phy, which is the background of liberation, and she satsified Him with the
following verses of prayer.
PURPORT
The system of philosophy enunciated by Lord Kapila before His mother
is the background for situation on the spiritual platform. The specific
significance of this system of philosophy is stated herein as siddhi-
bhumim-—it is the background of salvation. People who are suffering in
this material world because they are conditioned by the material energy
can easily get freedom from the clutches of matter by understanding the
sankhya philosophy enunciated by Lord Kapila. By this system of philoso-
phy, one can immediately become free, even though one is situated in
this material world. That stage is called jivan-mukti. This means that one is
liberated even though one stays with his material body. That happened for
Devahtti, the mother of Lord Kapila, and she therefore satisfied the Lord
by offering her prayers. Anyone who understands the basic principle of
sankhya philosophy is elevated in devotional service and becomes fully
Krsna conscious or liberated, even within this material world.
