CC Ādi 5.84 — “In the beginning of the creation, the Lord expanded Himself in the form of the puruṣa incarnation, accompanied by all the ingredients of material creation. First He created the sixteen principal energies suitable for creation. This was for the purpose of manifesting the material universes.”
CC Ādi 5.85 — Although the Lord is the shelter of everything and although all the universes rest in Him, He, as the Supersoul, is also the support of everything.
CC Ādi 5.86 — Although He is thus connected with the material energy in two ways, He does not have the slightest contact with it.
CC Ādi 5.87 — “This is the opulence of the Lord. Although situated within the material nature, He is never affected by the modes of nature. Similarly, those who have surrendered to Him and have fixed their intelligence upon Him are not influenced by the modes of nature.”
CC Ādi 5.88 — Thus the Bhagavad-gītā also states again and again that the Absolute Truth always possesses inconceivable power.
CC Ādi 5.89 — [Lord Kṛṣṇa said:] “I am situated in the material world, and the world rests in Me. But at the same time I am not situated in the material world, nor does it rest in Me in truth.
