Earth, water, fire, air, ether, mind, intelligence and false ego, all together these eight constitute the lord’s separated material energies.
His Divine Grace A.C BhaktiVedanta Swami Prabhupad explains that the science of god analysis is the constitution of god and his diverse energies, material nature is called prakriti or the energy of the lord in his different purusa incarnations (expansions).
For material creation, lord Krsna’s planery expansion assumes three Visnus. The first one Maha-Visnu, creates the total material energy known as Maha-Tattva. The second, Garbhodakasayi Visnu enters into all the universes to create diversities in each of them. The third, Ksirodakasayi Visnu is diffused as the all pervading super soul in all the universes and is known as Paramatma. He is present even within the atoms. Anyone who knows these three Visnus can be liberated from material entanglement.
The material world is a temporary manifestation of one of the energies of the lord. All the activities of the material world are directed by these three Visnu expansions of lord Krsna. These purusas are called incarnations. Generally one who does not know the science of god (Krsna) assumes that this material world is for the enjoyment of the living entities and the living entities are the purusas- the causes, controllers and enjoyers of the material energy.
According to Bhagavad-Gita this atheistic conclusion is false. It is stated in Bhagavad-Gita the that Krsna is the original cause of the material manifestation. Srimad-Bhagavatam also confirms this. The ingredients of the material manifestation are separated energies of the lord. Even the Brahmajyothi, which is the ultimate goal of the impersonalists, is a spiritual energy manifested in the spiritual sky.
There are no spiritual diversities in the Brahmajyothi as there are in Vaikunthalokas, and the impersonalist accepts this Brahmajyothi as the ultimate external goal. The Paramatma manifestation is also temporary all pervasive aspect of the Ksirodakasayi visnu. The Paramatma manifestation is not eternal in the spiritual world. There fore the factual absolute truth is the supreme personality of godhead Krsna. He is the complete energetic person and he possesses different separated and internal energy.
In the material energy, the principal manifestations are eight as mentioned in the beginning. Out of these the first five manifestations namely earth, water, fire, air and sky are called the gigantic creations or the gross creations, within which the five sense objects are included. They are the manifestations of physical sound, touch, form, taste and smell. Material science compromises these ten items and nothing more. But the other three items namely mind, intelligence and false ego, are neglected by the materialists. Philosophers who deals with mental activities are also not perfect in knowledge because they do not know the ultimate source, Krsna.
The false ego-“I AM”, and “IT IS MINE”-, which constitute the basic principle of material existence includes ten sense organs for the material activities. Intelligence refers to the total material creation, called the Maha-Tattva. Therefore from the eight separated energies of the lord are the manifest the twenty four elements of the material world, which are the subject matter of Sankhya atheistic philosophy they are originally offshoots from Krsna’s energies they are separated from him. But atheistic Sankhya philosophers with a poor fund of knowledge do not know Krsna as the cause of all cause.
