sanskrit

In this context, all these are considered unconscious entities. The purusha (conscious being) is the twenty-fifth, who is the thinker, associated with cause and effect. Even though the fundamental nature is unconscious, it is said that the purusha is directed towards liberation. They illustrate this with examples such as milk and its components.
