I am the functions of the five active senses, the legs, the floor, the anus, the hands and the sexual organs, as well as those of the five senses acquiring knowledge, touch, sight, taste, hearing, and 'smell. I am also the power by which each of the senses experiences its particular sensory object.

I am the form, the taste, the aroma, the touch and the sound. The false ego, the elements of material nature; the earth, the water, the fire, the air and the ether, the living entity, the attributes and modes of influence of the material nature; virtue, passion, ignorance, and the transcendental Lord. All these elements, as well as the knowledge of their individual characteristics and the resulting constant conviction, represent Me.

As Supreme Lord, I am the source of the living entity, the modes of influence of material nature; virtue, passion and ignorance, and elements of material nature. Thus, I am ALL and nothing can exist without Me.

Even if, for a certain time, I could count all the atoms of the universe, I could not count all my opulences that I manifest in innumerable universes (galaxies).

Whatever power, beauty, fame, opulence, humility, renunciation, mental pleasure, fortune, power, tolerance, or spiritual knowledge, it is simply an expansion of opulence.

I have briefly described to you all my spiritual opulences as well as the extraordinary material characteristics of My creation, perceived by the mind and defined in different ways according to the circumstances.

The Counsel of Krishna, God, the Supreme Person.

Therefore, control your language, master your mind, conquer your vital air, master your senses and, thanks to a purified intelligence, master your rational faculties. In this way, you will never fall back on the path of material existence. A transcendentalist who does not completely control his words and mind with superior intelligence will find that his spiritual vows, austerities and charity escape just as water gushes out of an uncooked pot of clay.

Being subject to Me, you will have to control your speech, your mind, your vital air, and then by the loving devotional intelligence, you will completely fulfill the mission of your existence. For erudite and self-realized philosophers, I am the only object of worship, the desired end of life, the means of attaining that end, and the definitive conclusion of all knowledge. Indeed, because I am the cause of their happiness and their liberation from misfortune, such learned souls have neither an effective objective nor an expensive object in life, except Me.
