Passage
Ramanuja's God was a personal being, who was full of love for his creation. He could even override the power of Karma to draw repentant sinners to him. Unlike the impersonal world soul of Sankara, which made the illusory universe in a sort of sport, Ramanuja's God needed man as man needed God. By forcing the sense, Ramanuja interpreted the words of Krishna to imply that just as man could not live without God, so God could not live without man.
