Mountain. Krishna and Arjuna went to meet Maha
Vishnu. There are many examples of multiple
incarnations being present at the same time in
the pastimes of the Lord. This is explained by Lord
Caitanya as acintya bhedabheda tattva the absolute
truth is inconceivable and simultaneous oneness
and difference.
Great sages have therefore glorified the Lord by
different names. Thus when the original person Lord
Krishna, the source of all incarnations, is sometimes
described as an incarnation, there is no discrepancy.
The kingdom of God, Vaikuṇṭha, is certainly a
mystery for a gross materialist. But to an ignorant
man everything is a mystery because of a lack of
knowledge. However, the kingdom of God or the
spiritual world is not a myth. For the less informed,
the material planets in this world of which there are
millions are another source of wonder and perplexity.
Material scientists are now attempting to penetrate
this mystery, and a day may come when the people
of this earth will be able to travel in outer space and
see the variegatedness of these millions of planets
with their own eyes. In every planet there is as much
material variegatedness as we find in our own planet.
