SUTRA I. 2. 11.

गुहां प्रविष्टावात्मानौ हि तद्दर्शनात्॥१.२.११॥

guhāṃ praviṣṭāvātmānau hi taddarśanāt ..1.2.11..

… Guham, in the cavity, in the heart, Pravishtau, the two who entered. … Atmanau, the two selfs. … Hi, because, as. Tat, that Darshanat, because of being seen (in the other texts also).

11. The two who have entered the heart, are the Jiva-Atman and the Paramatman,: because such is seen in other texts also. — 42.

COMMENTARY

The two found in the cavity of the heart are the Jiva and the Lord, and not the Buddhi and the Jiva or the Prana and the Jiva. Why do you say so? For this is seen. Namely, it is seen, that in that section, the Individual Self and the Highest Self are spoken of as having entered into the heart. Thus Katha Upanishad, I., 4. 7, shows that the Jiva is in the heart:

She who is co-born with the spirit, She the Infinity full of Divinity, concealed in the cavity of the heart and abiding therein, manifests herself also in the elements. This is that. (Aditi or Jiva is the spirit side or pole of creation — manifestation is from matter).

While Katha Upanishad, I. 2. 2, shows that the Supreme Self is also in the heart:

The wise leaves behind joy and sorrow, having known the God by the Yoga of concentration of Self, — Him who is difficult to be seen, who pervades the universe, who is in the heart of all, who dwells in the Muktas, the Ancient of Days.

The word «Hi» or «because» in the Sutra indicates that it is a well-known tradition of the ancients that the Jiva and the Supreme Self are in the heart. The word «Pibantau» is in the dual number moaning «the two drink»; while as a matter of fact, the Jiva only drinks the fruit of its works and not the Supreme Self. The dual case is, therefore, to be undersfood in the same way as the phrase «There go the umbrella-bearers», one of whom only carries the umbrella. Or else this may be explained that both are agents with regard to the drinking, one is the direct agent; the other is the causal agent, i.e., to say the Individual Self directly drinks, while the Supreme Self causes the individual self to drink, the phrase «shade» and «light» indicate the difference between the infinite knowledge of the Lord and the finite knowledge of the Jiva, or that the Jiva is bound down to the chain of Samsara, while the Lord is above Samsara.
