- Sūtra 1.3.2And on account of its being designated as that to which the Released have to resort.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.3Not (i.e. the abode of heaven, earth, &c. cannot be) that which is inferred, (i.e. the pradhâna), on account of the terms not denoting it.Sūtra translationCommentary from Śaṅkara and Madhva only at this sūtra

- Sūtra 1.3.6On account of the subject-matter.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.7And on account of the two conditions of standing and eating (of which the former is characteristic of the highest Lord, the latter of the individual soul).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.8The bhûman (is Brahman), as the instruction about it is additional to that about the state of deep sleep (i.e. the vital air which remains awake even in the state of deep sleep).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.9And on account of the agreement of the attributes (mentioned in the text).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.10The Imperishable (is Brahman) on account of (its) supporting (all things) up to ether.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.11This (supporting can), on account of the command (attributed to the Imperishable, be the work of the highest Lord only).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.12And on account of (Scripture) separating (the akshara) from that whose nature is different (from Brahman).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.13On account of his being designated as the object of sight (the highest Self is meant, and) the same (is meant in the passage speaking of the meditation on the highest person by means of the syllable Om).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.14The small (ether) (is Brahman) on account of the subsequent (arguments).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.15(The small ether is Brahman) on account of the action of going (into Brahman) and of the word (brahmaloka); for thus it is seen (i.e. that the individual souls go into Brahman is seen elsewhere in Scripture); and (this going of the souls into Brahman constitutes) an inferential sign (by means of which we may properly interpret the word 'brahmaloka').Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.16And on account of the supporting also (attributed to it), (the small ether must be the Lord) because that greatness is observed in him (according to other scriptural passages).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.17And on account of the settled meaning.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.18If it be said that the other one (i.e. the individual soul) (is meant) on account of a reference to it (made in a complementary passage), (we say) no, on account of the impossibility.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.19If it be said that from the subsequent (chapter it appears that the individual soul is meant), (we point out that what is there referred to is) rather (the individual soul in so far) as its true nature has become manifest (i.e. as it is non-different from Brahman).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.20And the reference (to the individual soul) has a different meaning.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.21If it be said that on account of the scriptural declaration of the smallness (of the ether) (the Lord cannot be meant; we reply that) that has been explained (before).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.22On account of the acting after (i.e. the shining after), (that after which sun, moon, &c. are said to shine is the highest Self), and (because by the light) of him (all this is said to be lighted).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.23Moreover Smriti also speaks of him (i.e. of the prâjña Self as being the universal light).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.24On account of the term, (viz. the term 'lord' applied to it) the (person) measured (by a thumb) (is the highest Lord).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.25But with reference to the heart (the highest Self is said to be of the size of a span), as men are entitled (to the study of the Veda).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.26Also (beings) above them, (viz. men) (are qualified for the study and practice of the Veda), on account of the possibility (of it), according to Bâdarâyana.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.27If it be said that (the corporeal individuality of the gods involves) a contradiction to (sacrificial) works; we deny that, on account of the observation of the assumption (on the part of the gods) of several (forms).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.28If it be said (that a contradiction will result) in respect of the word; we refute this objection on the ground that (the world) originates from the word, as is shown by perception and inference.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.29And from this very reason there follows the eternity of the Veda.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.30And on account of the equality of names and forms there is no contradiction (to the eternity of the word of the Veda) in the renovation (of the world); as is seen from Sruti and Smriti.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.31On account of the impossibility of (the gods being qualified) for the madhu-vidyâ, &c., Jaimini (maintains) the non-qualification (of the gods for the Brahma-vidyâ).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.32And (the devas, &c. are not qualified) on account of (the words denoting the devas, &c.) being (used) in the sense of (sphere of) light.Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.33Bâdarâyana, on the other hand, (maintains) the existence (of qualification for Brahma-vidyâ on the part of the gods); for there are (passages indicatory of that).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.34Grief of him (i.e. of Jânasruti) (arose) on account of his hearing a disrespectful speech about himself; on account of the rushing on of that (grief) (Raikva called him Sûdra); for it (the grief) is pointed at (by Raikva).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.35And because the kshattriyahood (of Jânasruti) is understood from the inferential mark (supplied by his being mentioned) later on with Kaitraratha (who was a kshattriya himself).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.35aOn account of the inferential sign further on, together with Kaitraratha.Sūtra translationCommentary from Rāmānuja only at this sūtra

- Sūtra 1.3.41The ether is (Brahman), as it is designated as something different, &c. (from name and form).Sūtra translation
- Sūtra 1.3.42And (on account of the designation) (of the highest Self) as different (from the individual soul) in the states of deep sleep and departing.Sūtra translation
