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

[sū. 2. 1. 35.
ADH. 10.] VEDĀNTA-KAUSTUBHA 323
Vedānta-kaustubha
"And on account of the fitting in." That is, all the attributes,
mentioned or not mentioned, befitting the cause of the world and
inappropriate on the part of pradhāna and the rest,—fit in on the part
of Brahman alone. Hence, it is established that the concordance of
Scriptures with regard to Brahman is not contradicted by any means
whatsoever.
Here ends the section entitled "Having a need" (10).
Here ends the first quarter of the second chapter in the holy
Vedānta-kaustubha, commentary on the Śārīraka-mīmāṃsā,
and composed by the reverend teacher Śrīnivāsa.
COMPARISON
Śaṁkara and Bhāskara
This is sūtra 37 in both the commentaries. They take this sūtra
to be a new adhikaraṇa by itself.
Baladeva
This is sūtra 37 in his commentary. Interpretation different,
viz. the same theme continued thus: And on account of the fitting
in of all attributes (harmonious in themselves or not) (on the part of
the Lord). That is, the Lord is possessed of paradoxical and myste-
rious powers, and hence it is possible for Him to possess, along with
the attributes of perfect justice and impartiality, the attribute of
showing special favour and partiality for his devotees as well.¹
