 तत्सृष्ट्वा । तदेवानुप्राविशत् । तदनुप्रविश्य । सच्च त्यच्चाभवत् । निरुक्तं
चानिरुक्तं च । निलयनं चानिलयनं च । विज्ञानं चाविज्ञानं च । सत्यं चानृतं च
सत्यमभवत् । यदिदं किञ्च । तत्सत्यमित्याचक्षते । तदप्येष श्लोको भवति ॥ १ ॥



The 'entering' is taken up to both 'satyam' (vyavaharikam) and 'anrutam'
(praatibhasikam). Brahman alone 'became' both the vyavaharikam and
pratibhasikam.  That includes all bhrama experiences a person gets in the
world, including the dream experience. Seen this way, the triad of states
is an expression of Chaitanyam which the jiva really is>>.



There is no question about this. Why only jIva, the ‘ entering ‘ mentioned
above is applicable to jada objects as well, as is clear from the above
quote. It refers to entire Creation. But in jada objects, ‘ entry ‘ is not
as the ‘ subject ‘ but as adhishthana. The topic in my statement was the ‘
subject ‘. << Shruti does not say ‘ He enters ‘ as the subject
in the dream Creation >>.
