To remove finally all doubts from the mind of Mandana, Sankara then thought of Jaimini himself, and the latter appeared in person and confirmed the interpretation of Sankara saying: 'Am I not a direct disciple of Sri Veda Vyasa? When he has concluded fromt he Vedas that they teach us about the one conscious Being, how did you think it possible that iI who sat at his feet would preach any doctrine contrary to his?' He then introduced Sankara to Mandana as an incarnation of Siva Himself, assumed for the better propagation of a right knowledge of the truths of the Vedanta.

That marks the end of the debate.
