In the Antaryami Brahmanam, while specifying that the Antaryami is the one
which activates the body mind organs of every devata, etc,. Shankara says,
the body, etc. of those devatas, etc. are the body, etc. of the Antaryami.
The Antaryami itself has no body, mind, organs, etc.  This is the point
made in the post.
