As I have told you yesterday, Kṛṣṇa said to Arjuna, bhakto 'si, priyo 'si me (BG 4.3). "Because you are My pure devotee, because you are My friend, dear friend, therefore I am speaking to you Bhagavad-gītā, which is very mysterious," rahasyaṁ hy etad uttamam. And that mystery is very nice. So in order to understand Bhagavad-gītā we have to learn it from the devotee. That is also not very difficult. It is not necessary that you have to find out a devotee. The devotee is already there: Arjuna. And if you simply follow the footsteps of Arjuna, if you simply try to understand Bhagavad-gītā as Arjuna understood, then your study of Bhagavad-gītā is complete. That is not difficult.
So as Arjuna said, that paraṁ brahma paraṁ dhāma pavitraṁ paramaṁ bhavān (BG 10.12): "You are the Supreme Personality." Śāśvataṁ puruṣa. He is accepted puruṣa. Puruṣa, the Supreme Lord, puruṣa; the bhokta, the enjoyer. And He's paraṁbrahman and pavitra, uncontaminated. Pavitra means uncontaminated by the material nature. Paramaṁ bhavān: and He is the rest of everything. Kṛṣṇa also says:
- mayā tatam idaṁ sarvaṁ
- jagat avyakta-mūrtinā
- mat-sthāni sarva-bhūtāni
- nāhaṁ teṣu avasthitaḥ
- (BG 9.4)
So everything is there. Kṛṣṇa says that, "I am spread all over the world, all over the universe," avyakta-mūrtinā, "in My impersonal form. But everything is resting upon Me, but I am not there." These contradictory terms, how it is satisfied, how it is mitigated, we have to learn from a person who knows Kṛṣṇa, not from others.
