  1. Viṣaya (Statement): The Chāndogya Upaniṣad states: asya lokasya kā gatir iti ākāśa iti hovāca sarvāṇi ha vā imāni bhūtāny ākāśād eva samutpadyante. ākāśaṁ pratyastaṁ yānty ākāśaḥ parāyaṇam iti. "He asked: What is the ultimate destination of all living entities? He replied: Ākāśa is the ultimate destination. All living entities and all material elements have emanated from ākāśa, and they will again enter into ākāśa."
  2. Saṁśaya (doubt): What is the meaning of the word ākāśa here? Does it mean the element ether, or does it mean the Supreme Brahman?

Purport by Śrīla Baladeva Vidyābhūṣaṇa The word ākāśa here refers to Brahman and not the material element ether. Why? Because the ākāśa described here has alll the characteristics of Brahman. The ākāśa described here is the source from which the material elements emanate, the maintainer who sustains them, and the ultimate refuge into which they enter at the time of comsic annihilation. That is Brahman. The scriptures explain: sarvāṇi ha vā imāni bhūtāni (All material elements have emanated from ākāśa). Because ether is one of the material elements, it is included in the word sarvāṇi (all the elements). It is not the independent origin of the causal chain, but merely one of
