"In the Bhagavad-gītā there are description of two consciousness. Just like I am conscious throughout my body. If you pinch any part of my body, then I feel. That is my consciousness. So I am spread..., my consciousness is spread all over my body. This is explained in the Bhagavad-gītā, avināśi tad viddhi yena sarvam idaṁ tatam (BG 2.17): 'That consciousness which is spread all over this body, that is eternal.' And antavanta ime dehā nityasyoktāḥ śarīriṇa (BG 2.18): 'But this body is antavat,' means perishable. 'This body is perishable, but that consciousness is imperishable, eternal.'" And that consciousness, or the soul, is transmigrating from one body to another. Just like we are changing dress."
