<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- May 17, 1975, Perth|Morning Walk -- May 17, 1975, Perth]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Paramahaṁsa: I was reading in the Bhagavad-gītā last night. In Chapter Two there was a verse where it says, "Of the existent, there is no cessation, and the nonexistent, there is no continuation," something like that. But in the purport it says that one can understand the Supreme by studying himself. What does that mean? By analytical study of oneself one can understand the Supreme.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So you could not understand? You have got all propensities, different, the similar propensities are there in God. Because you are part and parcel of God, the chemical composition in drop of water from the sea is the same. In the sea it is in bigger quantity, and in the drop in smaller quantity. And therefore your composition you can study, and the same things are there. Therefore He is a person. He is person.</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: That is sāṅkhya-yoga?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. This is my interpretation. He is also creating; you are also creating. You can create a motorcar and He can create a huge, gigantic sun globe. The same process. As you are controlling the aeroplane by air condition or by controlling the air, similarly all these planets are there. It is by His plan it is moving with the air. Big, big planets, there is no question of gravitation. That is nonsense. It is by His arrangement it is moving in the air. Just like big, big cloud containing millions of tons of water floating in the air. How it is being done? Eh? Millions of tons of water are floating in the air. That we see daily. So similarly, all these planets are floating by His arrangement. Not only floating. Making center that polestar, all the planets are moving around it, even the sun. So it is by His arrangement.</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: So the sun is the center or the polestar?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Polestar.</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: Is the center of the universe.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Not in the center. Sun is in the center, the polestar in the extreme north. (break)</p>
