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

260 VEDĀNTA-PĀRIJĀTA-SAURABHA [SŪ. 1. 4. 24-25. ADH. 7.] SŪTRA 24 "ON ACCOUNT OF THE TEACHING OF REFLECTION." Vedānta-pārijāta-saurabha "On account of the teaching of reflection" in the text: 'He perceived (i.e thought): "May I be many"' (Chānd. 6.2.3), the fact that Brahman is the creator (i.e. the efficient cause) and the material cause is established. Vedānta-kaustubha "On account of the teaching of reflection," i.e. on account of the teaching of resolution, in the passage: 'He wished' (Tait. 2.6), as well as on account of the teaching of resolution in the passage '"May I be many"' (Tait. 2.6, Chānd. 6.2.3), the Supreme Soul alone can appropriately be the creator (or the efficient cause) and the material cause respectively) COMPÁRISON All others read 'ca' in the end.¹ SŪTRA 25 "AND ON ACCOUNT OF THE DIRECT MENTION OF BOTH IN THE SACRED TEXT." Vedānta-pārijāta-saurabha On account of the direct mention of Brahman as the efficient and material cause in the sacred text: 'Brahman was the wood, Brahman the tree from which they carved out the heaven and the earth. O wise men, ask through the mind whereon it stood supporting the worlds' ² (Tait. Br. 2.8.9.6-7 ³), Brahman alone is of the two-fold forms. ¹ The reading in the C.S.S. ed. of V.P S., however, adds 'ca' at the end, p. 23. But the Brindaban ed. (vol. I) omits the 'ca', p. 354. ² Last line of the quotation incorrect. For the correct quotation see below V.K. The C.S.S. ed. gives the correct quotation, p. 23, which is translated here. ³ P. 360, lines 5–7, vol. 2. R, Bh, B.
