The co-ordination, on the other hand, which is expressed in the judgment 'the cow is short-horned' is never observed to be refuted in any way, and hence establishes the bhedabheda- relation. Up. Up. Up. Up. Up. Up. Up. Up. Up. Up. Up. Up. Up. On the ground of these two sets of passages the individual and the highest Self must needs be assumed to stand in the bhedabheda-relation. Up. Up.
But, an objection is raised, if on account of grammatical co-ordination and the resulting idea of oneness, the judgment 'this pot is clay' is taken to express the relation of difference, plus non-difference, we shall have analogously to infer from judgments such as 'I am a man', 'I am a divine being' that the Self and the body also stand in the bhedabheda-relation; the theory of the co-existence of difference and non-difference will thus act like a fire which a man has lit on his hearth, and which in the end consumes the entire house!
In the case under discussion the genus constitutes the mode, and the individual that to which the mode belongs: the idea does not therefore possess the character of unity. For these very reasons the individual soul cannot stand to Brahman in the bhedabheda-relation. And as the view of non-difference is founded on Scripture, we assume that the view of difference rests on beginningless Nescience.
This, we reply, is the baseless idea of a person who has not duly considered the true nature of co-ordination as establishing the bhedabheda-relation. The correct principle is that all reality is determined by states of consciousness not sublated by valid means of proof.
