“This is the study of Krishna consciousness”

Prabhupada, Vrndavana, August 15, 1974:[…] The flavor of rose flower is there, and the flavor of some other flower is also there, but you cannot take out by your so-called scientific chemical process. You take some lump of earth and extract from it the flavor of rose. It is there. That is a fact. Because you sow the seed of a rose flower, it will extract the rose flavor from the earth. That’s a fact. Who can deny it?

Otherwise, wherefrom the flavor is coming? Krishna also, He, it is said, jivanam sarva-bhutesu. He’s the life, seed. Bijo ’ham… Next, next verse He’ll say, bijam mam sarva-bhutanam. Bija, the seed. The seed is so nicely made by Krishna’s brain that as soon as you put on the seed within the earth and put some water, it will come out, fructify, and gradually grow and extract the flavor, the color, everything.

This is a fact. No, everybody knows. Not only that, a small seed of banyan tree… Bijam mam sarva-bhutanam. There is also Krishna. Otherwise how this wonderful thing can happen? A small seed just like a mustard seed, and it… Not only one tree, but many millions of fruits, and in each fruit, many millions of trees. This is Krishna’s brain. You cannot do that. The so-called manufacturers, they can manufacture one watch, very complicated, but not that from that watch many watches will come. No, that is not possible.

But Krishna is so powerful, omnipotent, that He has manufactured… Because He is there. Bijam mam sarva-bhutanam. Whenever He is there, He can play wonderful things. This is the study of Krishna consciousness. Where is the difficulty? Bija… Punyo gandhah prthivyam ca tejas ca, tejas casmi vibhavasau. Full Lecture
