Samh. Br. Hence the dharmasastras, itihasas, and puranas also, which are founded on the different brahmanas, mantras and arthavadas, clearly teach that Brahma and the other gods, as well as the Asuras and other superhuman beings, have bodies and sense-organs, constitutions of different kinds, different abodes, enjoyments, and functions.
It cannot by any means be maintained that anything may be glorified by the proclamation of its qualities, even if such qualities do not really exist. Hence the arthavadas which glorify a certain action, just thereby intimate the real existence of the qualities and details of the action.
Knowledge, therefore, stands in a complementary relation to sacrificial works, in so far as it imparts to the acting Self a certain mystic purification; and the texts which declare special results of knowledge, therefore, must be taken as mere arthavadas.
