Mbh.12.209.12686 | O best of men, Kesava, that foremost of all beings, is said to be that which is Indestructible, that which is Unmanifest, that which is Immortal, Brahma, and Immutable. |

Mbh.12.238.14776 | Indestructible and destructible, these are the dual forms of existence of the Supreme Soul. |
Mbh.12.239.14813 | Engaged in the observance of austere vows, the Yogin who conducts himself thus for six months, seated by himself on an isolated spot, succeeds in attaining to an equality with the Indestructible |
Mbh.12.239.14816 | Restraining all the senses within the heart, one should, with faculties concentrated, think on the Eternal and Indestructible like a man of the world thinking of wealth and other valuable possessions. |
Mbh.12.279.17181 | The Yogin who is desirous of final Emancipation suppresses by Yoga-knowledge the seven, and continues to dwell in the world of life, freed from attachments; and taking those seven for certain means of grief, he casts them off and attains afterwards to that state which is Indestructible and Infinite. |
Mbh.12.283.17559 | Hearing the words of Virabhadra, Daksha, that foremost of all righteous persons, bowed down unto Maheswara and sought to gratify him by uttering the following hymn, I throw myself at the feet of the effulgent Isana, who is Eternal, Immutable, and Indestructible; who is the foremost of all gods, who is endued with high soul, who is the Lord of all the universe' |
Mbh.12.302.19025 | He is regarded as One and Indestructible. |
Mbh.12.302.19049 | This then is the Indestructible. |
Mbh.12.302.19059 | As regards eternal Chetana the Indestructible, although he is without attributes and without form, yet he in consequence of a union with Prakriti assumes all forms. |
Mbh.12.302.19075 | In this way the twenty-fifth, viz, Akshara the Indestructible, the wise say, by union with the unmanifest Prakriti, becomes transformed into Kshara destructible. |
Mbh.12.303.19076 | By means of knowledge however, the Indestructible becomes displayed in His true nature, SECTION CCCIV Vasishtha said, Thus in consequence of his forgetfulness the Soul follows ignorance and obtains thousands of bodies one after another. |
Mbh.12.303.19130 | Though Indestructible, he still regards himself Destructible. |
Mbh.12.305.19155 | SECTION CCCVI Janaka said, O holy one, it has been said that the relation between male and female is like that which subsists between the Indestructible and the destructible or Purusha and Prakriti. |
Mbh.12.306.19214 | SECTION CCCVII Janaka said, Thou hast, O foremost of Rishis, said that Unity is the attribute of that which is Akshara Indestructible and variety or multiplicity is the attribute of what is known as Kshara Destructible. |
Mbh.12.306.19293 | They that succeed in attaining to that state have never to come back to this world after the dissolution of their bodies; while as regards those that are said to be emancipate in this life, puissance, and that indescribable felicity which attaches itself to Samadhi, and immutability, become theirs, in consequence of their having attained to the nature of the Indestructible |
Mbh.12.307.19318 | Listen now to me as I tell thee all that has been said about the Indestructible, and the Destructible. |
Mbh.12.307.19319 | Both Jiva and Prakriti have been said to be Indestructible, and both of them have been said to be Destructible. |
Mbh.12.307.19324 | In consequence of its attributes of repeated Creation and Destruction, the Unmanifest or Prakriti is called Indestructible. |
Mbh.12.307.19326 | And because the principles beginning with Mahat are produced by Purusha as well, and because also Purusha and the Unmanifest are mutually dependant upon each other, therefore is Purusha also, the twenty-fifth, called Kshetra and hence Akshara or Indestructible |
Mbh.12.307.19370 | The twenty-fifth, viz, Jiva, when he thus succeeds in understanding the Supreme, becomes able to cast off the Destructible and attain to identity with that which is Indestructible and which is the essence of all that is auspicious, Destitute of attributes in his true nature and in reality Unmanifest, Jiva becomes invested with what is Manifest and assumes attributes. |

Mbh.12.315.19676 | For this reason the unmanifest or Prakriti, although naturally inanimate and unintelligent, still becomes animate and intelligent in consequence of her union with Purusha who is Eternal and Indestructible instead of remaining in her own nature due to destructibility |
