So spiritual world is different from the material world. Spiritually it is different. So spiritually we cannot understand now, because we are absorbed in matter. But we understand from reliable sources, from authoritative sources, that Kṛṣṇa is everywhere, although He is far far away in His abode, beyond this material world. So I just explained the material world, we cannot reach the limit, and what to speak of going to the spiritual world that is far beyond this sky. But although it is impossible materially, spiritually it is possible. Spiritually it is possible.

. . . repeating his name, "Mr. John, Mr. John, Mr. John," I cannot associate with him. He may be some thousand miles away from me. So if I require to see him or to touch him or to feed him—these are all exchanges of love. If you love somebody, you want to see him, you want to touch him, you want to serve him, you want to talk with him. So many exchanges there are. So if your lover is away from you, say thousand miles away, or a few miles away, if you simply chant the name of your friend, you cannot relish the actual meeting association. That is not possible; that is materially not possible.

But spiritually, although God is . . . we do not know where He is living. We do not know even this material world, where the other planets are there. We have seen at night so many planets and stars in the sky, but we have no information, because it is not possible to reach. The modern scientist says that if you want to reach the topmost planet, then you have to travel in the space for 40,000 of years—and then you can reach.

Now who is going to live for 40,000 years, and with . . .? It is impossible. So in the material world you see so many planets and stars—you have got machine also to fly in the space—but it is not possible. At least, the time will not allow you to go there. This space . . . not only this space, but there is time also, time and space. So materially it is not possible. Even within this material world you cannot minimize the longest distance of time and space. But spiritually it is possible. That is the difference between matter and spirit. Just try to understand this.

The matter and spirit, we are all combined together, every one of us, because I am the spirit soul; I am not this body, matter. So both the matter and spirit are here, you can see. Just like I am speaking before you. As soon as I, the spirit, leave this body, this body can no more speak, can no more can shake the hands and move the hands and so on. Everything stopped. So just try to understand, this is matter and spirit. Without going into the detailed information, any layman, any child, any man can understand what is the distinction between matter and spirit.

So spiritual world is different from the material world. Spiritually it is different. So spiritually we cannot understand now, because we are absorbed in matter. But we understand from reliable sources, from authoritative sources, that Kṛṣṇa is everywhere, although He is far far away in His abode, beyond this material world. So I just explained the material world, we cannot reach the limit, and what to speak of going to the spiritual world that is far beyond this sky. But although it is impossible materially, spiritually it is possible. Spiritually it is possible.
