But since it is inert matter, it is not the remote cause of creation.&quot; Kavirāja Gosvāmī states as follows:<br /> <br /> :ataeva kṛṣṇa mūla-jagat-kāraṇa<br /> :prakṛti—kāraṇa yaiche ajā-gala-stana<br /> :(Cc. Ādi 5.61)<br /> <br /> Because Kāraṇārṇavaśāyī Viṣṇu is a plenary expansion of Kṛṣṇa, it is He who electrifies the matter to put it in motion. The example of electrification is quite appropriate. A piece of iron is certainly not fire, but when the iron is made red-hot, certainly it has the quality of fire through its burning capacity. Matter is compared to the piece of iron, and it is electrified or made red-hot by the glance or manipulation of the supreme consciousness of Viṣṇu. Only by such electrification is the energy of matter displayed in various actions and reactions. Therefore the inert matter is neither efficient nor the material cause of the cosmic manifestation.&lt;/span&gt;</div>
