PREFACEThe one who
poses an inquiry after universal truth, sTym!
satyam, stands at a glorious juncture in life. Most people do seek
after truth in everyday life in the most simple ways in mundane matters.
Throughout their lifetimes they may be guided even if mysteriously by a sudden
recognition of truth. This may be truth which comes to their
perception in a time of need; yet with the courage to follow
what they see their destiny is preserved, so that gladdened might be their
hearts. A more universal plane of truth is available for seeking
also in a constant, unending way, so that the same more typical element of truth

in everyday matters can be honed in upon through active, concerted inquiry.
The relative realm of objective reality has actually arisen out of the absolute
realm of reality; that realm of the absolute can be sought after in the subjective
mode from
the seat of 'I', the Aatma
aatmaa.
It is this
greater inquiry which can pose a deeper understanding of the truest, most
essential nature of things -- reality. This reality in question is also of
an ultimate genre; it is inTy
nitya.
The distinguishing feature of inTy
nitya which
universalizes it in meaning in such an inquiry of metaphysical import as is meet
with sTym!
satyam
concerns time. According to the definition of that which knows no change
in feature throughout the three periods of time inTy
nitya is.
This fundamental query after what is most real according to definitions and
according to the profound drive to know truth will bless the lives of those who
seek after it, giving unending possibilities of glory through greater knowledge,
awareness of the self and awareness of reality. Henceforth, the entire work of
metaphysical explication held here at Sound and Light: The Sanskrit Primer of
Metaphysics is offered humbly unto those whose lives are indeed blessed
with such an inquiry in the metaphysical realm of endeavor. This primer
will bring profound insight into the ancient language of Sanskrit into
greater and greater light, so that a language whose attributes are born of that very inquiry
after sTym!
satyam
will serve such inquiry most fundamentally; indeed, inquiry itself can be seen as
hypostatic to the sounds of the
language of Sanskrit.
