Namaste

One more interesting point is some say it is Sariraka Mimansa but
others say it is Brahma Mimansa. Advaitis and Visistadvaitis like
Sariraka Mimansa but Dvaitis will not agree. They say it is Brahma
Mimansa. They cannot agree Brahman has taken up a body and living in
it. For Advaitis Brahman is the Jeeva in the body.
