गोविन्द भाष्य (श्रील बलदेव विद्याभूषण - अचिन्त्यभेदाभेद वेदान्त ब्रह्मसूत्र भाष्य सटीक)

material universe is made from the Supreme Personality of Godhead, just as many
things are manifested from sources very different in nature, just as worms come
from honey, as elephants, horses, and other animals come from the kalpa-
drumatree, and as gold and other things come from the cintāmaṇi jewel. The

Adhikaraṇa 6

Reality." If this objection is raised, he replies is the following words.
Sūtra 7
If someone maintains the material world to be unreal, then I say no. The world is
not unreal merely because it is in nature different from the Supreme Personality of
Godhead.
Purport by Śrīla Baladeva Vidyābhūṣaṇa
There is no fault in this. Why? The sūtra says pratiṣedha-mātratvāt (The world
is not unreal merely because it is in nature different from the Supreme Personality
of Godhead). The previous sūtra denied that a substance and its ingredient must
have the same nature. It is not that a thing and its ingredient are different in
substance. This is so because the Supreme Personality of Godhead becomes
transformed, becoming the body of the material world, which is by nature different
from Him. This is the meaning: Is it because 1. His nature is different from the
