Prabhupāda: Hare Kṛṣṇa. Page 65, mantra 13. anyad evāhuḥ sambhavād anyad āhur asambhavāt iti śuśruma dhīrāṇāṁ ye nas tad vicacakṣire [Īśo mantra 13] Chant again, independently. Again. Then mantra 14, [page] 72. sambhūtiṁ ca vināśaṁ ca yas tad vedobhayaṁ saha vināśena mṛtyuṁ tīrtvā sambhūtyāmṛtam aśnute [Īśo mantra 14] Fifteen. hiraṇmayena pātreṇa satyasyāpihitaṁ mukham tat tvaṁ pūṣann apāvṛṇu satya-dharmāya dṛṣṭaye [Īśo mantra 15] Chant. [04:39] "O my Lord, sustainer of all that lives, Your real face is covered by Your dazzling effulgence.
Kindly remove that covering and exhibit Yourself to Your pure devotee." Here is Vedic evidence. This Īśopaniṣad is Veda, part of the Yajur Veda. So here it is said, hiraṇmayena pātreṇa satyasya apihitam mukham. Just like the sun.
There is, in the sun planet, there is a predominating deity whose name is Vivasvān. We get it, this information, we get from Bhagavad-gītā. Vivasvān manave prāha. So in every planet there is a predominating deity.
Just like in your this planet, if not deity, somebody like president there is. Formerly, there was one..., only one king on this planet, up to Mahārāja Parīkṣit. One king was... There was only one flag ruling over this whole planet.
Similarly, in every planet there is a predominating deity. So here it is said that the supreme predominating Deity is Kṛṣṇa, in the spiritual..., in the topmost planet in the spiritual sky. This is material sky. In the material sky this is one of the universes. There are millions and trillions of universes.
And within this universe there are millions and trillions of planets. Yasya prabhā prabhavato jagad-aṇḍa-koṭi [Bs. 5.40]. Jagad-aṇḍa. Jagad-aṇḍa means universe.
