This inert energy is the material cause of this creation
67) Aatmaa Brahma srushtimulam mulaprakrutih sarvamidam .

(This inert energy remaining in deep sleep called as Aatman can be called as Brahman because this inert energy is the material cause of this creation. It is called as mula prakruti. Since, matter is also its form only, the body is also inert energy and thus basically continuous homogeneity is achieved as it is this entire creation).

The inert energy limited to the body is called as Aatman. Even the body or matter is basically inert energy and hence there is no discontinuity of the inert energy. Even the space is inert energy. In this way the homogeneous Brahman is the result. This greatest inert energy can be called as Brahman or Mula prakruti. Since, the body cannot limit the inert energy in basic sense, Aatman is simultaneously Brahman. This entire creation is generated from this mula prakruti, which is called as Brahman (Kaarya Brahman).
