In this discourse, the nature of Maya is described as having three principles, and the quality of near insurmountability. Anandamurti states that Maya belongs to ''[[Parama Purusa|Parama Puruśa]]'', is unable to do anything without the wish of ''Parama Puruśa'', and is completely dependent on ''Parama Puruśa''. He also describes Maya as the Cosmic Ocean. He states that safe passage through this Cosmic Ocean can only occur within the shelter of ''Parama Puruśa''. He describes ''Parama Puruśa'' as a ship designed to cross this Cosmic Ocean. Anandamurti also defines the qualities of both a jinanii and a devotee, with jinaniis solely having intellectual pursuits, while devotees have only love for ''Parama Puruśa''. He says it is this love which will allow only devotees to board this ship and fearlessly cross this Cosmic Ocean. <ref name="Mayametam"/>
