Madhvaon Brahma Sūtra 1.3.16

For the supporting of the whole universe is predi- cated of that which is within, in the text, “ This is the bridge, the main support ” (Ch. VIII-4) ; and the greatness of His glory is to be found described (further on) in the passage, “ He is the supreme Lord of beings ; He is the protector of all beings ” (Bri. Vl-iv- 22), and so on. In this Akshara the Imperishable indeed, O Gargi, Akasa (ether) is woven warp and woof” (Bri. V. 8-11) ; and, ‘ Indeed on the command of this, the Imperishable, O Gargi, etc.,” Bri. V-8-9). “ He indeed is the supreme Lord of all; He indeed is the protector of all ; i He is the ruler ; He is Vishnu.” “The world subsists by Him who is the Lord of all that is living % and lifeless." Prom such scriptural passages, it; is plain, all this glory is verily His. The Skanda Purana also says, ° It is Vishnu who is the one ruler of all, no other is the Lord of the universe."
