अतो भेददृशा दीनामङ्गीकृत्योपदिश्यते ।
ब्रह्मेदमेते जीवा वै वेति वाचामयं क्रमः ॥ ६ ॥

ato bhedadṛśā dīnāmaṅgīkṛtyopadiśyate |
brahmedamete jīvā vai veti vācāmayaṃ kramaḥ || 6 ||

Hence the language of dualists and pluralists is adopted in monotheistic doctrines, as the expressions, this one is Brahma, or divine soul, and these others are the living souls, as they are in use in the popular language.
