As Brahman causes things to be seen, etc.) by the soul (with the organs) which are His own instruments, (there is no conflict between the text, as may be seen) from the Word.

15. (Brahman) that dwells in light and other (elements as the inner guide), is the ruler of (the eye, etc.), organs (which are things effected) out of the same elements; for Scripture says that.

That which dwells in Light (Agni) etc., viz., Brahman causes (the various functions) to be discharged by these organs, and this is distinctly stated in such texts as, “He who dwells in Prana and so on” (Bri. V. 7. 16).

Next the Sutrakara answers the question how the organs have in Shruti come to be called the instruments of the soul.

The Supreme Lord causes everything to be done by the soul furnished with what are His own instruments (i.e., organs); hence no conflict arises between the different statements of Scripture. For the Bhallaveya Shruti says: “Because the Lord causes things to be seen by this self (the soul), (the soul whom the Lord endows with some power over the organs], with the eye, to be heard with the ear, to be understood by the mind, to be judged by Budhi (the faculty of judgment); therefore these two are called the moving and non-moving.” The Varaha Purana has the following: “Brahman the supreme ruler causes everything to be done by the organs (such as the ear, etc.), for the sake of the soul, and that in consequence of His own will; and on this account the organs are spoken of, the Wise say, as belonging to the soul. Further, the Supreme Lord of lords does not make the Chief Prana act in obedience to the will of the soul, but only makes him work according to His own Supreme will; therefore the preeminence of Prana the Chief is settled.”
