Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"Real fact is that Kṛṣṇa is spiritual and He's the Supreme. Nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām (Kaṭha Upaniṣad 2.2.13). This is the Vedic injunction. God is the supreme nitya, eternal, and the supreme living being. In the dictionary also it is said, "God means the supreme being." They could not understand "supreme living being." But in the Vedas it is said not only supreme being, but supreme living being. Nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetānām eko yo bahūnāṁ vidadhāti kāmān (Kaṭha Upaniṣad 2.2.13). That is the description of God. So it is very difficult to understand even the spiritual substance, and what to speak of God. The beginning of spiritual knowledge is to understand first of all what is spirit. And they are taking the intelligence or mind as spirit. But that is not spirit. Beyond that. Apareyam itas tu viddhi me prakṛtim parā (BG 7.5)."
