Sūtra translation
From Him only (creation, etc,, proceed in all places and at aU times), because of His being (for that purpose) de- clared to be present everywhere, and called Mayamaya (pos- sessed of all powers and the necessary will) by scripture, etc.
In all places, at all times, with regard to everything, only by Him creation, etc., are made. And the Bliallaveya Sruti says, “ He is all, He is in all, He is the ruler of all. He is inconceivable, He is most high." In the Chatur- veda Sikha, (His power and purpose are declared thus) : In all places, at all times, among all things, everything proceeds from Him, from His eternal power called Maya (will) which is the very essence of the Lord; hence they call Vishnu, the eternal of the eternal, Mayamaya (He who measures or makes everything by the power of’ His will). Further by the term,4 etc./ the Sutrakara implies there is absolutely no proof to support the suppositions to the contrary. Since the dispensation of fruit rests upon Karma or action, it should not be supposed that Karma itself bestows the fruit. Why ?
