What is the meaning of 'Paraavara' in the hymn 'Tasmin drushte Paraavare'?

[Shri S. Phani Kumar asked:-]

Swami replied:- Parāvara means human incarnation of God because the meaning of the above quotation is “When God is seen”. For human beings, God can be seen only in the human incarnation. For energetic beings, God can be seen only in the energetic incarnation. The word ‘Parāvara’ has three meanings according to the Sanskrit grammar:-

i) In Pañcamī Tatpuruṣa:- God, who is greater than the awareness or Paraaprakruti (Parāyāh varaḥ). Vara here means greater than Paraa or Paraa Prakruti or awareness. Parā Prakruti means awareness or soul, which is part of creation.

ii) In Śaṣṭhī Tatpuruṣa:- God, who is the husband (bridegroom) of awareness. Vara means bridegroom or husband or maintainer. God is the husband or the maintainer of the entire creation and hence, He is the husband of even the awareness that is created by God (Parāyāh varaḥ).

iii) In Karmadhāraya Samāsa:- God, who is in the status of creation (medium) after getting mediated, is always lower than His original unimaginable status. As incarnation, God is taken as both divine as well as a human being (Paraśca asau avaraśca). Parāvara = Para + Avara. Avara means person of lower level. Para means person of higher level. As God, He is Para or the highest state. As the medium (human being), He is Avara or lower status.
