Sankara has explained this passage in accordance with his own view of the Absolute Brahman from which everything arises and into which it is merged, like waves, foam, etc. merging into water, the original entity. The Carvakas quote this passage as countenancing their own view. The Naiyayikas regard this passage as the prima-facie view (purva-paksa) of the Upanisads and interpret it in the manner of Indrabhuti. See Yad vijñānaghanadi-vedavacanam tad purva pakse sthitam; paurva paryavimarśaśunyahṛdayaiḥ sortho grhitas tada. Nyaya - mañjarī, p. 472.
