This is agreed but the Taittiriya vakya is: tat sruShTvA tadEvAnuprAvishat:
He created it and entered it. For this the Bhashya is: there is no physical
entering but only that the consciousness is 'available' there in the body
(inside the buddhi) for realization.  There is no problem here. But the
Panchadashi says:entered the superior bodies like that of Vishnu.  How does
one explain this? The Upanishad did not say this. Should one say that Swami
Vidyaranya does not know Vedanta?  How do we do the samanvaya of the
Upanishad passage and what the Panchadashi says?
