29. Hereby all (the words) are explained, are explained (as declaring Brahman).

Hereby all the words such as Shunya, etc., also, are explained. The Mahopanishad has the following “He indeed is (called) Shunya; He indeed is Tuccha; He indeed is Abhava; He indeed is the subtle, invisible, inconceivable and unqualified.” “Vishnu the Supreme Lord is called Shunya; for being most high and perfectly blissful He belittles the happiness (of the wicked); He is called Tuccha; for he brings miseries to the unrighteous and is hidden from their view; the highest Lord is called Abhava; for He is not made or fully comprehended by anybody; and He is called Nasa for He is not consumed; and the connotation of all terms resting on Him, He becomes the meaning of all the words denoting different things; the wise that make use of them accept them as denoting other things in so far as they serve the purposes of communication.” The Mahakaurma.

The term ‘hereby’ means ‘by the whole body of doctrines and principles propounded above (for interpreting all the words as declaring Brahman) to wit, ‘All things are designated under His name for the reason that they are dependent upon Him’, and so on. In the Varaha Samhita this is said, “In a work propounding general doctrines (leading to final conclusions) at the end of each chapter, the wise sages repeat the words twice over, so that what has been said from the beginning of the chapter may receive emphasis”.
