518 Srimad Bhagavatam [Canto 2, Ch. 9

outside of everything, situated in the kingdom of God (Vaikunthaloka) as
described before. This is very nicely stated in the Brahma-samhita as
follows:

dnanda-cinmaya-rasa-pralibhavitabhis
tabhir ya eva nijariipataya kalabhih
goloka eva nivasaty akhilatma-bhito
govindam ddi-purusam tam aham bhajami (Bs. 5.37)

“T worship the Personality of Godhead Govinda, who, by expansion of His
internal potency of transcendental existence, knowledge and bliss, enjoys
in His own and expanded forms. Simultaneously He enters into every atom
of the creation.”

This expansion of His plenary parts is also more definitely explained in
the same Brahma-samhita as follows:

eko ‘py asau racayitum jagad-anda-kotim

yac-chaktir asti jagad-anda-caya yad-antah
andantarastha-paramanu-cayantarastharn

govindam adi-purusam tam aham bhajami (Bs. 5.35)

“| worship the Personality of Godhead Govinda, who, by one of His
plenary portions, enters into the existence of every universe and every
particle of the atoms and thus manifests His infinite energy all over the
matcrial creation unlimitedly.”

Brahman is thus all-pervading, and therefore they conclude that there is no
possibility of His personal form. Herein lies the mystery of His transcen-

and one who is surcharged with such transcendental love of Godhead can
see the Personality of Godhead in every atom and every movable or
immovable object without any difficulty. And at the same time he can see
the Personality of Godhead in His abode of Goloka, enjoying eternal
pastimes with His eternal associates, who are also expansions of His
transcendental existence. This vision is the real mystery of spiritual know-
ledge, as is stated by the Lord in the beginning, “sa-rahasyam tad-angam ca.”
This mystery is the most confidential part of the knowledge of the
Supreme, and it is impossible to be discovered by the mental speculators
by dint of intellectual gymnastics. The mystery can be revealed through
the process recommended by Brahmaji in his Brahma-samhita as follows:
