So you must have a clear idea of God, you theologician. You take all these ideas from Vedic description. Don't be misled by fools and rascals. Here is the God—full energy. There is no loss of energy. That is God.

Nobody can calculate from where the moon is situated, created, and it is spreading light, the sun is . . . light is there. It is material. You find out. Therefore it is called parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate (Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad 6.8, CC Madhya 13.65, purport). His energy is unlimited. He can create millions of sun. He has already done it. But still, He's the same. Nothing is lost in His energy. That is God. That is acintya-śakti. Here you have got some money. You spend it. Next day it is all zero. So God never becomes zero. That is God. These rascals, they say ultimate truth is zero, śūnyavāda. They do not know. God is never zero. He's always positive.

So you must have a clear idea of God, you theologician. You take all these ideas from Vedic description. Don't be misled by fools and rascals. Here is the God—full energy. There is no loss of energy. That is God. Our energy is lost, just like I have lost my youthful energy. So God is not like that. That is the difference between God and me. I cannot walk so swiftly or eat more, or so many other things as a young man can do, because I have lost my youthful energy.

But God is always youthful. Advaitam acyutam anādim ananta-rūpam ādyaṁ purāṇa-puruṣaṁ nava-yauvanaṁ ca (Bs. 5.33). This is definition of God, that He's the oldest person. Because He's the original person, He must be the oldest. But nava-yauvanaṁ ca, but He's always youthful. That is God. Advaitam acyutam anādim ananta-rūpam. He has got millions and millions . . . just like īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ hṛd-deśe . . . (BG 18.61). He's staying within the atom, within your heart and everywhere. But still, He's one. That is God. Advaitam acyutam. Advaita means without any duality. Not that because He's living within your heart and within my heart, these two personalities are different. No. They are one. Therefore Bhagavad-gītā, yo māṁ paśyati sarvatra (BG 6.30). One who can see that although God is everywhere, even within the atom, but still, He's one—that is vision of God.
