Madhvaon Brahma Sūtra 2.2.7
Dvaita Vedānta
Sūtra
पुरुषाश्मवदिति चेत्तथापि
puruṣāśmavaditi cettathāpi
Sūtra translation
If it be said that the Pradhana works like the person and stone, we reply it cannot j for even then it is so (open to the same objection).
Just as only the non-intelligent body connected with the intelligent being lifts up and carries stones, etc., so the non-intelligent Pradhana too, being connected with a subordinate Purusha is capable of activity. But this argument cannot be maintained; for according to the text; “ O Lord except by Thee nothing is done, etc.” even there (i.e., over the joint agency as the Pradhana and Purusha) the Lord’s control being exer- cised, the reasoning employed by the Sánkhya fails for want of illustration.
