Krishna stays in Goloka yet pervades all hearts as Supersoul, managing infinite creation through His inconceivable potency alone.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 3.26.18 — December 27, 1974, Bombay 741227SB-BOMBAY [45:33 Minutes] SB-03.26.18_741227SB-BOMBAY Nitāi: Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. [Prabhupāda and devotees repeat] [leads chanting of verse, etc.] antaḥ puruṣa-rūpeṇa kāla-rūpeṇa yo bahiḥ samanvety eṣa sattvānāṁ bhagavān ātma-māyayā [SB 3.26.18] [break] [02:02] "By exhibiting His potencies, the Supreme Personality of Godhead adjusts all these different elements, keeping Himself within as the Supersoul and without as time." Prabhupāda: antaḥ puruṣa-rūpeṇa kāla-rūpeṇa yo bahiḥ samanvety eṣa sattvānāṁ bhagavān ātma-māyayā [SB 3.26.18] Bhagavān, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, He is exhibiting Himself in so many ways.
That is summarized in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa. Just like the heat and light. Just like in the material world we have got experience, the whole system of the material world is going on under the heat and light. The sunshine is diffusing unlimited quantity of heat and light, and on this heat and light the whole material existence is there.
That is scientific estimate. Because the sunlight is there—the heat and light is there—the whole planetary system is rotating, there is vegetation and varieties of fruits, flowers, varieties of manifestation. This is heat and light. Similarly, the example is given in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa, eka-deśa-sthitasyāgner jyotsnā vistāriṇī yathā parasya brahmaṇaḥ śakti sarvedam akhilaṁ jagat [Viṣṇu Purāṇa 1.22.53, Cc. Madhya 20.110] Just like agni, fire, eka-deśa-sthita, is there is one place, localized.
Agni does not move, but heat moves. That you have got experience. You have big fire in one place. The fire does not move, but you can feel the existence of fire by heat and light.
Similarly, Bhagavān does not move. He has got immense power. Parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate [Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad 6.8, Cc. Madhya 13.65, purport].
He moves by His energy. That is the difference between the Māyāvāda philosopher and Vaiṣṇava philosopher. Vaiṣṇava philosopher says the Bhagavān is staying in one place. Goloka eva nivasaty akhilātma-bhūtaḥ [Bs. 5.37].
He is staying. In the śāstra we understand that Kṛṣṇa... Vṛndāvanaṁ parityajya na padam ekaṁ gacchati [Yamala-tantra, quoted in Laghu-bhāgavatāmṛta 1.5.461]: "Kṛṣṇa does not leave, even by a step, Vṛndāvana." He always remains there. So in the Brahma-saṁhitā also, it is stated that goloka eva nivasaty akhilātma-bhūtaḥ.
