Madhvaon Brahma Sūtra 1.3.7

In the text, “ (The two like unto two birds, which are inseparably connected and live together, embrace the same tree; of these one eats the insipid fruit as sweet; the other without eating shines all round.’ Thus the Lord is said to stand (to be merely present) shining; while the soul is subject to the experience of the con- sequence of his works : (and the difference between the Lord and the soul is declared). In the Chandogya text commencing with, “ Prana is greater than Asa (Bharati),” and further on saying, * He who is perfect is indeed bliss itself’ (vii. 23), Prana (Vayu) apparently comes to be the perfect one. And from the text, “ Pranas (Breaths) that have begun to depart ” (Ch. VII. 15-3), describing a charac- teristic of Vayu,the word Prana presumably denotes Vayu. To remove the doubt whether Vayu or Vishnu is actually meant here, the Sutra proceeds.
