**Mūlāchāra**
Sanatkumar Mahendra is touched by the gods. 1139
The gods in the lower realm, as well as in the higher realms, are observed and known based on their forms. 1140
In the Brahma realm, the superior Brahma, and in the higher realms, there are divine beings in these classes that are to be understood based on their forms. 1140
Meaning - It is understood that the gods residing in the classes of Brahmakharg, Brahmottara, Lantava, and Kapishta gain the pleasure of sensory enjoyment simply by seeing these divine forms.
From the extremely pleasurable realms where the well-formed gods and goddesses reside, the pleasure of sensory enjoyment is achieved by merely listening to their words. 1141
In the realms of Shukra, Maha-Shukra, Shatara, and Sahasrara, these divine beings are to be understood based on their verbal expressions. 1141
Meaning - The gods in the four classes of Shukra, Maha-Shukra, Shatara, and Sahasrara experience the delight of sensory enjoyment just by hearing the words of the divine beings and celestial nymphs.
In the realms of Anandapanadaka, Aranaka, and Achyu, the established regulations ensure that these gods experience enjoyment through mere mental invocation. 1142
In the realms of Ananda, Pranata, Arana, and Achyuta, the divine beings derive the pleasure of enjoyment through mental contemplation in accordance with their regulations. 1142
Meaning - The gods in all four realms—Ananda, Pranata, Arana, and Achyuta—receive the pleasure of sensual enjoyment solely through intent established by the rules.
However, these gods are indeed governed by regulations and thus engage in pure contemplation. 1143
In all aspects of contemplation, they are endowed with infinite virtues and qualities. 1143
