Bhagavad Gita -Sri Madhvacharya

(Bhashya and Tatparya Nirnaya)

Chapter 7 Jnyaana vijnyaana Yoga Even though not enjoying, He still illuminates and the other one even though devoid of food, is still powerful, in such statements there is no contradiction. In this verse the jiva is not mentioned because of reference earlier to the आत्मा being endowed with a body as in a dream state. In this verse the jiva is not mentioned because of reference earlier to the आत्मा being endowed with a body as in a dream state, thus in Garuda Purana. By the word अस्मात - the Lord alone is referred. The body is assumed both for the Jiva as well as for the Lord. One is with the eternal bondage; while the Supreme one is ever liberated, thus in Narada Puraana. The distinction is clarified in the Scriptures. The distinction in persons also should be imagined and not from their forms. The enjoyment by Purushottama is distinctive than that of the Jiva. He is the enjoyer as well as the non-enjoyer. But He is not the enjoyer of the gross forms”, thus in Gita-Kalpa.
