Bhagavad Gita As It IsReferences to text BG 7.4 |
BG 7.4: Earth, water, ďŹre, air, ether, mind, intelligence and false ego â all together these eight constitute My separated material energies.

|---|---|---|
| Therefore it is best for me to surrender unto His feet, which alone can deliver one from the miseries of repeated birth and death. Such surrender is all-auspicious and allows one to perceive all happiness. Even the sky cannot estimate the limits of its own expansion. So what can others do when the Lord Himself is unable to estimate His own limits? Purusha-sukta Confirmed |
| SB 2.6.36 |
| Thus by all this, the external feature of the Personality of Godhead is covered by gross forms such as those of planets, which were explained to you by me. Bhagavatam Is the Answer to All Questions |
| SB 2.10.33 |
| O King, know from me that all living entities are created by the Supreme Lord according to their past deeds. This includes BrahmÄ and his sons like Dakᚣa, the periodical heads like Vaivasvata Manu, the demigods like Indra, Candra and Varuáša, the great sages like Bhášgu, VyÄsa and Vasiᚣášha, the inhabitants of Pitášloka and Siddhaloka, the CÄraášas, Gandharvas, VidyÄdharas, Asuras, Yakᚣas, Kinnaras and angels, the serpentines, the monkey-shaped Kimpuruᚣas, the human beings, the inhabitants of MÄtášloka, the demons, PiĹÄcas, ghosts, spirits, lunatics and evil spirits, the good and evil stars, the goblins, the animals in the forest, the birds, the household animals, the reptiles, the mountains, the moving and standing living entities, the living entities born from embryos, from eggs, from perspiration and from seeds, and all others, whether they be in the water, land or sky, in happiness, in distress or in mixed happiness and distress. All of them, according to their past deeds, are created by the Supreme Lord. Bhagavatam Is the Answer to All Questions |
| SB 2.10.37-40 |
| My dear Kings, sometimes in the sky there are clouds, sometimes there is darkness, and sometimes there is illumination. The appearance of all these takes place consecutively. Similarly, in the Supreme Absolute, the modes of passion, darkness and goodness appear as consecutive energies. Sometimes they appear, and sometimes they disappear. Narada Instructs the Pracetas |
| SB 4.31.17 |
| All of us on the surface of the globe are living entities in different forms. Some of us are moving and some not moving. All of us come into existence, remain for some time and are annihilated when the body is again mingled with the earth. We are all simply different transformations of the earth. Different bodies and capacities are simply transformations of the earth that exist in name only, for everything grows out of the earth and when everything is annihilated it again mingles with the earth. In other words, we are but dust, and we shall but be dust. Everyone can consider this point. Conversation Between Maharaja Rahugana and Jada Bharata |
| SB 5.12.8 |
| One may say that varieties arise from the planet earth itself. However, although the universe may temporarily appear to be the truth, it ultimately has no real existence. The earth was originally created by a combination of atomic particles, but these particles are impermanent. Actually the atom is not the cause of the universe, although some philosophers think so. It is not a fact that the varieties found in this material world simply result from atomic juxtaposition or combination. Conversation Between Maharaja Rahugana and Jada Bharata |
| SB 5.12.9 |
| [The inhabitants of KrauĂącadvÄŤpa worship with this mantra.] O water of the rivers, you have obtained energy from the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Therefore you purify the three planetary systems, known as BhĹŤloka, Bhuvarloka and Svarloka. By your constitutional nature, you take away sins, and that is why we are touching you. Kindly continue to purify us. Studying the Structure of the Universe |
| SB 5.20.23 |
| The Lordâs eight separated material energies, the three modes of material nature and the sixteen transformations [the eleven senses and the five gross material elements like earth and water] â within all these, the one spiritual soul exists as the observer. Therefore all the great ÄcÄryas have concluded that the individual soul is conditioned by these material elements. What Prahlada Learned in the Womb |
| SB 7.7.22 |
| The manifest, the unmanifest, false ego and the beginning, maintenance and annihilation of this cosmic manifestation all come from You, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. But because You are the Absolute Truth, the supreme absolute spirit soul, the Supreme Brahman, such changes as birth, death and sustenance do not exist in You. The Mohini-murti Incarnation Bewilders Lord Siva |
| SB 8.12.5 |
| My Lord, You are the same person who in the beginning created this material world by His personal external energy. After the creation of this world of three guášas [sattva, rajas and tamas], You appear to have entered it, although in fact You have not. The Birth of Lord Krishna |
| SB 10.3.14 |
| Ĺukadeva GosvÄmÄŤ said: After thus instructing His father and mother, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, KášášŁáša, remained silent. In their presence, by His internal energy, He then transformed Himself into a small human child. [In other words, He transformed Himself into His original form: kášášŁášas tu bhagavÄn svayam.] The Birth of Lord Krishna |
| SB 10.3.46 |
| â âThe potency of Lord Viᚣášu is summarized in three categories â namely, the spiritual potency, the living entities and ignorance. The spiritual potency is full of knowledge; the living entities, although belonging to the spiritual potency, are subject to bewilderment; and the third energy, which is full of ignorance, is always visible in fruitive activities.â Lord Caitanya in Five Features |
| CC 1.7.119 |
| âThe theory of illusion can be applied only when the living entity identifies himself with the body. As far as the cosmic manifestation is concerned, it cannot be called false, although it is certainly temporary. The Liberation of Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya |
| CC 2.6.173 |
| âThe mahÄ-bhÄgavata, the advanced devotee, certainly sees everything mobile and immobile, but he does not exactly see their forms. Rather, everywhere he immediately sees manifest the form of the Supreme Lord.â Talks Between Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Ramananda Raya |
| CC 2.8.274 |
| âTo impregnate with the seeds of the living entities, the Lord Himself does not directly touch the material energy, but by His specific functional expansion He touches the material energy, and thus the living entities, who are His parts and parcels, are impregnated into material nature. Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu Instructs Sanatana Gosvami in the Science of the Absolute Truth |
