Hey Madhava Gosh Prabhu, while I was proofreading a copy of Jiva Goswami's

Sri Paramatma-sandarbha, I ran accross this analogy that, due you your

association, was easy for me to understand. I thought you might like it too.

 

(view with tamal or other similar diactitic font to read correct diacritics).

 

Anuccheda 93

Text 1

evam-såñöädi-lélä-traye sämänyato yojite ‘pi punar viçeñataù saàçayya

siddhäntaù kriyate sthüëänikhanana-nyäyena.

 

evam-thus; såñöa-material creation; ädi-beginning with; lélä-pastimes;

traye-in three; sämänyataù-in general; yojite-engaged; api-even; punaù-again;

viçeñataù-specifically; saàçayya-doubting; siddhäntaù-the conclusion;

kriyate-is done; sthüëänikhanana-nyäyena.-by the example of repeatedly pushing

the post

into the ground.

 

In this way it has been explained in a general way that the Supreme

Personality of Godhead engages in pastimes of creating, maintaining, and

destroying the material universes. Because some readers may still doubt that

this is

the truth, we will, as a fence-maker will again and again push his fence-posts

into the ground to make them secure, present more arguments to prove this truth

 

beyond any doubts.
