मन्त्रादिवद्वाऽविरोधः ॥ ५६ ॥
mantrādivadvā’virodhaḥ || 56 ||
mantrādivat—Like Mantras etc.; vā—or else; avirodhaḥ—is no contradiction.
56. Or else like Mantras etc. there is no contradiction (here).
Just as Mantras etc. mentioned in only one Sakha are used in another Sakha with respect to that particular rite, so also the Upasanas connected with particular rites in one Sakha of the Veda can be applied to the other Sakhas.
