PURPORT

Lord Krsna, the son of Nanda Maharaja, is advaya-jnana; in other words, there is no distinction between His body and soul, for His existence is completely spiritual.

According to the verse from Srimad-Bhagavatam beginning with the words vadanti tat tattva-vidas tattvam (1.2.11), the Absolute Truth is always to be understood from three angles of vision as Brahman, Paramatma and Bhagavan.

Unlike the objects of the material world, however, the Absolute Truth is always one and always the same.

Thus there is no distinction between His body and soul.

His form, name, attributes and pastimes, therefore, are completely distinct from those of the material world.

One should know perfectly well that there is no difference between the body and soul of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

When one conceives of a distinction between His body and soul, one is immediately conditioned by material nature.

Because a person in the material world makes such distinctions, he is called baddha-jiva, a conditioned soul.
