Sūtra translation

And because diva (the sold) is the topic of the pass- age 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 Vârâha: “ 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.”
