called Vivarta. From the abstract Brahman, the
multifarious world cannot take its rise. Then what is
the phenomenon of the world? Actually, the world is

शूद्रायां वैश्यादुत्पन्नः करणी। तस्यां करण्यां माहिष्यादुत्पन्नो
रथकारः ।
तथां च याज्ञवल्क्यः । माहिष्येण करण्यां तु रथकार:
प्रजायते । इति ।

husband is 'Karani' When a son is born from Karani
and a Mahişya husband, he is called a Rathakāra.
