"translation": "<b>When bulls are yoked together and tied to a central post to thresh rice, they tread around that pivot without deviating from their proper positions—one bull being closest to the post, another in the middle, and a third on the outside. Similarly, all the planets and all the hundreds and thousands of stars revolve around the polestar, the planet of Mahārāja Dhruva, in their respective orbits, some higher and some lower. Fastened by the Supreme Personality of Godhead to the machine of material nature according to the results of their fruitive acts, they are driven around the polestar by the wind and will continue to be so until the end of creation. These planets float in the air within the vast sky, just as clouds with hundreds of tons of water float in the air or as the great śyena eagles, due to the results of past activities, fly high in the sky and have no chance of falling to the ground.</b>",

"According to the description of this verse, the hundreds and thousands of stars and the great planets such as the sun, the moon, Venus, Mercury, Mars and Jupiter are not clustered together because of the law of gravity or any similar idea of the modern scientists. These planets and stars are all servants of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Govinda or Kṛṣṇa, and according to His order they sit in their chariots and travel in their respective orbits. The orbits in which they move are compared to machines given by material nature to the operating deities of the stars and planets, who carry out the orders of the Supreme Personality of Godhead by revolving around Dhruvaloka, which is occupied by the great devotee Mahārāja Dhruva. This is confirmed in the <i>Brahma-saṁhitā</i> (5.52) as follows:",
|
||||
"<i>yac-cakṣur eṣa savitā sakala-grahāṇāṁ<br/> rājā samasta-sura-mūrtir aśeṣa-tejāḥ<br/> yasyājñayā bhramati sambhṛta-kāla-cakro<br/> govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi</i>",
|
||||
"\"I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, under whose control even the sun, which is considered to be the eye of the Lord, rotates within the fixed orbit of eternal time. The sun is the king of all planetary systems and has unlimited potency in heat and light.\" This verse from <i>Brahma-saṁhitā</i> confirms that even the largest and most powerful planet, the sun, rotates within a fixed orbit, or <i>kāla-cakra,</i> in obedience to the order of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This has nothing to do with gravity or any other imaginary laws created by the material scientists.",
|
||||
"Material scientists want to avoid the ruling government of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and therefore they imagine different conditions under which they suppose the planets move. The only condition, however, is the order of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. All the various predominating deities of the planets are persons, and the Supreme Personality of Godhead is also a person. The Supreme Personality orders the subordinate persons, the demigods of various names, to carry out His supreme will. This fact is also confirmed in <i>Bhagavad-gītā</i> (<i>9.10</i>), wherein Kṛṣṇa says:",
|
||||
"<i>mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ<br/> sūyate sa-carācaram<br/> hetunānena kaunteya<br/> jagad viparivartate</i>",
|
||||
"\"This material nature is working under My direction, O son of Kuntī, and it is producing all moving and unmoving beings. By its rule this manifestation is created and annihilated again and again.\"",
|
||||
"The orbits of the planets resemble the bodies in which all living entities are seated because they are both machines controlled by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. As Kṛṣṇa says in <i>Bhagavad-gītā</i> (<i>18.61</i>):",
|
||||
"<i>īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ<br/> hṛd-deśe 'rjuna tiṣṭhati<br/> bhrāmayan sarva-bhūtāni<br/> yantrārūḍhāni māyayā</i>",
|
||||
"\"The Supreme Lord is situated in everyone's heart, O Arjuna, and is directing the wanderings of all living entities, who are seated as on a machine, made of the material energy.\" The machine given by material nature—whether the machine of the body or the machine of the orbit, or <i>kāla-cakra</i>—works according to the orders given by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Supreme Personality of Godhead and material nature work together to maintain this great universe, and not only this universe but also the millions of other universes beyond this one.",
|
||||
"The question of how the planets and stars are floating is also answered in this verse. It is not because of the laws of gravity. Rather, the planets and stars are enabled to float by manipulations of the air. It is due to such manipulations that big, heavy clouds float and big eagles fly in the sky. Modern airplanes like the 747 jet aircraft work in a similar way: by controlling the air, they float high in the sky, resisting the tendency to fall to earth. Such adjustments of the air are all made possible by the cooperation of the principles of <i>puruṣa</i> (male) and <i>prakṛti</i> (female). By the cooperation of material nature, which is considered to be <i>prakṛti,</i> and the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is considered the <i>puruṣa,</i> all the affairs of the universe are going on nicely in their proper order. <i>Prakṛti,</i> material nature, is also described in the <i>Brahma-saṁhitā</i> (5.44) as follows:",
|
||||
"<i>sṛṣṭi-sthiti-pralaya-sādhana-śaktir ekā<br/> chāyeva yasya bhuvanāni bibharti durgā<br/> icchānurūpam api yasya ca ceṣṭate sā<br/> govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi</i>",
|
||||
"\"The external potency, <i>māyā,</i> who is of the nature of the shadow of the <i>cit</i> [spiritual] potency, is worshiped by all people as Durgā, the creating, preserving and destroying agency of this mundane world. I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, in accordance with whose will Durgā conducts herself.\" Material nature, the external energy of the Supreme Lord, is also known as Durgā, or the female energy that protects the great fort of this universe. The word Durgā also means fort. This universe is just like a great fort in which all the conditioned souls are kept, and they cannot leave it unless they are liberated by the mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Lord Himself declares in <i>Bhagavad-gītā</i> (4.9):",
|
||||
"<i>janma karma ca me divyam<br/> evaṁ yo vetti tattvataḥ<br/> tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma<br/> naiti mām eti so 'rjuna</i>",
|
||||
"\"One who knows the transcendental nature of My appearance and activities does not, upon leaving the body, take his birth again in this material world, but attains My eternal abode, O Arjuna.\" Thus simply by Kṛṣṇa consciousness, by the mercy of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one can be liberated, or, in other words, one can be released from the great fort of this universe and go outside it to the spiritual world.",
|
||||
"It is also significant that the predominating deities of even the greatest planets have been offered their exalted posts because of the very valuable pious activities they performed in previous births. This is indicated herein by the words <i>karma-nirmita-gatayaḥ.</i> For example, as we have previously discussed, the moon is called <i>jīva,</i> which means that he is a living entity like us, but because of his pious activities he has been appointed to his post as the moon-god. Similarly, all the demigods are living entities who have been appointed to their various posts as the masters of the moon, the earth, Venus and so on because of their great service and pious acts. Only the predominating deity of the sun, Sūrya Nārāyaṇa, is an incarnation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Mahārāja Dhruva, the predominating deity of Dhruvaloka, is also a living entity. Thus there are two kinds of entities—the supreme entity, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and the ordinary living entity, the <i>jīva</i> (<i>nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām</i>). All the demigods are engaged in the service of the Lord, and only by such an arrangement are the affairs of the universe going on.",
|
||||
"Regarding the great eagles mentioned in this verse, it is understood that there are eagles so big that they can prey on big elephants. They fly so high that they can travel from one planet to another. They start flying in one planet and land in another, and while in flight they lay eggs that hatch into other birds while falling through the air. In Sanskrit such eagles are called <i>śyena.</i> Under the present circumstances, of course, we cannot see such huge birds, but at least we know of eagles that can capture monkeys and then throw them down to kill and eat them. Similarly, it is understood that there are gigantic birds that can carry off elephants, kill them and eat them.",
|
||||
"The two examples of the eagle and the cloud are sufficient to prove that flying and floating can be made possible through adjustments of the air. The planets, in a similar way, are floating because material nature adjusts the air according to the orders of the Supreme Lord. It could be said that these adjustments constitute the law of gravity, but in any case, one must accept that these laws are made by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The so-called scientists have no control over them. The scientists can falsely, improperly declare that there is no God, but this is not a fact."

