• Even after explaining the Royal Wisdom and the Royal Secret in the 9th chapter, God still felt like He had something left to say. Why the Supreme Soul describes His vibhuti (divine manifestations) in chapter 10 completely out of love.

•Only when envy goes away from one's life can one love; while envy is there then there is no love. When there is comparison then there is no love. This is because the birth of envy is comparison.

•How the Supreme Soul showed 17 of His vibhuti (divine manifestations) in the 8th to the 12th verses of the 7th chapter, 37 of His vibhuti (divine manifestations) in the 16th to 19th verses of the 9th chapter and now He will show 45 of His vibhuti (divine manifestations) in the 4th to 6th verses of this chapter.
