Text 10] Entanglement in Fruitive Activities 1377
TRANSLATION
After experiencing the inhabitable time of the three modes of material
nature, known as two parardhas, Lord Brahma closes the material universe,
which is covered by layers of earth, water, air, fire, ether, mind, ego, etc.,
and goes back to Godhead.
PURPORT
The word avyakrtam is very significant in this verse. The same meaning
is stated in Bhagavad-gitd, in the word sandtana. This material world is
vyakyta, or subject to changes, and it finally dissolves. But after the
dissolution of this material world, the manifestation of the spiritual world,
the sandtana-dhama, remains. That spiritual sky is called avyakrta, that
which does not change, and there the Supreme Personality of Godhead
resides. When, after ruling over the material universe under the influence of
the time element, Lord Brahma desires to dissolve it and enter into the
kingdom of God, others then enter with him.
