WORD BY WORD



TRANSLATION

The soul within the body is self-luminous and is separate from the visible gross body and invisible subtle body. It remains as the fixed basis of changing bodily existence, just as the ethereal sky is the unchanging background of material transformation. Therefore the soul is endless and without material comparison.

PURPORT

This verse has not purport by His Holiness Hṛdayānanda dās Gosvāmi, initiated disciple of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Svāmī Prabhupāda.
