Tattva 19 — Sight (Cakṣus)
The power to see: the subtle faculty of perceiving form and color.
Cakṣus is the capacity for sight — the subtle power of perceiving form and color that works through the eyes. The third of the five knowing-faculties, it is how the embodied self takes in the visible world. As a tattva it is the seeing-power itself, distinct from the physical eye that serves as its instrument.
