Brahma-Sūtra 2.2.25

English of translation of Brahmasutra 2.2.25 by Roma Bose:

“And on account of remembrance.”

Nimbārka’s commentary (Vedānta-pārijāta-saurabha):

And on account of the recognition, viz. ‘This is that’, this doctrine is untrue.

Śrīnivāsa’s commentary (Vedānta-kaustubha)

For this too the doctrine of momentariness is not reasonable. Why? “On account of remembrance”, i.e. on account of the remembrance of an entity, perceived by one. Hence an eternal soul, the experiencer, must of necessity be acknowledged, otherwise the cessation of all practical activities will result.
