Krsna expands Himself to be ALWAYS with every marginal living entity simultaneously. NEVER is Krsna not with us as the painting reveals.

Krsna is like the Sun and all of his different expansions are like the Sunrays.

So what are the categories of Krsna's "parts and parcels" or different types of expansions?

We are all expansions of Krsna.

As Paramatma, Krsna expands as His Narayana or Vishnu Form in the material creation and never leaves the side of all marginal living entities (jiva tattva) while they take different material bodies (8 million 400 thousand species of life) in the material creation.

However, He also never interferes with the personal choices of each individual, the Lord encourages the jiva tattva to follow His instructions but NEVER forces them to do so.

If Krsna or any of His expansions did, then how can there be genuine love?

In the material worlds, every jiva tattva soul is responsible  for their actions, again Krsna does not interfere because the choices that has lead to ones happiness and suffering is the cause of their present situation.

Some, due to ignorance, blame God for what they believe is God allowing so much suffering to happen, little kids dying of cancer or killed or maimed in car accidents.

But no, this is not Krsna's fault, He does not interfere because each jiva tattva soul has THEIR free will that means it was THEIR choices that has lead to their suffering or enjoying in the material creation.

This build up of reactions to one's good and bad actions (karma) happens over thousands of life times.

One may be just now getting the result from an action done in a life 100 or a million material bodies back!!

This is the real cause of our present situation.

And Krsna, as His Vishnu expansion, never interferes or rarely interferes (He can if He wants because He is above all rules and regulations).

We should also know Krsna never leaves Goloka Vrindavana,  all activities in the material creation by the Lord are performed by His Narayana or vishnu expansions and not directly by Krsna in His original form with 64 qualities.

Krishna is like the Sun and all of his different expansions under different headings are like the Sunrays.

So what are the categories of Krsna's "parts and parcels" of different expansions?

1 - Vishnu-tattvas (93% of Krsna's qualities) like His older brother Balarama and Vishnu or Narayana in each Vaikuntha Planet, or Maha Vishnu, Garbhodakashayi Visnu and Paramatma who enter the material creation

2 - Sakti-vishnu-tattvas (93% of Krsna's qualities), like Srimati Radharani some, leading gopis and gopas and other associates and residents of Vrindavan or many who appear in Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu's lila.

None of these can ever fall down to the material world because they are "direct" expansions of Krsna.

The majority of living entities are Shakti-Vishnu-tatvas in the vast Spiritual Worlds.

And, as explained above, can never fall down because they are direct expansions of Krsna who is just playing another role in His unlimited pastimes (lilas) in either the Vaikuntha Planets or Goloka Vrindavan.

In other words, they ARE Krsna in a different form experiencing His own pastimes.

3 - Shiva-tattva (84% of Krsna's qualities) in a league of His own. Many scholars believe Hanuman is an incarnation of Shiva, but not all.

4 - jiva-tattvas that have 78% of Krsna's qualities and are known as the "marginal living entities" are also Krsna's expansions but NOT direct expansions like above.

The jiva tattvas or marginal living entities, are NOT directly krsna, like the above 2 categories are, they are independent thinking living entities with their own sense of self, eternally.

The marginal living entities are also known as the jiva tattva or jivatma, they have their own "sense of individual self" that is independent and separate from Krsna's personality, they are their own person as individuals yet always are fully dependent on Krsna's energies, whether in the Spiritual or material worlds.

All jiva-tattva (souls) have perpetual free will as part of their marginal make up, and therefore have the ability to choose for themselves in both Vaikuntha and Goloka Vrindavan as part of their marginal constitution.

This means, as separate thinking living entities, they can choose to be with Krishna or Vishnu, or reject the Lord and enter the material creation.

From there in the material creation, after being frustrated with material life, they can also choose to enter the impersonal Brahmajyoti effulgence and hover inactive their in a dormant state for billions of years if they want.

However, merging into the impersonal Brahmajyoti is also temporary, even if one believes its for eternity.

Eventually ALL fall down from the impersonal Brahmajyoti because it is not permanent, and have to again take birth in lower species.

