492 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 4, Ch. 12

there is no such distinction as hands and legs, for all of them belong to the
whole body, and all the parts working together constitute the whole body.
Similarly, when the living entities are in Krgna consciousness, there is no
such distinction as “I” and “you” because everyone is engaged in the
service of the Lord. Since the Lord is absolute, the services are also abso-
lute; even though the hand is working one way and the leg is working in
another way, since the purpose is the Supreme Personality of Godhead,
they are all one. This is not to be confused with the statement by the
Mayavadi philosopher that ‘everything is one.” Real knowledge is that
hand is hand, leg is leg, body is body, and yet all together they are one.
As soon as the living entity thinks that he is independent, his conditional
material existence begins. The conception of independent existence is,
therefore, like a dream. One has to be in Krsna consciousness, his original
position. Then he can be freed from material bondage.

TRANSLATION

My dear Dhruva, come forward. May the Lord always grace you with
good fortune. The Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is beyond our
sensual perception, is the Supersoul of all living entities, and thus all
entities are one, without distinction. Begin, therefore, to render service
unto the transcendental form of the Lord, who is the ultimate shelter of all
living entities.

PURPORT

Here the word vigraham, “having specific form,” is very significant, for
it indicates that the Absolute Truth is ultimately the Supreme Personality
