Imported quote 18516 Krsna says in the Bhagavad..., brahmanaḥ aham pratistha [Bg 14.27]. The jyoti is coming, brahma-jyoti is coming, from Krsna's body. Therefore you will find in the picture of Krsna there is some jyoti on His face. That is expanded. That is brahma-jyoti. That is explained in the Brahma-samhita. Yasya prabha prabhavato jagad-anḍa-koti-kotisv asesa-vasudhadi-vibhūti-bhinnam [Bs 5.40]. On account of that jyoti, brahma-jyoti... Just like on account of the sunshine all the planets are resting and rotating. That is scientific. Due to the heat of the sunshine, all the planets in the sky, they are rotating. It is due to sunshine. Similarly, this brahmanḍa, this universe-not only one universe, but millions of universes-they are also rotating in the brahma-jyoti. Yasya prabha prabhavato jagad-anḍa-koti. And what is that jagad-anḍa? Kotisv asesa-vasudhadi-vibhūti-bhinnam. In each brahmanḍa, in each universe, there are unlimited number of planets. Yasya prabha prabhavato jagad-anḍa-koti-kotisv asesa-vasudha. Vasudha means planets or globes. This earthy planet is called vasudha. Asesa-not one, but asesa, unlimited. Asesa-vasudhadi-vibhūti. Vibhūti means each planet is saturated with different types of atmosphere. Just like the moon planet. The scientist says that it is below zero two hundred degrees. It is very cold. That's a fact. Because it is very cold, therefore the shining from so much distance in the evening, we feel very comfortable. Not in the sunshine. God's arrangement is so nice. You require both. The sunshine also you require, and the moonshine also you require. If simply there is sunshine, then you die. And if there will be simply moonshine, then you will also die. Both.
(More...) Imported quote 19747 Now, amongst all these planets, the sun planet is the chief. How the sun planet is chief? Practically we can see. Everyone, we can see that there are so many glittering planets, illuminating planets, at night, millions and millions, but still, there is darkness. There is darkness at night. In spite of presentation of the moon and millions of other stars, still, you require light. But in the daytime, simply one planet, sunlight, oh, everything is dazzling light. Therefore it is called yac-caksur esa savita. Savita means this sun planet is the eye of God. Yac-caksur esa savita sakala-grahanam raja. Raja means king. Sakala-grahanam, all other planets, it is the king.
