"In Bhagavad-gita Lord Krsna declares, "I enter into each planet, and by My energy they stay in orbit. I become the moon and thereby supply the juice of life to all vegetables." (Bg. 15.13)

 

"By His strength and energy, all moving and nonmoving things stay in their place. It is said in the Vedic hymns that because of the Supreme Personality of Godhead the sun is shining and the planets are steadily moving. Were it not for Him, all the planets would scatter, like dust in air, and perish. Similarly, it is due to the Supreme Personality of Godhead that the moon nourishes all vegetables. Due to the moon's influence, the vegetables become delicious. Without the moonshine, the vegetables can neither grow nor taste succulent. Human society is working, living comfortably and enjoying food due to the supply from the Supreme Lord. Otherwise, mankind could not survive. The word rasatmakah is very significant. Everything becomes palatable by the agency of the Supreme Lord through the influence of the moon." Bg 15.13...excert from purport by His Divine Grace AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

 

"Prabhupada, it is stated in your Bhagavad-gita purport that because of the moonlight, vegetables have taste. So why is it that the moon makes the vegetables have flavor?"

Prabhupada stopped walking to consider her question. His demeanor was mellow and soft, but his look penetrated into her eyes.

"Why don't you ask him?" was his only reply, and then he walked on.

Visakha-devi dasi, interview. Srila Prabhupada's reply was unexpected. Instead of telling why the moon gave taste, he replied, in effect, "Why don't you ask the moon yourself?" Another expert way of teaching."Srila PRabhupada Nectar 1-5: Because of the Moonlight Vegetables Have Taste
