162 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 7, Ch. 3
Vedic literatures like the Upanisads, and from all the sub-limbs of
the original Vedic knowledge, form your external body. You are
Hiranyagarbha, the reservoir of the universe, but nonetheless,
being situated as the supreme controller, you are transcendental to
the material world, which consists of the three modes of material
nature.
PURPORT
The word param means “the supreme cause,” and aparam means
“the effect.” The supreme cause is the Supreme Personality of Godhead,
and the effect is material nature. The living entities, both moving and
nonmoving, are controlled by the Vedic instructions in art and science,
and therefore they are all expansions of the external energy of the
Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is the center as the Supersoul. The
brahmandas, the universes, exist during the duration of a breath of the
Supreme Lord (yasyaika-nisvasita-kalam athévalambya jivanti loma-
vilaja jagad-anda-nathah). Thus they are also within the womb of the
Supreme Personality of Godhead, Maha-Visnu. Nothing, therefore, is
separate from the Supreme Lord. This is the philosophy of acintya-
bhedabheda-tattva.
