — “unthinkable”; avyakta — “unmanifest”; arūpa — “formless”.
But between them stand positive words too, and note which are the majority: śiva — “auspicious”; praśānta — “tranquil”; amṛta — “immortal”; cidānanda — “consciousness-and-bliss”; adbhuta — “wondrous”.
Such is the usual construction of these passages. The negations remove the means of grasping, not the content. To one who would say the unthinkable is empty, the book answers with the neighbouring word: it is good, and it is bliss.
Note also anantarūpa — “of endless form” — set beside arūpa, “formless”.
The two words in one verse seem to quarrel. But there is no contradiction: He has no form by which He would be bound, and for that reason His shapes are without number.
The same pair we read in the Rāma-tāpanī, where ananta-rūpa stood before the description of one single form.
And the last: brahma-yoni, “the womb of Brahmā” — the source of Brahmā the creator himself. He to whom Āśvalāyana put his question points above himself.