From there, they have to progress within nature, and progress, through the cycle of birth and death, back to the human species where again one has the opportunity to realize "their full potential" as a spiritual individual personal living being.

Fortunately for most marginal living entities, over 90%, according to Srila Prabhupada, NEVER make that foolish choice and enter the  mundane decaying material creation.

From the Book "Teachings of Lord Caitanya"

Srila Prabhupada - "There are also forms of Kṛṣṇa that are a little different from His original form, and these are called tad-ekātma-rūpa forms.

These may be further divided into the vilāsa and svāṁśa forms, which in turn have many different features and can be divided into prābhava and vaibhava forms.

As far as the vilāsa forms are concerned, there are innumerable prābhava-vilāsas, headed by Kṛṣṇa's expansions as Vāsudeva, Saṅkarṣaṇa, Pradyumna and Aniruddha.

Sometimes the Lord thinks of Himself as a cowherd boy, and sometimes He thinks of Himself as Vasudeva's son, a kṣatriya prince, and this "thinking" of Kṛṣṇa is called His "pastimes."

Actually, He is in the same form in His vaibhava-prakāśa and prābhava-vilāsa, but He appears differently as Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma".

Krsna's "personal love" for all living entities is far greater than any of them can ever love Him or fully understand.

Krsna expands Himself to be ALWAYS with every marginal living entity simultaneously.

NEVER is Krsna not with us as this painting reveals.

  1. The goal in spiritual life is to never deny, extinguish, or attempt to surrender your free will and individuality which is the basis of who you are as a independent person, and is the constitutional make up of every marginal living entity.

    Srila Prabhupada - "If you have no free will, then you are a stone. The stone has no free will. You want to be stone? Then you must have free will!". (August 5, 1976, New Mayapur France)

    Srila Prabhupada - "So, unless there is a possibility of misusing our free will, there is no question of freedom.” (Dialectical Spiritualism, Critique of Descartes)

    The jiva souls in Vaikuntha or Goloka Vrindavana therefore are forever expanding their sense of individuality with personal offerings based on selfless loving reciprocation with Krishna, it is NEVER a one sided relation with the Lord.

    Srila Prabhupada - "Love is reciprocal, voluntary, good exchange of feeling. Then there is love. Not by force, no, Krishna does not want to become a lover like that, ‘You love me, otherwise I shall kill you!" (July 8, 1976)

    Real love is reciprocal, as said above, it is NEVER a one way street where surrender to Krishna takes away one's sense of self, individuality and personal contributions.

    Devotee - "Srila Prabhupada why did Krishna give us free will if He knew we would miss use it in the material world?"

    Srila Prabhupada - "If you have no free will, then you are a stone. The stone has no free will. You want to be stone? Then you must have free will! But don't misuse your free will. But don't try to become stone either. That is not life". (August 5, 1976, New Mayapur France)

    This is important to understand because each individual jiva-soul has their own independent personality, sense of self and unique characteristics that THEY only individually have that is part and parcel of each individual marginal living entities make up as the independent eternal "person" they are.

    Srila Prabhupada - “Because you are Son of God you have got independence, full independence, almighty—therefore you have acquired the quality of your father. You have got little independence. "So God does not interfere with your little independence”. (Conversation in Melbourne, Australia June 25, 1974 between Srila Prabhupada and his disciples)

    Devotee – "But In the Srimad-Bhagavatam, it says that Krishna did not want us to come to this material world. If Krishna did not want us to come, why are we here?” Why doesn’t He save me from thinking like that? ”

    Srila Prabhupada - “That means YOU lose your independence. That is force, in Bengali it is said, ‘If you catch one girl or boy, ‘You love me, you love me, you love me.’ ” Is it love? “You love me, otherwise I will kill you!’ Is that love? So Krishna does not want to become a lover like that, on the point of revolver. ‘You love me, otherwise I shall kill you!’ That is not love; that is threatening. Love is reciprocal, voluntary, good exchange of feeling. Then there is love. Not by force; that is rape. Why one is called lover, another is called rape?” (July 8, 1976 in Washington, D.C)
