BG 9.4
" By Me, in My unmanifested form, this entire universe is pervaded. All beings are in Me, but I am not in them."
Purport:
The Supreme Personality of Godhead is not perceivable through the gross material senses. It is said,
ataḥ śrī-kṛṣṇa-nāmādi
na bhaved grāhyam indriyaiḥ
sevonmukhe hi jihvādau
svayam eva sphuraty adaḥ
(CC Madhya 17.136)
(Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu 1.2.234)
Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa's name, fame, pastimes, etc., cannot be understood by
material senses. Only to one who is engaged in pure devotional service
under proper guidance is He revealed. In the Brahma-saṁhitā (5.38) it is
stated, premāñjana-cchurita-bhakti-vilocanena
santaḥ sadaiva hṛdayeṣu vilokayanti: one can see the Supreme
Personality of Godhead, Govinda, always within himself and outside
himself if one has developed the transcendental loving attitude towards
Him. Thus for people in general He is not visible. Here it is said that
although He is all-pervading, everywhere present, He is not conceivable
by the material senses. This is indicated here by the word
avyakta-mūrtinā. But actually, although we cannot see Him, everything is
resting in Him. As we have discussed in the Seventh Chapter, the entire
material cosmic manifestation is only a combination of His two
different energies—the superior, spiritual energy and the inferior,
material energy. Just as the sunshine is spread all over the universe,
the energy of the Lord is spread all over the creation, and everything
is resting in that energy.
