This individual soul is unbreakable and insoluble, and can be neither burned nor dried. He is everlasting, present
everywhere, unchangeable, immovable and eternally the same. (Bg 2.24)

Sarva-gatah means all-pervading. If living entities are all-pervading and everywhere present, then the Supersoul
(Paramatma) which is present in the heart of every living entity is also all-pervading. This is stated:

mayā tatam idaṁ sarvaṁ / jagad avyakta-mūrtinā
mat-sthāni sarva-bhūtāni / na cāhaṁ teṣv avasthitaḥ

By Me, in My unmanifested form, this entire universe is pervaded. All beings are in Me, but I am not in them. (Bg
9.4)

atha vā bahunaitena / kiṁ jñātena tavārjuna
viṣṭabhyāham idaṁ kṛtsnam / ekāṁśena sthito jagat

But what need is there, Arjuna, for all this detailed knowledge? With a single fragment of Myself I pervade and
support this entire universe. (Bg 10.42)
Therefore, everything in material nature is actually personal. Impersonality is an incorrect perception due to
incomplete knowledge and the limited senses of human beings. For example, the light coming from a light bulb
may seem impersonal. The background arrangement by which electricity flows to the light bulb and produces
light is organized and directed by persons in the electric company factory. The generators in the factory are
driven by either, coal, oil, gas, wind, water or nuclear power which produce electrical energy. These are all
dependent on the sun’s light which is the origin of all energy in the universe. Coal, oil and gas are produced from
ancient plants that captured the energy of sunlight by photosynthesis and were compacted for a very long time.

Water is produced by Krishna who is the origin of all matter. The sunlight evaporates water from the vast ocean
and due to the engineering genius of Lord Krishna vast amounts of water are suspended in the atmosphere by
clouds. Winds move the clouds. The heat and light of the sun is the cause of all weather conditions such as
evaporation of water from the oceans that become clouds and the wind that pushes the clouds over land. The
following quote explains this:
The (sun’s) heating is uneven, because of night and day, because different surfaces (such as rocks and trees)
absorb and reflect sunlight in different amounts, and because sunlight hits the equator more directly than the
poles. Uneven heat creates pressure differences, and wind flows between areas of high and low pressure. (By

Lord Krishna is the source of all matter:

bhūmir āpo ’nalo vāyuḥ / khaṁ mano buddhir eva ca
ahaṅkāra itīyaṁ me / bhinnā prakṛtir aṣṭadhā

Earth, water, fire, air, ether, mind, intelligence and false ego – all together these eight constitute My separated
material energies.

He is present in every atom. All energy in the universe is coming from the expanding effulgence of His body, the
brahmajyoti. This effulgence enters the material universe by reflection off the sun and the moon and
subsequently is expanded all through the universe to sustain life. The brahmajyoti effulgence is constituted by
innumerable living entities’ souls which are compared to pencils of rays of effulgence (BS 5.16 – purport).
