Krishna's eternal pastimes span all universes simultaneously; His temples manifest Goloka in the material world.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Prabhupāda: Oṁ namo bhāgavate vāsudevāya. Oṁ namo bhāgavate vāsudevāya. Oṁ namo bhāgavate vāsudevāya. English, I think English numbers… [Transl. What about you?] Devotee: [Transl. As you like.] Prabhupāda: Hmm. This is from Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Madhya-līlā, Chapter Twenty. kona brahmāṇḍe kona līlāra haya avasthāna tāte līlā 'nitya' kahe āgama-purāṇa [Cc Madhya 20.395] Āgama-purāṇa means Vedic literature. Āgama, "which is coming from higher plane," not manufactured here. Āgama-purāṇa. And Purāṇa means the old history of the world, Purāṇa.
Purāṇa, some of the modern scholars, they take everything as mythology, imagination. That is not fact. They're real history. Purāṇa.
Purāṇa means very old. Nityaḥ śāśvato yaṁ purāṇo [Bg 2.20]. In Hindi it is called Purāṇa. Purāṇa means "old." The Purāṇas means the old history, not only of this world, but of the whole universe.
Purāṇa is also Vedic evidence. Purāṇa is not ordinary thing. Therefore here it is said, āgama-purāṇa, Vedic literatures. Śrīla Madhvācārya has accepted the Vedic literatures—four Vedas, Vedānta-sūtra, Upaniṣads, Purāṇas, Rāmāyaṇa, Mahābhārata. They're all Vedic literature.
So here it is said, kono brahmāṇḍe. [aside:] Come here. This room is very nice. Devotee: Is it? Prabhupāda: Yes. Although it is not very big, but very comfortable.
Dakṣina, dakṣina-rāja. So, kona brahmāṇḍe kona līlāra haya avasthāna tāte līlā 'nitya' kahe āgama-purāṇa [Cc Madhya 20.395] Nitya-līlā. Nitya-līlā means everlasting pastimes. Our līlā, material, that is not nitya-līlā.
Whatever I'm acting by this body, it is not nitya; it is temporary. I am the son of such and such family, I am such and such important person, my name is such and such, my position is such and such—these are not nitya. This is temporary. As soon as the body is finished, everything is finished.