On the end of its tail is the planet of Dhruva, on the body of its tail are the planets of the demigods Prajāpati, Agni, Indra and Dharma, and at the base of its tail are the planets of the demigods Dhātā and Vidhātā. Where the hips might be on the śiśumāra are the seven saintly sages like Vasiṣṭha and Aṅgirā. The coiled body of the Śiśumāra-cakra turns toward its right side, on which the fourteen constellations from Abhijit to Punarvasu are located. On its left side are the fourteen stars from Puṣyā to Uttarāṣāḍhā. Thus its body is balanced because its sides are occupied by an equal number of stars. On the back of the śiśumāra is the group of stars known as Ajavīthī, and on its abdomen is the Ganges that flows in the sky [the Milky Way].</b>",

"Summarizing the entire description of the planetary systems of the universe, Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura says that one who is able to meditate upon this arrangement as the <i>virāṭa-rūpa,</i> or <i>viśva-rūpa,</i> the external body of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and worship Him three times a day by meditation will always be free from all sinful reactions. Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura estimates that Dhruvaloka, the polestar, is 3,800,000 <i>yojanas</i> above the sun. Above Dhruvaloka by 10,000,000 <i>yojanas</i> is Maharloka, above Maharloka by 20,000,000 <i>yojanas</i> is Janaloka, above Janaloka by 80,000,000 <i>yojanas</i> is Tapoloka, and above Tapoloka by 120,000,000 <i>yojanas</i> is Satyaloka. Thus the distance from the sun to Satyaloka is 233,800,000 <i>yojanas,</i> or 1,870,400,000 miles. The Vaikuṇṭha planets begin 26,200,000 <i>yojanas</i> (209,600,000 miles) above Satyaloka. Thus the <i>Viṣṇu Purāṇa</i> describes that the covering of the universe is 260,000,000 <i>yojanas</i> (2,080,000,000 miles) away from the sun. The distance from the sun to the earth is 100,000 yojanas, and below the earth by 70,000 yojanas are the seven lower planetary systems called Atala, Vitala, Sutala, Talātala, Mahātala, Rasātala and Pātāla. Below these lower planets by 30,000 <i>yojanas,</i> Śeṣa Nāga is lying on the Garbhodaka Ocean. That ocean is 249,800,000 <i>yojanas</i> deep. Thus the total diameter of the universe is approximately 500,000,000 <i>yojanas,</i> or 4,000,000,000 miles."
