again gives a chance to the bewildered conditioned souls to get free from this false ego, and that is why the material creation takes place at intervals.

The false ego is represented in three different modes—goodness, passion and ignorance.

When the material creation is manifested, it is not meant for them. The eternally liberated souls are called  nitya-muktas ,
