subjoin Ananda Giri's commentary on the entire passage:

[Footnote 171: As might be the prima facie conclusion from the particle
'but' introducing the sentence 'but he in reality,' &c.]
[Footnote 172: It being maintained that the passage referred to is to be
viewed in connexion with the general subject-matter of the preceding
past of the chapter.]
[Footnote 173: And would thus involve a violation of a fundamental
principle of the Mima/m/sa.]
[Footnote 174: A remark directed against the possible attempt to explain
the passage last quoted as referring to the embodied soul.]
[Footnote 175: Pi/nd/a/h/ sthulo deha/h/, pra/n/a/h/ sutratma. Ananda
Giri.-The lower Brahman (hira/n/yagarbha on sutratman) is the vital
principle (pra/n/a) in all creatures.]
[Footnote 176: Sa/m/yagdar/s/ana, i.e. complete seeing or intuition; the
same term which in other places--where it is not requisite to insist on
the idea of 'seeing' in contradistinction from 'reflecting' or
'meditating'--is rendered by perfect knowledge.]
[Footnote 177: Translated above by 'of the shape of the individual
soul.']
[Footnote 178: Pa/n/ini III, 3, 77, 'murtta/m/ ghana/h/.']
[Footnote 179: So that the interpretation of the purvapakshin cannot be
objected to on the ground of its involving the comparison of a thing to
itself.]
[Footnote 180: So that no objection can be raised on the ground that
heaven and earth cannot be contained in the small ether of the heart.]
[Footnote 181: Viz. of that which is within it. Ananda Giri proposes two
explanations: na /k/eti, paravi/s/esha/n/atvenety atra paro daharaka/s/a
upadanat tasminn iti saptamyanta-ta/kkh/abdasyeti /s/esha/h/. Yadva
