Everything is In Krishna
Everything is in Krishna. Nothing exists outside of Krishna. This was practically realized by Mother Yasoda when she looked into Krishna's mouth. It is confirmed by Lord Brahma when he states that Krishna's form is endless. Just consider the inconceivable potency of Krishna. He can be in one place engaged in a transcendental pastime while at the same time He is everywhere with everything existing within Him. This is God.

Question: The Deathless Soul Attains Deathlessness?
You recently wrote, "bestowing deathlessness upon two sincere souls by formally initiating them as my disciples." But the Bhagavad-gita says that the soul has neither death or birth. So how is it that one becomes deathless at the time of initiation even though he is already deathless?Ravishankar

Answer: Until Initiation His Deathlessness is Not Realized
It is a fact that the soul is already deathless before one takes initiation. So why then is it said by Srila Prabhupada that one's deathlessness begins from the day of one's initiation? The reason is that even though the soul is deathless, he is still identifying himself with his dead material body until he takes complete shelter of the bona fide spiritual master. In other words, before initiation his deathlessness, although there within him, is not realized. It is only after initiation that his true deathless nature becomes realized. Before initiation he still lives within the realm of mortality. And after initiation he lives in the realm of immortality. Before initiation he is like a fish trying to be happy artificially on the land, and after initiation he is like a fish who is re-established in his natural constitutional position as a creature of the water.Sankarshan Das Adhikari
