When you try to prepare a meal, you may have with you all the materials and ingredients you need but unless you have the fire in the hearth, you cannot cook and make an edible meal out of it. So too with life, Jnana (spiritual wisdom) is the fire which makes the material world and the external activities, edible and tasty, healthy and joyful. That joy is called Ananda; it is uplifting, it is illuminating, it is constructive. Iha-nivaasam (life in the world) is for Para-praapthi (attaining salvation). That is to say, life 'here' is for the sake of reaching 'there'.
