He Is Paramahamsa - Prabhupada 0220

730412 - Lecture SB 01.08.20 - New York

So a person who gives up the material part of this world and takes only the spiritual part, he is called paramahaṁsa. Paramahaṁsa.

Spiritual part means one who knows that whatever is working in this material . . . just like this body—your body, my body. Anyone who knows that this movement, the activities of this body, is due to the soul which is within this body . . . that is the real fact. This is only outward covering. Similarly, one who knows that Kṛṣṇa is the center of these all activities, he's paramahaṁsa.
