Madhvaon Brahma Sūtra 1.4.28

Hereby all the words such as Sunya, etc., also, are explained. The Mahopanishad has the following “ He ' indeed is (called) Sunya; He indeed is Tuccha; He indeed is Abhava ; He indeed is the subtle, invisible, in» conceivable and unqualified.” “ Vishnu the Supreme Lord is called Sunya ; for being most high and perfectly blissful He belittles the happiness (of the wicked); He is • called Tuccha ; for he brings miseries to the unrighteous and is hidden from their view; the highest Lord is called Abhava; for He is not made or fully com- prehended by anybody; and He is called Nâsa for He is not consumed ; and the connotation of all terms resting on Him, He becomes the meaning of all the words denoting different things ; the wise that make use of them accept them as denoting other things in so far as they serve the purposes of communication.” The Maha- kaurma. The term * hereby ’ means ‘ by the whole body of doctrines and principles propounded above (for inter- preting all the words as declaring Brahman) * to wit, * All things are designated under His name for the reason that they are dependent upon Him,’ and so on. In the Vâraha Samhita this is said, “ In a work propounding general doctrines (leading to final conclusions)* at the end of each chapter, the wise sages repeat the words twice over, so that what has been said from the beginning of the chapter may receive emphasis”.
