And because of the context.

गुहां प्रविष्टाव् आत्मानौ हि तद्दर्शनात्

The two selves enter the cave, for such is seen.

विशेषणाच् च

And because of the qualifier.

अन्तर उपपत्तेः

Because of the inner presence.

स्थानादिव्यपदेशाच् च

And because of the designation of place and so on.

सुखविशिष्टाभिधानाद् एव च

And indeed because of the mention of being distinguished by happiness.

अत एव च स ब्रह्म

Therefore, he is Brahman.

श्रुतोपनिषत्कगत्यभिधानाच् च

And because of the mention of the course described in the Upanishads.

अनवस्थितेर् असंभवाच् च नेतरः

Not the other, because of endlessness and impossibility.

अन्तर्याम्यधिदैवाधिलोकादिषु तद्धर्मव्यपदेशात्

In the inner ruler, the divine, the world, and so on, because of the attribution of its qualities.

न च स्मार्तम् अतद्धर्माभिलापाच् छारीरश् च

Nor is it the one described in tradition, because its qualities are not attributed, and it is also embodied.

उभये ऽपि हि भेदेनैनम् अधीयते

For both are indeed studied as distinct.

अदृश्यत्वादिगुणको धर्मोक्तेः

Because the qualities such as invisibility are stated as its attributes.

विशेषणभेदव्यपदेशाभ्यां च नेतरौ

Because of the distinction in qualification and designation, not the other two.

रूपोपन्यासाच् च

And because of the mention of form.

वैश्वानरः साधारणशब्दविशेषात्

Vaiśvānara is meant, due to the specific use of a general term.

स्मर्यमाणम् अनुमानं स्याद् इति

If it be said that inference is remembered, it may be so.

शब्दादिभ्यो ऽन्तःप्रतिष्ठानाच् च नेति चेन् न तथा दृष्ट्युपदेशाद् असम्भवात् पुरुषमपि चैनम् अधीयते

If it is objected that, because it is established within by words and so on, it is not so, that is not the case, because perception and instruction show otherwise, and because this is also studied as the person.

अत एव न देवता भूतं च

For this very reason, it is not a deity or an element.

साक्षाद् अप्य् अविरोधं जैमिनिः

Even if directly, there is no contradiction, says Jaimini.

अभिव्यक्तेर् इत्य् आश्मरथ्यः

Because of manifestation, says Āśmarathya.

अनुस्मृतेर् बादरिः

Because of recollection, says Bādari.

And they declare him in this context.

द्युभ्वाद्यायतनं स्वशब्दात्

The abode of heaven and earth, because of its own term.

मुक्तोपसृप्यव्यपदेशाच् च

And because of the reference to approach by the liberated.

नानुमानम् अतच्छब्दात् प्राणभृच् च

Not inference, because of the non-applicability of the term, and because it is the supporter of life.

भेदव्यपदेशात्

Because of the designation of difference.

प्रकरणात्

Because of the context.
