Āśraya· The supreme shelterKṛṣṇa Is the Source of All
“The original, unmanifested form of material nature is the source of all material things, and the source of even that subtle material nature is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa. What, then, could one ascertain to be separate from Him?”
What the purport teaches
- The original, unmanifested form of material nature is the source of all material things.
- Even that subtle material nature has its source in Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
- The verse asks what could be considered separate from Him. All material things depend ultimately on Kṛṣṇa as their source.
Try this today
Look at one material object and remember that its ultimate source is Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Ask yourself
Do I think of anything as existing independently of Kṛṣṇa?
Carry the question through the day, then answer it in your own words before sleep.
