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

eternal, full of knowledge and bliss, the supreme person, and meditated on by they
who seek liberation. In those chapters all opposing views were refuted, and the
real nature of the Supreme was described.
In this third chapter will be described the spiritual practices that should be
followed in
order to attain the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The most important of these
are thirst to attain the Supreme Lord and a disinterest in what has no relation to
the Lord. That is explained in the first two padas.
In the first pada, in order to show that one should renounce the world, the
various defects of
material existence are explained. In this connection the description of the soul's
travels from one kind of material body to another kind of material body are quoted
from the Pañcāgni-vidyā chapter of the Chāndogya Upaniṣad. In the second pada,
in order to show that one should love the Supreme Lord, the Lord's many glories
and virtues will be described. In the Pañcāgni-vidyā portion of the Chāndogya
Upaniṣad (Adhyāya 5, khaṇḍas 3-10) are described the individual souls departure
for another world and return to this world.
Saṁśaya (doubt): When the individual soul goes to the next world does he take
his subtle body with him or not?
Pūrvapakṣa (the opponent speaks): The soul does not take the subtle body with
him.
Siddhānta (conclusion): In the following words the author of the sūtras gives
His conclusion.

tat - of that; antara - of another; pratipattau - in the attainment; raṁhati - goes;
saṁpariṣvaktaḥ - embraced; praśna - from the questions; nirūpaṇābhyām - and
answers.
In going to another it is embraced. This is so from the questions and answers.
Purport by Śrīla Baladeva Vidyābhūṣaṇa
Here the word "tad" means "the body". That meaning is taken from the word
"mūrti" in sūtra 2.4.20. When it leaves one gross material body and enters
another, the soul takes the subtle body with it. How is that known? It is known
from the questions beginning in Chāndogya Upaniṣad 5.3.3 and answers
beginning in 5.4.1. Here is the gist of that passage.
A king named Pravāhaṇa, who was the ruler of Pañcāla-deśa, asked five
