Because we are all concerned with the feelings of consciousness, of happiness and distress. Everyone is embarrassed. Everyone is trying that, "I shall become happy in this way."

So you dismantle this matter, material, there will be no more distress, and nirvāṇa—finish. Nirvāṇa means finish.

So that spiritual construction is not known to other philosophers than the Vaiṣṇava philosophers.
