is not imagination

Imported quote 16822 Now, Krsna is there. We have got Krsna's picture, Krsna's photo, Krsna's temple, so many Krsna's. They are not fictitious. They are not imagination, as the Mayavadi philosopher thinks, that "You can imagine in your mind." No. God cannot be imagined. That is another foolishness. How you can imagine God? Then God become subject matter of your imagination. He is no substance. That is not God. What is imagined, that is not God. God is present before you: Krsna. He comes here on this planet. Tadatmanam srjamy aham, sambhavami yuge yuge . So those who have seen God, you take information from them.

Don't think it is imagination, we have imagined some form. Just like the Mayavadis say, "It is imagination." No. It is fact. Because this Krsna, this form of Krsna, the our forefathers or acaryas they have seen when Krsna was present on this planet. And there are many, many old temples-the same feature of Krsna, two hands, playing on the flute, and anywhere you will see Krsna He has got this flute, because that is His most beloved, favorite instrument. That is stated in the sastra, not imagination. Venum kvanantam aravinda-dalayataksam barhavatamsam asita... [Bs 5.30].
