Bhāṣya 2.2.10

Thus, the Wind-God alone exists as a supporter, with no other. The Lord Janardana, who is non-being and perceptible to touch, is the only independent one; no other exists who is situated within all beings. The various forms are merely reflections of the conscious-beings. But externally they are not His true form in any way. Indeed, these reflections are beginningless and endless.
