Lord Krsna’s Daily Activities 109

different from our legs. The hand cannot act like the leg, nor can the leg
act like the hand. The eyes cannot hear like the ears, nor can the ears see
like the eyes. All these differences are technically called svajtiya vijtiya.

The bodily limitation whereby one part of the body cannot act as
another part is totally absent in the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
There is no difference between His body and Himself. He is completely
spiritual, and therefore there is no material difference between His body
and His soul. Similarly, He is not different from His millions of incarnations
and plenary expansions. Baladeva is the first expansion of Krsna, and from
Baladeva expand Sankarsana, Vasudeva, Pradyumna and Aniruddha. From
Sankarsana there is again an expansion of Narayana, and from Narayana
there is a second quadruple expansion of Sankarsana, Vasudeva, Pradyumna
and Aniruddha. Similarly there are innumerable expansions of Krsna, but
all of them are one. Krsna has many incarnations, such as Lord Nrsimha,
Lord, Boar, Lord Fish and Lord Tortoise, but there is no difference
between Krsna’s original two-handed form, like that of a human being,
and these incarnations of gigantic animal forms. Nor is there any difference
between the action of one part of His body and that of another. His hands
can act as His legs, His eyes can act as His ears, or His nose can act as
another part of His body. Krsna’s smelling and eating and hearing are all
the same. We limited living entities have to use a particular part of our
body for a particular purpose, but there is no such distinction for Krsna.
In the Brahma-samhita it is said, angani yasya sakalendriya-vrtti: He can
perform the activities of one limb with any other limb. So by analytical
study of Krsna and His person, it is concluded that He is the complete
whole. When He meditates, therefore, He meditates on Himself. The
self-meditation by ordinary men, designated in Sanskrit as so*ham,is simply
imitation. Krsna may meditate on Himself because He is the complete
whole, but we cannot imitate Him and meditate on ourselves. Our body is
a designation; Krsna’s body is not a designation. Krsna’s body is also
Krsna. There is no existence of anything foreign in Krsna. Whatever
there is in Krsna is also Krsna. He is therefore the supreme, indestructible
complete existence, or the supreme truth.

Krsna’s existence is not relative existence. Everything else but Krsna is a
relative truth, but Krsna is the Supreme Absolute Truth. Krsna does not
depend on anything but Himself for His existence. Our existence, however
is relative. For example, only when there is the light of the sun, the moon
or electricity are we able to see. Our seeing, therefore, is relative, and the
light of the sun and moon and electricity is also relative; they are called il-
luminating only because we see them as such. Dependence and relativity
