[«𱹾dzܲ Ա»] � Manahprakasha in Vedanta glossary
: Wikisource: Ashtavakra Gita

ѲԲḥpś (मनःप्रका�) refers to the “mental display� (of delusion, dream and ignorance), according to the Aṣṭāvakragītā (5th century BC), an ancient text on spirituality dealing with Advaita-Vedānta topics.—Accordingly, [as Aṣṭavakra says to Janaka]: “[...] One established in the Absolute state with an empty mind does not know the alternatives of inner stillness and lack of stillness, and of good and evil. Free of ‘me� and ‘mine� and of a sense of responsibility, aware that ‘Nothing exists�, with all desires extinguished within, a man does not act even in acting. He whose thinking mind is dissolved achieves the indescribable state and is free from the mental display (Բḥpś) of delusion, dream and ignorance. [Բḥpśsaṃmohasvapnajāḍyavivarjita�] [...]�.
