Bhaskarji,
 
Pranams.  The main & secondary clause examples were analogies to show the difference between the 4 mahAvAkyas & other similar shruti vAkyAs.  
 
Anyway, sukarahasya upanishad details about the anga / kara nyAsas and says that
*mahAvAkyAni chatvAri*
 
Formal initiation is only given to yatis accordingly as per their amnAya pitha representation.
