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

760 VEDĀNTA-KAUSTUBHA [SŪ. 3. 4 40.
ADH. 10.]
no texts negativing the steady adherence to a stage of life. By the
plural (in “abhāvebhyaḥ”) other kinds of absence are to be under-
stood, viz. on account of the absence of texts indicative of descent
(from a higher stage), unlike the texts indicative of ascent (to a higher
stage), such as: “Having completed the life of a religious student,
let one become a house-holder; having become a house-holder let
one become a dweller in the forest; having become a dweller in the
forest, let one wander forth” (Jābāla 4), on account of the absence of
any cause for such a falling off; and on account of the absence of good
custom.
COMPARISON
Śaṁkara
Reading slightly different, viz. “niyamātad rūpābhāvebhyaḥ”.¹
Bhāskara
Reading slightly different, viz. “Jaimini” instead of “Jaimineḥ” ²
Baladeva
Reading like Śaṁkara’s. Interpretation different, viz. “But one
who has become that (viz. a nirapekṣa), there is no becoming not
that, (this is the view) of Jaimini too, on account of the restriction
(viz. that the senses of the nirapekṣa devotee are devoted to the Lord
alone and never to worldly objects), on account of the want of desire
(for anything other than Brahman), and on account of the absence (of
the life of a house-holder)”. That is, a nirapekṣa devotee never
deviates from his vow and enters worldly life.³
