God's inconceivable power creates infinite universes; human knowledge comes only from scripture, not speculation.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Ādi-līlā 1.10 — April 3, 1975, Māyāpur 750403CC-MAYAPUR [23:40 Minutes] CcAdi-01.010_750403CC-MAYAPUR Nitāi: Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. [devotees repeat] [leads chanting of verse, etc.] yasyāṁśāṁśaḥ śrīla-garbhoda-śāyī yan-nābhy-abjaṁ loka-saṅghāta-nālam loka-sraṣṭuḥ sūtikā-dhāma dhātuḥ taṁ śrī-nityānanda-rāmaṁ prapadye [Cc. Ādi 1.10] [break] [00:51] "I offer my full obeisances unto the feet of Śrī Nityānanda Rāma, a partial part of whom is Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu.
From the navel of Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu sprouts the lotus that is the birthplace of Brahmā, the engineer of the universe. The stem of that lotus is the resting place of the multitude of planets." Prabhupāda: yasyāṁśāṁśaḥ śrīla-garbhoda-śāyī yan-nābhy-abjaṁ loka-saṅghāta-nālam loka-sraṣṭuḥ sūtikā-dhāma dhātuḥ taṁ śrī-nityānanda-rāmaṁ prapadye [Cc. Ādi 1.10] We have already discussed Kāraṇodakaśāyī, who is the plenary portion of Saṅkarṣaṇa. Now, from Kāraṇodakaśāyī is Garbhodakaśāyī. Garbhodakaśāyī means this within the womb or bottom[?] of this universe, there is a ocean, big ocean, and in that ocean the plenary portion of Kāraṇodakaśāyī Viṣṇu enters.
This is explained in the Bhagavad-gītā, viṣṭabhya aham idaṁ kṛtsnam ekāṁśena sthito jagat [Bg. 10.42]. By one portion, the Garbho..., er, Kāraṇodakaśāyī Viṣṇu enters each universe, and within that universe He creates a ocean by His perspiration. Now, there are so many questions: "How these oceans are created?" The scientist says that it is a combination of hydrogen and oxygen gas. So wherefrom this gas came? The answer is here.
Of course, from the gas, water comes out. If you cover one boiling pot, the gas, the vapor coming, and you will find spots of water. So from the gas, the water comes, and from the water, gas comes. This is nature's way.
But the original water came from the perspiration of this Garbhodakaśāyī Viṣṇu. Just like you have got perspiration. You can produce, say, one gram or, say, one ounce of water through your bodily heat. That we have got practical experience.
So if you can produce one ounce of water from your body, why God cannot produce volumes and millions of tons of water from His body? Where is the difficulty to understand? You are a tiny soul, and you have got a small body. You can produce one ounce of water by your perspiration.
Why God, who has got the gigantic body, He cannot produce water, the Garbhodakaśāyī, the garbhodaka water? There is no reason to disbelieve. This is called acintya-śakti, inconceivable power. Unless we accept inconceivable power of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, there is no meaning of God. If you think "a person" means like me or you...
