Freedom in the realm of strength is mastery of everything that can be taken by effort. But strength too, which a moment ago shook "a hundred men of comprehension", stands in its own queue of causes: it must be fed with something.
So the ladder turns toward the very foundations — food, water, heat, space: Sanatkumāra will lead his pupil through the storerooms of the world, showing that these too are rungs of the spirit. In this lies a special beauty of the chapter: it does not divide the world into "low" and "high" but arranges everything — from bread to the Boundless — in one ascending chain of venerations.
