16. (The scriptural passage) has reference to either of the two states of sleep and release; for (this) is evident.

The text quoted above: “For then indeed, etc.” refers either to the state of deep sleep or release; (and accordingly) the text speaks of that (crossing the Samsara, i.e., wordly existence). This is made manifest by the complementary passage thus: “Here (during this state) (the soul) being in the embrace of the Lord, the father ceases to be father; the mother ceases to be mother he is not pursued by virtue, he is not pursued by sin (Bri. VI-3-22).” The Brahmavaivarta says: “Those that have attained the final release (from corporeal existence), assume of their own accord luminous bodies and through them enjoy only pure pleasures and are never subject to miseries, etc. For they are rid of all miseries, as well as all undesirable merit together with demerit; and they are freed from all defects and consist only of intelligent essence, bliss, etc”.

17. The released obtains all wishes except the power of (creating) the world, etc.

The text says: “He has become immortal and attained all his wishes ” (A. A. II. 5. 4); still the text should be understood to mean that the release obtains all wishes other than those regarding the creation of the world, etc.”

Why (this exception)?

18. And because diva (the sold) is the topic of the passage and is fan away front (such power).

For the passage deals with the individual soul and such powers are very far from his reach. This is said in the Varaha: “There arises no wish in the released for obtaining bliss more than what is allotted to each of them or for creation and other activities; all other wishes they realise; for they never possess such high capability with regard to anything. Even though he may be a released soul, he does not obtain anything beyond his fitness, nor would he desire such a thing.”
