‘Then how do some insult you and what is their destiny?’—‘They insult’ and so on. Do they take a human body? A body appearing human to the foolish? Not truly the human-form. It is said that those attached to the dharma of liberation take a body bound in this world for a while. All are pervaded by the five elements and by divine intellects. The Lord is the creator of the world, the supreme Narayana, the Virat. He is the inner self of beings, both with qualities and beyond qualities. The unmanifest at dissolution of beings is heard of in the scripture—(citations). Regarding avatara the same is said; hence avatara are not separate in doubt. He manifests many forms for origination, manifestation and continued existence: Varaha, Narasimha, Vamana, the human form, etc. In that very first creation-period the avatara-forms are said to be divisions of his creative aspect; therefore there is no error from their not-being human, etc. ‘He is the great Lord of being’—thus ‘bhutamaheshvara’. In Sama-veda (citation) he is described as the infinite, full-form Lord whose greatness is ineffable. He is the priest of Brahman, of Brahma-body, the sovereign king—(citation in moksha-dharma).
