Sūtra translation

The lighl (is Brahman only), from the statement of the straying for (from the senses).

It is only Vishnu who is (here) called 1 light,’ as the ear and other senses are said to stray at a distance from it; for He is, as the text says, ‘ beyond the range of the senses, pervading all’ (Rv. VII. 98. 1). In this and other texts, the Iyord only is said to be remote from the senses.
