Sanskrit for “onlooker,” “observer,” or “witness,” from the prefix sa- (with) and the possessive noun akin (having eyes). It is used in Indian philosophy to refer to €tman (in Advaita Vedšnta) or purua (in Sš¥khya) as the consciousness which merely witnesses the activities of the material world, both physical and psychic, but does not actually cause those activities. The term is rarely used in theosophical literature.
