which are among the essential characteristics of the Brahman and which help in proving Him, have to be included in all the Vidyas relating to the Highest Self. Because the Brahman remains as the common object to be meditated in all the Vidyas.

The qualities, such as, having joy for His head, are not to be included; for if the difference in head, sides etc. accepted as qualifying attributes of the Brahman, there would be increase and decrease in the Brahman. Here the qualities, such as, having joy for His head as per the text ' Verily Joy is His head' (Tait. 111-5.2) are not to be included; because these cannot be the qualities, that could determine the nature of the Brahman. Suppose the differences in head, etc. are the attributes of the Brahman. Then it happens that there would be the increase and the decrease in the Brahman.
13. Itare tvarthasamanyat
But the other qualities have to be included as they are common to the Brahman.
