Bhagavad Gita As It Is

References to text BG 15.6
BG 15.6: That supreme abode of Mine is not illumined by the sun or moon, nor by ï¬re or electricity. Those who reach it never return to this material world.

Text â„–
Let me offer my respectful obeisances unto Him who is the associate of the members of the Yadu dynasty and who is always a problem for the nondevotees. He is the supreme enjoyer of both the material and spiritual worlds, yet He enjoys His own abode in the spiritual sky. There is no one equal to Him because His transcendental opulence is immeasurable.
The Process of Creation
SB 2.4.14
The great sage Maitreya said: After being worshiped and honored by the boy [Dhruva MahÄrÄja], and after offering him His abode, Lord Viṣṇu, on the back of Garuá¸a, returned to His abode as Dhruva MahÄrÄja looked on.
Dhruva Maharaja Returns Home
SB 4.9.26
Dear King Dhruva, neither your forefathers nor anyone else before you ever achieved such a transcendental planet. The planet known as Viṣṇuloka, where Lord Viṣṇu personally resides, is the highest of all. It is worshipable by the inhabitants of all other planets within the universe. Please come with us and live there eternally.
Dhruva Maharaja Goes Back to Godhead
SB 4.12.26
[NÄrada Muni had described that there is a bila, or hole, from which, having entered, one does not return. The HaryaÅ›vas understood the meaning of this allegory.] Hardly once has a person who has entered the lower planetary system called PÄtÄla been seen to return. Similarly, if one enters the Vaikuṇṭha-dhÄma [pratyag-dhÄma], he does not return to this material world. If there is such a place, from which, having gone, one does not return to the miserable material condition of life, what is the use of jumping like monkeys in the temporary material world and not seeing or understanding that place? What will be the profit?
Narada Muni Cursed by Prajapati Daksha
SB 6.5.13
Overwhelmed by transcendental joy, the King humbly bowed his head and then proceeded to question the nine sages. These nine great souls glowed with their own effulgence and thus appeared equal to the four KumÄras, the sons of Lord BrahmÄ.
Maharaja Nimi Meets the Nine Yogendras
SB 11.2.27
Fear arises when a living entity misidentifies himself as the material body because of absorption in the external, illusory energy of the Lord. When the living entity thus turns away from the Supreme Lord, he also forgets his own constitutional position as a servant of the Lord. This bewildering, fearful condition is effected by the potency for illusion, called mÄyÄ. Therefore, an intelligent person should engage unflinchingly in the unalloyed devotional service of the Lord, under the guidance of a bona fide spiritual master, whom he should accept as his worshipable deity and as his very life and soul.
Maharaja Nimi Meets the Nine Yogendras
SB 11.2.37
“Prior to the cosmic creation, only I exist, and no phenomena exist, either gross, subtle or primordial. After creation, only I exist in everything, and after annihilation, only I remain eternally.
The Spiritual Masters
CC 1.1.53
“What appears to be truth without Me is certainly My illusory energy, for nothing can exist without Me. It is like a reflection of a real light in the shadows, for in the light there are neither shadows nor reflections.
The Spiritual Masters
CC 1.1.54
The Supreme Lord walks and does not walk. He is far away, but He is very near as well. He is within everything, and yet He is outside of everything.
