Tasmāt. Tasmāt means &amp;quot;therefore.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Therefore&amp;quot; means something has been said before. What is that? Tasmād guruṁ prapadyeta jijñāsuḥ śreya uttamam. As soon as we begin to ask about the higher nature... That propensity should be awakened. In the lower nature we are busy in the matter of eating, sleeping, defending and sense gratification. So we should not be satisfied, simply remaining in the lower nature. The human life is meant for developing the higher nature. The Vedānta-sūtra therefore says, athāto brahma jijñāsā. Now, now we have got the developed consciousness of human body, now, this is the time for asking about the Supreme Brahman. (talking in the background) (aside:) You ask them to speak slowly.

Sātvata means Vaiṣṇava. Nobody knows what is God. They sometimes accept &amp;quot;This is God, this is God, this is God, this is God.&amp;quot; No. God is the original Supreme Person, male, enjoyer. Male is called enjoyer, predominator. Puruṣaḥ purāṇaḥ. Parāvareśo manasaiva viśvaṁ sṛjaty avaty atti guṇair asaṅgaḥ. And para. Parāvaraḥ. Para means transcendental, and avara, avara means this material, inferior. Avara means inferior. And para means superior. That is explained in Bhagavad-gītā. Itas tu me... Bhūmir āpo &amp;#039;nalo vāyuḥ khaṁ buddhir mano eva ca, itas tu me... ([[Vanisource:BG 7.4|BG 7.4]]). Aparā. Apareyam. This material nature, consisting of earth, water, air, ether, mind, intelligence, ego: eight. This is avara. Avara means inferior. And there is another nature. Paras tasmāt tu bhāvo &amp;#039;nyaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 8.20|BG 8.20]]). In the Bhagavad-gītā you&amp;#039;ll find, there is another nature. That is para. Para. Tasmāt. Tasmāt means out of this avara, inferior nature, there is another, superior nature, para. The same thing is here also. Parāvareśaḥ. But Kṛṣṇa is īśa, the controller of both the energies, the spiritual energy and material energy. Parāvareśaḥ.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
