“Superficially we see that these puruá¹£as have a relationship with mÄyÄ, but above them, in the fourth dimension, is Lord Kṛṣṇa, who has no contact with the material energy.
The three puruá¹£as — KÄraṇodakaÅ›ÄyÄ« Viṣṇu, GarbhodakaÅ›ÄyÄ« Viṣṇu and KṣīrodakaÅ›ÄyÄ« Viṣṇu — all have a relationship with the material energy, called mÄyÄ, because through mÄyÄ They create the material cosmos. These three puruá¹£as, who lie on the KÄraṇa, Garbha and Kṣīra oceans respectively, are the Supersoul of everything that be: KÄraṇodakaÅ›ÄyÄ« Viṣṇu is the Supersoul of the collective universes, GarbhodakaÅ›ÄyÄ« Viṣṇu is the Supersoul of the collective living beings, and KṣīrodakaÅ›ÄyÄ« Viṣṇu is the Supersoul of all individual living entities. Because all of Them are somehow attracted to the affairs of the material energy, They can be said to have some affection for mÄyÄ. But the transcendental position of ÅšrÄ« Kṛṣṇa Himself is not even slightly tinged by mÄyÄ. His transcendental state is called turÄ«ya, or the fourth-dimensional stage.
