for the neophyte who cannot understand Krsna as the
Supreme Spiritual Entity. The Virata Form is composed
of the entire material ingredients of the Universe, seen as
the body of the Lord—but it is not His eternal Form.

Visnu-tattva—A plenary portion of the Supreme Lord, Sri Krsna.
These expansions are the same in potency, but Krsna is
the original Personality of Godhead. For example, many
candles may be lit from one candle and the candles are
equal in illumination to the original, but they are still
not the original. The Original Personality of Godhead,
the Source of all Visnu-tattvas is Sri Krsna.

Vrndavana—Place in India where Lord Krsna displayed His
eternal, transcendental Pastimes 5,000 years ago. Vrnda-
vana is also the name of Krsna’s Abode in the topmost
spiritual planet, Goloka. The pure devotee is able to see
the Vrndavana within this material world as non-dif-
ferent from Vrndavana in the spiritual sky. His Land,
Vrndavana, is non-different from Himself.

Vydasadeva—The literary incarnation of Krsna who compiled
all the Vedic literatures.

Yogis—Those who practice the yoga process (linking with the Su-
preme). The purpose of the Hatha- and Astanga-yoga
systems, i.e., sitting postures, breath coritrol, meditation,
is to control the senses and see the Form of the Per-
sonality of Godhead within the heart.

Y oga-bhrastas—Souls fallen from the path of self realization.
