Sūtra translation

Thence the wite reaches Brahman directly from the Lord of Vidyut ; (for there it none between them) and Sruti says that.

As statements are differently made in different parts (of scripture), it should not be supposed that there is one (more) to be reached beyond the chief Vayu before reach- ing Brahman ; for only by Vayu the Lord of Vidyut, Brahman is reached; for the Sruti “ He leads them to Brahman ” (Ch. v. 10.2) declares the passage (of the wise) direct from Vayu to Brahman. So says the Brihat Tantra: “ Only Vayu, the Lord of Vidyut, can lead him (the soul) to Brahman, and no other; who else is of such power than Vayu, the ruler of all the organs (of sense)."
