Within the unlimited are the unlimited limited
Within the inconceivable power of the Sun , are practically uncountable photons, particles of light, incidentally, light is not made of atoms, everything else in our material universe is .
According to the Vedas, the Sun is a devolved energy from the original spiritual light that the Vedas refer to as the brahman effulgence . Mahavisnu possesses multifarious energies, spiritual light being one of them . Atomic and electro magnetic capacity is drawn from the original source of the Bramajyoti . Scientifically speaking , light can not be destroyed , but can be obsorbed , if not obsorbed the light particals will it carry on existing, within universal time , thus the hint of the eternal spiritual light is given .
The Vedas often give analogies to explain various philosophical points , eg., the Sun can be compared to God , and the particles of light of the sun are compared to countless conscious living beings , who have the same qualities of God in their pure existence , but not the same quantity of powers or attraction . Within the unlimited Divinity are the unlimited “limited’s .” Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu has revealed to the world the truth of the simultaneously and inconceivably oneness and difference . Individual living beings are expanded from Divinity . The unlimited expands Himself into the unlimited limited , and thus , in spiritual math , one plus one equals one , one minus one equals one . Srila Jiva Goswami , in his Tattva Sandarbha, says that Divinity has made the impossible possible.
Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu has given us this understanding of the inconceivable and simultaneous one and difference between Himself and His part and parcels . This is the explanation of the origins of all particles of consciousness, or souls . The eternals come from the eternal, and there is no limit to the eternal’s . In that way, it’s understood that there has never been a time when we or God did not exist. Some souls are manifestly active , and some dormant , ready to be expanded.
It is concluded by great Vaisnava philosophically minded thinkers that an over emphasise of the oneness, or an over emphasise of the difference, are both unsound philosophical positions . The truths about God and the souls or particles of consciousness are revealed by Mahāprabhu and explained perfectly by Srila Jiva Goswami in his Tattva Sandarbha drawing such truth from the Srimad Bhagavatam the natural commentary of the Vedanta Sutras.
