*Akhilaṁ jagat*. All universal manifestation that you are seeing. They are all expansion of the energy. The example is just like the fire expands by his heat, fire expands by his light. Similarly, *parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate* [*Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad* 6.8] the Supreme Lord has various multi-energies and they are displaying. So, one should understand the existence of the Supreme Lord by experience of the expansion of His energy. And His energy and He is not different. Therefore, a self-realised person can see God everywhere. Because everywhere His energy is expanded so whenever he sees the energy or experiences the energy, he sees God.

**[[spoken/721130bg.hyd|Bg 2.26 — November 30, 1972, Hyderabad]]**
**Prabhupāda:** > atha cainaṁ nitya-jātaṁ > nityaṁ vā manyase mṛtam > tathāpi tvaṁ mahā-bāho > nainaṁ śocitum arhasi > [[bg/2/26|[Bg. 2.26] ]]
So this is the opinion of the modern scientists or the Buddha philosophy, that soul, there is nothing like soul separately, but by combination of matter, at a certain stage, the living symptoms are manifest. And as it is combination of several chemicals, so it is also finished as soon as the body is finished. There is no..., nothing as soul. That is their opinion.
So for argument's sake, Kṛṣṇa says, "If you think like that, that the body is all in all, by certain condition the material elements combine, and again it is finished..." So Arjuna was declining to fight. So the, for argument's sake, Kṛṣṇa says that "If you think like that, the body's everything, so it will be destroyed automatically, so why you are so much afraid?" Suppose I have combined some chemical and it is destroyed... Say, bottles of chemicals, some way or other, it is destroyed. So who laments for that? You can purchase another bottle. That is simply for argument's sake. Actually, that is not the position.

"[My dear son, Kapila,] after all, I am a woman. It is very difficult for me to understand the Absolute Truth because my intelligence is not very great. But if You will kindly explain it to me, even though I am not very intelligent, I can understand it and thereby feel transcendental happiness."

**Prabhupāda:** ...can dance, and as soon as you say, "Chant Hare Kṛṣṇa and dance," immediately they reject.
**Gopāla Kṛṣṇa:** Stop. They spend hours and hours practicing how to learn to dance. They go through so much *tapasya.*
**Caitya-guru:** In Mauritius on Diwali there was a very big festival the government arranged. There were more than forty thousand people, and they called one singer, Mukesh, from India, especially for that program. So when he was singing, everybody was making noise. As soon as the Hare Kṛṣṇa people went on the stage, everybody become quiet. Everybody was clapping, they were telling me. [break]
