Meaning -
God, the Lord of final emancipation is in truth the creator of all that hath been and what yet shall be ; and what grows on earth.
-
The word (अन्न) has been wrongly interpreted as food and nourishment. Colebrooke translates the line : He is that, which grows by nourishment. God is not a material object which requires nourishment for growth. He is Everlasting and Immaterial. Muir renders it thus : He is also the Lord of immortality since by food He expands: Professors Ludwig and Wilson also give the same explanation. Sayana interprets it thus ; He is the Lord or Distributor of immortality because He becomes the visible world in order that living beings may obtain the fruits of their actions and gain moksha or final liberation from their bonds ! This interpretation is highly irrational and illogical. God being immaterial cannot assume a visible form. He is spoken of in the vedas as अकायम् without a body. The interpretation of the western scholars is mostly based on that of Sayana. Swami Dayananda interprets अन्न as Earth, out of which grow all trees, vegetables, and corns.
