I hang about the BI somewhat in Alachua, so I'll give it a shot. It appears

the moon we see is in fact the moon -- but the moon we see is not the moon

experienced by the inhabitants who are said to be living there.

 

Our sense perception as human beings, or more broadly, as conditioned souls,

can only experience so much. But the Bhagavatam is meant to take us far beyond

the ordinary sense perception of an ordinary human being.
