3.1.9). The measure is mentioned in the text: ‘An individual soul
is a part of the hundredth part of the tip of a hair, divided a hundred-
fold’ (Śvet. 5.9) ‘For the lower one is seen to be like the point of
the spoke of a wheel only’ (Śvet. 5.8).

“NON-CONTRADICTION, AS IN THE CASE OF THE SANDAL-PASTE.”
Vedānta-pārijāta-saurabha

body, refreshes the entire body, so exactly does the soul illuminate.

If it be objected: If the soul be atomic in size, then how can
pleasure and the like be experienced over the whole body?—we reply:
There is no such contradiction. Just as one drop of yellow sandal-

own quality, the pleasure and the like extending over the entire body,
in accordance with the Smṛti passage: ‘This soul, though only atomic,
abides pervading its own body, as does a drop of yellow sandal-paste,
pervading the body’. For this very reason it has been said by the
Lord too: ‘“Just as one sun illuminates this entire world, so the
field-owner (i.e. the soul) illuminates the entire field (i.e. the body),
O Bhārata!”’ (Gītā 13.33).

“IF IT BE OBJECTED THAT (THE TWO CASES ARE NOT PARALLEL)
ON ACCOUNT OF THE SPECIALITY OF ABODE, (WE REPLY:) NO, ON
ACCOUNT OF THE ADMISSION (OF AN ABODE, VIZ.) IN THE HEART
CERTAINLY.”
Vedānta-pārijāta-saurabha
If it be objected: The example of the sandal-paste is not
appropriate, “on account of the speciality of abode”,—it is directly
