Bhautik taap
Bhautik taap (भौतिक ताप), also referred to as aadhibhautik taap (आधिभौतिक ताप), are material sufferings caused by other humans, animals, insects etc.
Every Jeev, before God realization, is subjected to these afflictions. However after God-realization, even though the jeev lives on this earth, these sufferings cannot affect the Jeev (आत्मा या जीव). And in the divine abode Maya can't enter hence these afflictions have no place there.
