The Spiritual Atom and Divine Consciousness

Simultaneous presence of sun and sunlight

0:02Prabhupāda: Wherever there is sun, there is sunlight, immediately. Where there is light, immediately there is illumination.

Immediate expansion of material poison

0:23Just like a drop of poison. You just take a drop of poison; as soon as it touches the tongue, immediately it expands all over the whole body and it make the whole blood, water, dead.

0:38How it expands, a small grain of potassium cyanide? Simply a grain, immediately, second.

Potency of the spiritual atom

0:52If a material thing can have so much effect immediately, the spiritual atom cannot do that? That is called science.

All-pervading nature of Krishna

1:18Similarly, the biggest spiritual identity, Kṛṣṇa, He can become all-pervading. We are particle spiritual, spark.

Limited power of the individual soul

1:34We have got limited power. [indistinct] Yena sarvam idaṁ tatam Bg. 2.17*,* "I become immediately expanded throughout My body." And He is unlimitedly big.

Universal distribution of divine consciousness

1:48So how much His consciousness is distributed all over the world? Sarva-jña. Therefore Kṛṣṇa is not abhijña. Svarāṭ. Janmādy asya yato 'nvayād itarataś cārtheśv abhijñaḥ svarāṭ SB 1.1.1. This example is nice.

2:19A grain of potassium cyanide is sufficient.

Lethal properties of potassium cyanide

2:24There is no taste. The chemical characteristic of potassium cyanide, they have not mentioned the taste, because as soon as there is taste—finished. They cannot... [laughter] He cannot say whether it is pungent or sweet. [laughter] Finished.

2:53So there is no taste. [end]
