वेदान्त पारिजात सौरभ (भगवद् निम्बार्काचार्य - द्वैताद्वैत वेदान्त ब्रह्मसूत्र भाष्य सटीक)

[sū. 3. 3. 48. 686 VEDĀNTA-KAUSTUBHA ADH. 20 ] its subordinate members are directly perceivable, these would be meaningless if there be not a separate sacrifice consisting in medi- tation The inseparable adjuncts of a sacrifice are the cups, hymns, recitation and so on. The transference, viz. "Of these, each is as great as the former" (Śat. Br 10.5.3, 11) has been mentioned above. Such a transference does not fit in if there be no difference (between these two)¹. The scriptural text and the rest have been indicated above.² With regard to this, a parallel instance is cited thus: "Like the separateness of other cognitions" Just as other cognitions like the Śāṇḍilya-vidyā and the rest are different from a sacrifice consisting in action, as well as from other vidyās, owing to their respective peculiar adjuncts, so is the case here too. This being so, an injunction is to be supposed. "And" it is "found" that in the case of what is similar to a mere statement, e g. in the text: "What alone one does with knowledge" (Chānd. 1.1.10) and so on, an injunction is supposed. "That has been said," thus: "But the texts, on account of being new" (Pū. Mī. Sū. 10.4 22). Their connec- tion with a fruit too may be known from the transference: "Of these, each one is as great as the former" (Śat. Br. 10.5.3, 11) COMPARISON Baladeva He breaks this sūtra into two different sūtras:—"Anubandhā- dibhya" and "Prajñāntara . . . . taduktam," and interprets them absolutely differently. Thus: Sūtra 51.—He takes it to be forming an adhikaraṇa by itself, concerned with the worship of holy men. Hence the sūtra: "On account of injunction and so on". That is, Scripture expressly enjoins the worship of great and good men, and hence such an worship must be undertaken as an auxiliary and indirect means to salvation.³ Sūtra 52.—He begins a new adhikaraṇa here (two sūtras), con- cerned with showing that the devotees realize and intuit the Lord differently. He reads "dṛṣṭiś ca" in place of "dṛṣṭaś ca". Hence the sūtra: "And like the difference between prajñā and the other (sort of knowledge) the perception (of the Lord too differs in the case ¹ Vide under V.K. 3.3.22. ² Vide V.K. 3.3.47. ³ G.B. 3.3.51. pp. 206–208, Chap. 3.
