Among the class of jIva-s the gender differentiation as feminine, masculine and neutral genders need not be exemplified.  ParamAtma is present in all genders but He is Himself neither of those genders. He calls Himself by their names in their respective forms and makes them do their tasks. But He is neither of them.

 

Among the jaDa-s He is present in the paMchabhUta-s i.e. Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Sky and He is their Regulator but he is strangely different from them.

 

The Sun and the Moon who provide light to the world and are the nEtrAbhimAni-s but they are not ParamAtma. He exists as kAlAMtaRyAmi in Time – turning the wheel of Time. He is present in satva, rAjasa and tAmasa guNa-s as shrI, bhU and duRgA in their abhimAni rUpa and He is their niyAmaka too. He is present in Nature and promotes sR^iShTi and He is their niyAmaka but Nature is not ParamAtma.

 

“Even ramA dEvi , Brahma and other dEvata-s are unable to realize the unimaginably extraordinary capabilities of ParamAtma then how can mortals like us can understand or imagine of Him?” asks JagannAtha dAsa. (Meaning – we cannot understand Him)
