19. As the effect (the released state) is a result which is said to be none of the world, the qualities to be comprehended and contemplated in Brahman should be, (none of the world), different from those of the world.

In the text, “The qualities of Brahman are not like those of the world; therefore only qualities not found in others (in the world) are to be contemplated in Him for the result of the contemplation, viz., heavenly existence is different from everything of the world;” the nature of the effect, viz., Mukti (release) being thus described, only the qualities that do not form part of the world’s nature are to be contemplated.

20. Still, the comprehension (in the case of some) must be only of general attributes, the special not being different from, (being implied by, them).

Even among the extraordinary attributes, the comprehension must take place only of the general attributes but not of the occasional attributes separately such as ‘being three-footed’; for they are implied and included in the general attributes of the eternal prowess, etc., (of the Lord).

21. (But in the case of Brahma), the same (i.e., comprehension) even of the other attributes is admitted, on account of their being (eternally) connected (with Brahman), (in his comprehension).

Such qualities as ‘being three-footed’, etc., being connected with the Supreme and hence being eternal are fit to be comprehended (in detail) during meditation (by Brahma, the four-faced). This is said in the Brihat Tantra also: “Doubtless the quality of ‘being three-footed’ and all others are to be comprehended only by Brahma; and others are not entitled to it; for he is the most exalted by his virtues of all the eligible.”

22. (The term Atman) may or may not (connote all the qualities) according to difference of (qualification or eligibility).

The comprehension of all the qualities by the term Atman may or may not arise, as the eligible differ (in their capabilities and qualification).
