Vasudeva: The Cause of All Causes

[melvin]

Whatever that occurs in the material

and spiritual worlds, good or bad,

it is VASUDEVA who is the cause of

it all. The evidence comes from the

Book, Srimad Bhagavatam. Here it is:

---

 

The five elementary ingredients of

creation, the interaction set there

of by eternal time, and the intui-

tion or nature of the individual hu-

man beings are all differentiated

parts and parcels of the Personali-

ty of Godhead, Vasudeva, and in

truth there is no other value in it.

--

The Vedic literatures are made by

and are meant for the Supreme Lord,

the demigods are also meant for ser-

ving the Lord as parts of His body,

the different planets are also meant

for the sake of the Lord, and diffe-

rent sacrifices are performed just

to please Him.

---

The Supreme Lord is pure spiritual

form, transcendental to all material

qualities, yet for the sake of the

creation of the material world and

its maintenance and annihilation, He

accepts through His external energy

the material modes of nature called

goodness, passion, and ignorance.

----

These three modes of material nature,

being further manifested as matter,

knowledge and activities, put the

ETERNALLY TRANSCENDENTAL LIVING EN-

TITY under the conditions of cause

and effect and make one responsible

for such activities.

-----

The SUPERSEER, the transcendental

Lord is beyond the perception of the

material senses of the living enti-

ties because of passion, goodness,

and ignorance. But He is the control-

ler of EVERYONE.

------

The Lord, who is the controller of all

energies thus creates, by His own pot-

ency, eternal time, the fate of all li-

ving entities, and their particular na-

ture, for which they were created, and

He again merges them independently.
