Questions answered are:
1a. It is explained that there are 2 causes to create this material world - to facilitate enjoyment and liberation. How to understand that though the living entity is trying to enjoy in this world and the Lord is facilitating it still the jīva doesn't enjoy, all though he wants to enjoy?
1b. The kind of enjoyment that living entities are experiencing in this world is not real enjoyment?
1c. At the same time Lord can make arrangement for eternal enjoyment of the living entities in the material world, then why is not the Lord making that arrangement?
2a. Those who are living in the material world - they are anādi and bahir-mukha, so the living entities which are against the Lord how can they develop attraction for the Lord because they are against the Lord completely?
2b. Those who are completely in the mode of ignorance?
3. In this śloka ātma-prasiddhaye has been explained as self-realization or ultimate liberation but it has not been told explicitly that bhakti is the way out of this world.
4a. Regarding the word bahir-mukha, we understand that as long as we are in the material world we are covered by ignorance, avidyā, so does bahir-mukha mean hatred and aversion to the Lord or does it mean that I am not aware of the Lord and therefore attracted to what I know that is material senses.
4b. If it active ignorance - that I don't want to cultivate a relationship with the Lord then it is like the man who is pretending to sleep no matter what ajñāna-sukṛti you provide he is not ready to wake up. But if it is ignorance not because of the desire to be ignorant then then all the ajñāna-sukṛti starts working because he develops higher taste and starts developing attraction for the Lord. So how do we understand the word bahir-mukha?
5a. The Lord knows that the ultimate happiness that a jīva can have is in relation to himself and he sees that the jīvas in the material world don't have a relationship with him and he has given various processes by which they can elevate. Now when we take jñāna-mārga, we know that jñāna does not automatically lead to bhakti. So if they get liberated then what is the Lord doing for the liberated beings to take up bhakti.
5b. Those who are in Brahman?
6a. Regarding reading Bhāgavatam, you said that we must focus on the whole of Bhāgavatam and not just on the 10th canto. But we find that our ācāryas are also selectively commenting only on the 10th canto - like Sanātana Gosvāmī and Baladeva Vidyabhūṣaṇa. So as sādhakas who are practicing we will naturally start focusing on the 10th canto...
6b. So do it mean that we gain the philosophy from the remaining cantos and pastimes from the 10th canto.
7. Regarding devotees interpreting, we would be fortunate if some senior points out that we are deviating but what if we are a subordinate and find that our senior is deviating or interpreting?
8. What is the difference between prakṛti, pradhāna and mahat-tattva?
9. Material world is created for 2 purposes - enjoyment and liberation. If we take enjoyment perspective then whatever activities we do in the mode of ignorance or passion it ultimately leads to suffering only so how can we say that it is made for enjoyment?
10. How does an individual soul develop the desire to go back to godhead? What responsibilities should he take for that?
11. This material world is dead matter, unconscious, it does not have any guṇas then how from dead matter 3 guṇas are coming?
12. Material body has jñānendriyas, karmendriyas and so many organs. What are the components of spiritual body?
13. Is matter different from 3 guṇas?
