'एतद्वै तदक्षरं गार्गि ब्राह्मणा अभिवदन्त्यस्थूलमनणु' इत्यादीना भिहितमक्षरं परं ब्रह्म, अम्बरान्तधृतेः, 'यदूर्ध्वे गार्गि दिवः' इत्यारभ्य
'Oh Blessed Sir, In whom does He rest? He rests in His own greatness' (Chand. VII-24). From the above mentioned and other scriptures, the attributes, such as (1) resting in His own greatness (2) being the cause of the creation, etc. of the universe and (3) being the Self of all objects, are ascertained as belonging to the Highest Person. Hence the word Brahman, refers to the Highest Person.
AKSARADHIKARANA 3
9.Aksaramambarantadhrteh
The Indestructible (is the Brahman), on account of His supporting that which is the end of Ambara (ether) .
The scriptural text says thus-' O Gargi, Brahmnas call that Indestructible (Aksara). It is not gross, not of atomic size' (Brh. 3-8-8). Here what is denoted by the term, 'Indestructible' is the Highest Brahman, because He is said to be the support of that which is the end (or the place of merging) of ether. The scriptural passage beginning with 'O Gargi, which is above the sky' (Brh. 3-8.7) mentions the 1 यदूर्ध्वं गार्गि दिव इत्यारभ्य omitted A 1.
