E. apa from, vṛja to forsake, ghañ affix, and ga substituted for ja.

of an act (comp. apavṛkti); e. g. kriyāpavargeṣvanujīvisātkṛ-

tāḥ kṛtajñatāmasya (scil. rājñaḥ) vadanti saṃpadaḥ; in this sense

the word is used in the Mīmānsā Sūtras, e. g. kriyāṇāmartha-

śeṣatvātpratyakṣatastannirvṛttyāpavargaḥ syāt . dharmamātre tvadarśanāccha-

bdārthenāpavargaḥ syāt; and in Pāṇini's Sūtr. e. g. apavarge tṛ-

tīyā; or in the Vārtt. to III. 2. 123: nyāyyā tvārambhānapa-

vargāt (see apavṛkta). Comp. also kriyāpavarga in distinction

from sādhanāpavarga. ² Complete delivery, i. e. the delivery

of the soul from the body and consequent exemption from

the sufferings connected with transmigration; final beatitude

(Snonymous terms are mukti, mokṣa, niḥśreyasa; but while

apavarga is used in the sense ‘final beatitude’ especially in the

Sāṅkhya-, Yoga- and Nyāya Sūtras, the former terms (qq. vv.)

have been generally preferred, to express the same notion,

by the authors of the Vedānta and Vaiśeṣika S.; for the latter

and the Mīmānsā S. compare also the preceding and the

following meaning.); e. g. Nyāya Sūtr.: tadatyantavimokṣo

'pavargaḥ ‘final beatitude is the complete deliverance from it

(i. e. from pain)’; Sāṅkhya Sūtr.: dvayorekatarasya vaudāsīnyama-

pavargaḥ ‘final beatitude is the indifference of both or of either

of them (viz. of Matter and Soul, i. e. their separation);

Yoga Sūtr.: prakāśakriyāsthitiśīlaṃ bhūtendriyātmakaṃ bhogāpa-

vargārthaṃ dṛśyam (Bhojadeva: apavargo vivekakhyātipūrvikā saṃsā-

ranivṛttiḥ ‘apavarga is freedom from transmigration as the re-

sult of clear discrimination’). Final beatitude being promised

by each philosophy as the reward of a correct knowledge

of its principles, the mode of attaining it differs, of course,

with the doctrine; e. g. Nyāya Sūtr.: duḥkhajanmapravṛttidoṣa-

mithyājñānānāmuttarottarāpāye tadanantarāpāyādapavargaḥ ‘final

beatitude takes place after the consecutive annihilation of

wrong knowledge which is conducive to the annihilation of

defects (i. e. passions, love, hatred &c.) and so on succes-

sively to that of exertion (rightful or wrong), of re-birth

and of pain; the topics of knowledge being in the Nyāya

‘Soul, body, organs of sensation, objects of sense, intel-

lect, imagination, exertion, defects as passions &c., the

state of the soul after death or re-birth, retribution, pain

and final beatitude’ (ātmaśarīrendriyārthabuddhimanaḥpravṛttido-

ṣapretyabhāvaphaladuḥkhāpavargāstu prameyam); for the topics of the

Vaiśeṣika comp. padārtha; Sāṅkhya Kār.: jñānena cāpavargaḥ

‘through knowledge i. e. of the twenty-five Sāṅkhya prin-

ciples comes final beatitude (comp. tattva); a comm. on the

Yoga: bhoktuḥ svarūpāvadhāraṇamapavargaḥ ‘final beatitude is com-

prehending the real nature of him who enjoys, i. e. of

Purusha or Spirit’. ³ (In the Vaiśeṣika philosophy.)

Speedy destruction, speedy cessation; in the Kaṇāda Sūtra:

‘guṇasya sato'pavargaḥ karmabhiḥ sādharmyam’ which according to

the Upaskāra of Śaṅkara means: ‘the speedy cessation of

a quality of what exists (does not come under the category

of action, but) has (only) properties similar to those of

actions’ (Śaṅk. apavarga āśunāśaḥ . sa ca guṇatve'pi dvitvā-

divadāśubhāvināśakasaṃnipātādhīna iti karmabhiḥ sādharmyamā-

tramasya na tu karmatvameva .). ⁴ The place or region where the

final deliverance is obtained; e. g. in the verse of the Bhāgav.

Purāṇa: sūryeṇa hi vibhajyante diśaḥ khaṃ dyaurmahī bhidā . svargā-

pavargau narakā rasaukāṃsi ca sarvaśaḥ (comm. svargāpavargau bhoga-

mokṣadeśau). ⁵ A gift, a donation; e. g. na te'pavargaḥ sukṛtā-

dvinākṛtastathā yathānyeṣu vareṣu mānada . varaṃ vṛṇe… ⁶ Re-

striction of a general rule (according to Suśruta's definition:

abhivyāpyāpakarṣaṇamapavargaḥ). E. vṛj with apa, kṛt aff. ghañ

lit. ‘leaving, abandoning’; comp. apavarjana.

m. Completion; the delivery of the

soul from the body; final beatitude,
