IMHO, you doing it in wrong way, I presume you are using some Linux:
create ~/texmf/tex/latex/ben
and put there your `commands.tex', then `\input{commands.tex}' will pick
up that file.

Of course it is true for LaTeX, if you use plain TeX use
`~/texmf/tex/plain/ben' directorythen.

Don't do it. If it is Ok to use in isolated environment and only once
the TEXINPUTS variable it is bad practice.

P.S. I'm using org with latex math code and all works fine (I'm using very
customized setup but it works very well).
