Each and every planet within the universe travels at a very high speed. From a statement in ÅšrÄ«mad-BhÄgavatam it is understood that even the sun travels sixteen thousand miles in a second, and from Brahma-saá¹hitÄ we understand from the Å›loka beginning yac-caká¹£ur eá¹£a savitÄ sakala-grahÄṇÄm that the sun is considered to be the eye of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Govinda, and it also has a specific orbit within which it circles. Similarly, all other planets have their specific orbits. But together all of them encircle the polestar, or Dhruvaloka, where Dhruva MahÄrÄja is situated at the summit of the three worlds. We can only imagine how highly exalted the actual position of a devotee is, and certainly we cannot even conceive how exalted is the position of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
