If you accept that prakriti-samsrishta means 'embodied', then surely it
follows that since jnanayoga is (according to Ramanuja's commentary on the
verse in question) not the svadharma of embodied beings, it can only be the
svadharma of those *not* embodied, i.e., discarnate.
As I said before, no further comments from me on this topic.
Ramanuja Dasa,
