Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

Kṛṣṇa is the proprietor. Kṛṣṇa is the proprietor of everything. He is the owner. We are simply occupier. So kṣetra-jña, just like I know about this apartment—where is this room, where is that room, where I have my WC, where I have my kitchen—I know; similarly the proprietor also knows.


Just like, occupier, he wants to rent some apartment, but according to his capacity he'll get an apartment. If he can pay four thousand rent, he'll get good, nice apartment. But if he can pay fifty rupees, then he cannot get a nice apartment. This is an example. So occupier. But the owner is also owner of the fifty-rupees-worth apartment and the four-thousand-worth apartment. Therefore Kṛṣṇa is owner.

bhoktāraṁ yajña-tapasāṁ
sarva-loka-maheśvaram
suhṛdaṁ sarva-bhūtānāṁ
(BG 5.29)

Sarva-loka-maheśvaram: Kṛṣṇa is the proprietor. Kṛṣṇa is the proprietor of everything. He is the owner. We are simply occupier. So kṣetra-jña, just like I know about this apartment—where is this room, where is that room, where I have my WC, where I have my kitchen—I know; similarly the proprietor also knows.

It is not that the proprietor does not know. Kṣetra-jñaṁ cāpi māṁ viddhi. So similarly this body, as I know this is my hand, this is my leg, this is my head, similarly Kṛṣṇa also knows. Kṛṣṇa not only knows my hands, my legs, my head, but He knows everyone's heads, legs and everything. Therefore He's called Supersoul.
