The Truth of Lord Krsna

"Lord Krsna is the only Absolute Autocrat. He is beyond anyone's jurisdiction, for He alone is the Supreme Controller and Lord. He is endowed with inconceivable potencies, and is a fully independent, self-willed and conscious being. All energies or potencies are a part of His inherent nature; therefore they are not independent of Him. The omnipotent Lord is the fountainhead of all energies. Lord Krsna is the master of unlimited opulences and potencies, yet He is still one non-dual Brahman. Through the eightfold yoga system, the yogi can perceive this same, nondual Supreme Being, who is omnipresent, localized within the heart as paramatma, the Supersoul. This aspect of Lord Krsna is also a partial manifestation. Therefore, neither Brahman nor paramatma is a complete feature of Lord Krsna. Lord Krsna alone is fully replete with absolute potency, will, control and consciousness.

You may not be content to watch the stream of mindstuff flow freely, but instead may try to control it, redirect it, or stop it completely. But the very fact that you can try to redirect or control your mind, combined with the fact that it is so difficult to succeed in the endeavor, further shows that you, the self, are not the mind or stream of mindstuff.

In spite of His endless excellences and multifarious potencies, He remains unaffected and indivisible.

The three kinds of opulences

"The Lord's energies are manifestations of His vaibhava (opulences); the Supreme Lord, therefore, can be perceived only through these energies or vaibhava. O Lord Gauranga! You are the repository of three types of vaibhava. They are as revealed in the scriptures: the spiritual potency (cit-vaibhava), the material potency (maya or acit-vaibhava), and the marginal potency (jivaviabhava).

Cit-vaibhava or spiritual potency

"Lord Krsna's cit-vaibhava (spiritual opulences) are a transformation of His internal transcendental potencies. This un-
