The jīva-bhūtā, the living entity, that is controlling over this material energy. Just like we are building skyscraper building. With the skyscraper building they are not coming out itself. The earth is there; the water is there; the brick is there—everything. But they are not coming out itself. The jīva-bhūtāṁ mahā-bāho yayedaṁ dhāryate—because they are touching, they are creating with their brain; therefore it is coming out into (indistinct). Otherwise not. This is knowledge.
Just like, occupier, he wants to rent some apartment, but according to his capacity he'll get an apartment. If he can pay four thousand rent, he'll get good, nice apartment. But if he can pay fifty rupees, then he cannot get a nice apartment. This is an example. So occupier. But the owner is also owner of the fifty-rupees-worth apartment and the four-thousand-worth apartment. Therefore Kṛṣṇa is owner.
 
So now there are two proprietors of the... One is..., just like suppose I am in this room. So proprietor, not occupier. Occupier, there are two kinds of taxes—I do not know there it is in Bombay—owner's tax and occupier's tax. Is it? Is there any two taxes? Municipal taxes?
 
In Calcutta they have got like that: owner tax and the occupier's tax. Factually that is the position. This room, the owner is different. Owner is Mr. Mahadevia, but we are occupier. Similarly, within this body, within this body, there is owner and the occupier. The owner is the..., Kṛṣṇa. This body doesn’t belong to me; I’m simply occupier. According to my desire, according by activities...
 
Just like, occupier, he wants to rent some apartment, but according to his capacity he’ll get an apartment. If he can pay four thousand rent, he’ll get good, nice apartment. But if he can pay fifty rupees, then he cannot get a nice apartment. This is an example. So occupier. But the owner is also owner of the fifty-rupees-worth apartment and the four-thousand-worth apartment.
 
Therefore Kṛṣṇa is owner.

Sarva-loka-maheśvaram: Kṛṣṇa is the proprietor. Kṛṣṇa is the proprietor of everything. He is the owner. We are simply occupier. So kṣetra-jña, just like I know about this apartment—where is this room, where is that room, where I have my WC, where I have my kitchen—I know; similarly the proprietor also knows.
 
It is not that the proprietor does not know. Kṣetra-jñaṁ cāpi māṁ viddhi. So similarly this body, as I know this is my hand, this is my leg, this is my head, similarly Kṛṣṇa also knows. Kṛṣṇa not only knows my hands, my legs, my head, but He knows everyone's heads, legs and everything. Therefore He's called Supersoul.

The landlord knows, as another apartment there may be in this building, but I do not know. But the proprietor of the building, he knows everything. Similarly, I do not know how things are happening within my body—how I am eating, and they’re being transformed into different secretion, energies, and distributed in different parts of the body. I do not know; I am simply eating. But Kṛṣṇa knows. Kṛṣṇa knows.
 
Therefore Kṛṣṇa says, ahaṁ vaiśvānaro bhūtvā, pacāmy annaṁ catur-vidham ([[Vanisource:BG 15.14|BG 15.14]]). Kṛṣṇa is also helping you in digesting your food. That is also stated. Suppose your digestive power is not working. That means there is something defect. But it can be put into order by Kṛṣṇa. If a man is dying, he can be saved by Kṛṣṇa—not the physician, not the medicine. Because Kṛṣṇa knows everything.

So even for maintaining your body, you have to take help of Kṛṣṇa. You cannot independently maintain your body; that is not possible. Therefore Kṛṣṇa says,

You can take care of your body, but Kṛṣṇa is taking care of everyone's body. Tvad-upekṣitānā. In the Bhāgavata there is a verse, that "My dear Lord," Prahlāda Mahārāja said, “My dear Lord, it is not that because one has got his parents—a child has got his parents—he’ll be protected.” Bālasya neha śaraṇaṁ pitarau nṛsiṁha ([[Vanisource:SB 7.9.19|SB 7.9.19]]). "My dear Lord Nṛsiṁha, it is not that the shelter of a child is the parent. No. Similarly shelter of a patient is not the physician or the medicine. The shelter of a drowning man is not the boat or the big sea."


So we have manufactured so many, I mean to say, shelter, to take shelter of. Just like parent—a child is taking shelter of the parents. A diseased person is taking shelter of the physician. A drowning man is taking shelter of a boat. So Prahlāda Mahārāja says, "All these shelters are actually not shelter. The shelter is Your Lordship. If You neglect somebody, these shelters will not act. This will not give protection."
:''bhoktāraṁ yajña-tapasāṁ''
:''sarva-loka-maheśvaram''
:''suhṛdaṁ sarva-bhūtānāṁ''
:([[vanisource:BG 5.29 (1972)|BG 5.29]])


Actually, tāvad vibho tanu-bhṛtāṁ tvad-upekṣitānām: “If You do not take care of a drowning man, the boat cannot save. If You do not take care of the child, in spite of presence of the parents, the child will not be properly raised. And if You do not take care of a patient, in spite of good physician and doctor, he’ll die.” This is the point.
''Sarva-loka-maheśvaram'': Kṛṣṇa is the proprietor. Kṛṣṇa is the proprietor of everything. He is the owner. We are simply occupier. So ''kṣetra-jña'', just like I know about this apartment—where is this room, where is that room, where I have my WC, where I have my kitchen—I know; similarly the proprietor also knows.


So Kṛṣṇa is there within the body. Not only I am seeing. I am occupier, and Kṛṣṇa is the owner.
It is not that the proprietor does not know. ''Kṣetra-jñaṁ cāpi māṁ viddhi''. So similarly this body, as I know this is my hand, this is my leg, this is my head, similarly Kṛṣṇa also knows. Kṛṣṇa not only knows my hands, my legs, my head, but He knows everyone's heads, legs and everything. Therefore He's called Supersoul.
