Excerpt from The Vedânta-Sûtras, Vol. 2: With the Commentary

In the Vedanta-texts we meet in different places with different statements concerning the origination of various things. Some of those passages declare that ether origi mated; some do not. Some record the origination of air' others do not. Other passages again make analogous statements concerning the individual soul and the vital airs - Similarly we observe that other scriptural texts con tradict one another concerning order of succession and the like - Now, as we ourselves have inferred the worthless ness of other philosophical doctrines from their mutual contradictions, a suspicion might arise that our doctrine is equally worthless, owing to its intrinsic contradictions. Hence a new discussion is begun in order to clear from all doubt the sense of all those Vedanta-texts which refer to creation, and thus to remove the suspicion alluded to.
