So just see that minute portion of God is so powerful. Hah? Just like potassium cyanide. Minute quantity, if you take one grain, immediately you'll die. Immediately you'll die. Similarly, if some ordinary material thing is so powerful, just imagine the spirit soul, how much powerful he is. And they have no machine to find out. How they will find out? One ten-thousandth part of the hair, we cannot see—the tip of the hair is so small—and divided into ten-thousandth part. That one part is the dimension of the soul.

The soul lives in the heart. This is proof from the śāstra. Not only the soul, but the Supersoul also is there. Supersoul is God, Kṛṣṇa, and the individual soul, they're living together. Īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ hṛd-deśe ([[Vanisource:BG 18.61 (1972)|BG 18.61]]). Īśvara, the Supreme Lord, He's also there, very minute form, aṇor aṇīyān mahato mahīyān (Kaṭha Upaniṣad 1.2.20). The dimension of the soul is also mentioned in the śāstra: one ten-thousandth part of the tip of a hair.

Very minute. So just see that minute portion of God is so powerful. Hah? Just like potassium cyanide. Minute quantity, if you take one grain, immediately you'll die. Immediately you'll die. Similarly, if some ordinary material thing is so powerful, just imagine the spirit soul, how much powerful he is. And they have no machine to find out. How they will find out? One ten-thousandth part of the hair, we cannot see—the tip of the hair is so small—and divided into ten-thousandth part. That one part is the dimension of the soul. Everything is there in the śāstra, Upaniṣads. Keśāgra-śata-bhāgasya śatadhā kalpitasya ca jīvaḥ bhāgo sa vijñeyaḥ ([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 19.140|CC Madhya 19.140]]). And . . . it is very powerful. We can take the example that very minute quantity of potash cyanide. There is no taste. In chemical analysis there is a taste. So up to date, nobody has tasted potash cyanide, because as soon as the chemist will taste, immediately, he'll not be able to say what is this. (laughter)

So you have to understand from the śāstra, śāstra-cakṣuṣa. The Vedas say that you have to see through the śāstra, through the authoritative śāstra. With these blunt eyes what can you see? You're so much anxious. Everyone says, "Can you show me God?" What you can see? What is the power of your eyes? You cannot see your eyelid. The eyelid is attached to the eye. Can you see? So how you can see God? You're so imperfect. Just like if there is some particle within the eyelid, we become embarrassed. But why . . . the eye is attached. Why not see and take it away? This is practical. So what is the power of your eyes? You cannot see the nearest and you cannot see distant place. You cannot see in darkness. So many conditions. So you're always under the conditions, and you declare "Independent." How foolishness it is. Your senses are all imperfect. No senses are perfect. You can use the senses under certain condition only. I'm claiming, "This is my hand," and as soon as there is some nervous disability it is paralyzed, finished.
