your maaya started her duties right earnest

मायासन्निहितोऽप्रविष्टवपुषा साक्षीति गीतो भवान्
भेदैस्तां प्रतिबिंबतो विविशिवान् जीवोऽपि नैवापरः।
कालादिप्रतिबोधिताथ भवता सञ्चोदिता च स्वयम्
माया सा खलु बुद्धितत्त्वमसृजद्योऽसौ महानुच्यते॥४
श्रीमन्नारायणीये दशकम् ५
मायासन्निहितः  अप्रविष्टवपुषा उपलक्षितः  भवान् साक्षि इति गीतः।  तां भेदैः प्रतिबिम्बतः भवान् एव विविशिवान्।  जीवः अपि न अपरः।  अथ कालादि प्रतिबोधिता भवता सञ्चोदिता च सा माया खलु बुद्धितत्त्वं असृजत्।  यः असौ महान् उच्यते।

bhedaistāṁ pratibiṁbato viviśivān jīvo'pi naivāparaḥ|

māyāsannihitaḥ  apraviṣṭavapuṣā upalakṣitaḥ  bhavān sākṣi iti gītaḥ|  tāṁ bhedaiḥ pratibimbataḥ bhavān eva viviśivān|  jīvaḥ api na aparaḥ|  atha kālādi pratibodhitā bhavatā sañcoditā ca sā māyā khalu buddhitattvaṁ asṛjat|  yaḥ asau mahān ucyate|

I am continuing Narayaneeyam from where I had stopped about two months ago. The point where I stopped was the process of creation initiated by the divine will of Krishna the Guruvayurappa. 

" Your presence is very much manifest in your power of delusion (maayaa) but  you are not a part of that maya, as you have not entered the realms of maya physically.  Therefore you are always sung as the witness to the working of your own maya.   (It is like an artist taking out his palette and paints and brush and adding his ideas and transferring them to a canvas but the artist himself is not a part of the picture.. but there is that subtle something between the creator and the created.)  The jeevatma who has entered maya with some different upaadis or conditions is also none other than you.  After the deluge, the maya which was aroused by time, adhrustam (the unseen inherent force) and her own inherent attributes decided by you and further  who was sufficiently prodded by you Guruvayurappa,  created the tattwa of buddhi or congnition all by herself.   That buddhitattwam is called the tattwam of Mahat."


Maya is an integral part of the Lord but the lord is not essentially entering that area of maya and doing the creations.  He is only the witness. But the inherent nature of Maya coupled with the tacit prodding of the Lord could create almost anything, and she started the creation process.  The first thing when a new set up is established is to have an index or master list.. the cognizion.  This she created. first.   More creations would be seen  getting added to the kitty in the subsequent slokas.  This part of Naryaneeyam is very abstruse and it was pat on this point that it got stuck up.  But without understanding the process of working of divine will through his own powers of illusion(maya), further understanding of Bhagavatham or Narayaneeyam is difficult for a scholar.  For the bhakta, we can just say the Lord started his process of creation through the agency of maya, and the first creation was the Mahat tattwa.  This knowledge is sufficient.
