भूमा (big, endless), the sanctuary for eternal happiness, can be understood not by sight, hearing (or perception) but by being fully absorbed in Yoga. That Bhuma || भुमा is Amrutam, whatever is अल्पम् or dull-witted is Martya or mortal. As परम्ब्रह्म || Parambrahma is established by its own glory and not sheltered on anything, it is the root, and shelter of or the only source of Jagat.

The ill-informed consider their children, wives, friends, cartels, horses, elephants, money, gold, vehicles, land, gardens, home and other possessions  as bhuma (big). This is not my opinion, because all of these are sheltered by others. Real bhuma is not dependent on anything. Parambrahma is all pervasive and across all directions. On perceiving, reflecting and understanding this tattva one becomes a अत्मराति|atmarati (fully absorbed), अत्मक्रिद|atmakrida (whatever we do is offered to [[इश्वर|Ishvara]]) and अत्ममिथुन|atma-Mithun (emotionally free) and अत्मनन्द|atmananda (bliss in atma) (being attach to Brahmananda) and ultimately a स्वाराता|svarata (beyond any one to control). In other words, he becomes a jnani (wise person), free and achieves all the planets. The one who does not understand this principle remains dependent on others, and resides in temporary लोक|lokas. They become ordinary followers of worldly people and do not achieve freedom. The one who understands this principle achieves Prana।प्रणा (), Asha।अशा (), Smirti|स्म्रिति (), Akasha।आकाश (sky) from paramatma.   he achieves all, what is explained previously up till Namabrahma.

Dr. K. L. Narayanacharya's insights are as follow : "The ill-informed consider their children, wives, friends, cartels, horses, elephants, money, gold, vehicles, land, gardens, home and other possessions  as bhuma (big). This is not my opinion, because all of these are sheltered by others. Real bhuma is not dependent on anything. Parambrahma is all pervasive and across all directions. On perceiving, reflecting and understanding this tattva one becomes a अात्मराति || atmarati (fully absorbed), अात्मक्रिडा || atmakrida (whatever we do is offered to [[इश्वर|Ishvara]]) and अात्ममिथुन |atma-Mithun (emotionally free) and अात्मानन्द || atmananda (bliss in atma) (being attach to Brahmananda) and ultimately a स्वाराता || svarata (beyond any one to control). In other words, he becomes a jnani (wise person), free and achieves all the planets. The one who does not understand this principle remains dependent on others, and resides in temporary लोक || lokas. They become ordinary followers of worldly people and do not achieve freedom. The one who understands this principle achieves Prana || प्राणा (), Asha || अाशा (), Smirti || स्मृति (), Akasha || आकाश (sky) from paramatma. He achieves all, what is explained previously up till Namabrahma.

With the blessing of  Paramtma one can achieve everything. After  receiving  Svarajya, the jnani, after crossing death, being freed from diseases while experiencing no miseries will perceive everything and can get anything he wants.  The jnani, simaltaneously can extend in many bodies.

For the brahma prapti and all the required sadhana food is the main ingridient.  only if the food is pure then one's existence will be purified.  from such purification, one will expereince eternal smriti(remeberance), and eventually one will be freed from all the knot in the heart and achieve liberation.

In this way Narada muni who was freed from hate and attachment was taken to other side of the material ocean by Sanat kumar.  Therefore, he is called as "skandha."

Narada then asks Sanatkumara, "Hey swami, is there anything greater than Namaroopa, please enlighten me?"

Sanatkumara replies said, "Nama originated from Vak (Speech), hence Vak is bigger.  Nama is descriptive unlike Vak is on the tongue and other eight places.  It is the Indriya (senses) which reveals all the Varnas (alpabhets). Vak enables one to master the Vedas including Rik as well as all other knowledge (Vidya), the planets, the five elements, the Devas, the humans, all living beings. It provides the knowledge and discriminative intelligence to understand Satya (), dharma () and adharma ().  Notably, without using for  vak for such reason, the self study,  Artha (), Sravana () and knowledge is not possible. Therefore Vak is also Brahman and must be worshipped.  Depending upon the depth of of Vak, to that extend you will get freedom, oh Narada."
