Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

Body is the material—earth, water, air, fire and ether, mind, intelligence, ego. They are also emanating from Kṛṣṇa. Prakṛti..., bhinnā me prakṛtir aṣṭadhā. The difference is they are not in touch with Kṛṣṇa. But it is Kṛṣṇa's energy.


So "They are caused by Me," Kṛṣṇa says. The body . . . Body is the material—earth, water, air, fire and ether, mind, intelligence, ego. They are also emanating from Kṛṣṇa. Prakṛti . . . bhinnā me prakṛtir aṣṭadhā. The difference is they are not in touch with Kṛṣṇa. But it is Kṛṣṇa's energy. Just like I am speaking and it is being recorded. When it will be replayed, you will find that I am speaking, but that speaking is separate. The speaking has come from me, but in the tape record it appears that it is separated. Or it is separated. In one sense it is not separated, because originally comes from me, and another sense, it is mechanical going on. So similarly, this material world is also Kṛṣṇa. Idaṁ hi viśvaṁ bhagavān ivetaraḥ (SB 1.5.20). This material world is emanating from Kṛṣṇa. Ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavaḥ (BG 10.8): "I am the origin of everything." "Everything" means there are two things: one jaḍa and one cetanā, matter and spirit. There are two things. Matter is coming from Kṛṣṇa, and the spirit is also coming from Kṛṣṇa. Therefore He is the original cause, sarva-kāraṇa-kāraṇam.
