fragmental parts. Due to conditioned life, they are struggling very hard with the six senses,
which include the mind."
"Sri Krishna said: O Arjuna, The living entity in the material world carries his different
conceptions of life from one body to another as the air carries aromas. Thus he takes one kind of
body and again quits it to take another."

realization, can see all this clearly. But those whose minds are not developed and who are not
situated in self-realization cannot see what is taking place, though they may try to."
"Sri Krishna said: O Arjuna, I am seated in everyone’s heart, and from Me come remembrance,

"Sri Krishna said: Just as boyhood, youth & old age are attributed to the soul & the embodied
soul continuously passes through these cycles, similarly the embodied soul passes into another
body at death. The wise man does not get deluded & bewildered with such a change."

has thus been perceived by the seers of the truth."

living entity / soul are spoken of as perishable; therefore, fight, Arjuna."
"Sri Krishna said: The soul is never born nor dies at any time. Soul has not come into being, does
not come into being, and will not come into being. Soul is unborn, eternal, ever-existing and
primeval. Soul is not slain when the body is slain."
"Sri Krishna said: As a human being puts on new garments, giving up old ones, the soul similarly
accepts new material bodies, giving up the old and useless ones."
"Sri Krishna said: Know that to be imperishable & indestructible, by which all this is pervaded;
for none can bring about the destruction of this indestructible substance, the imperishable soul."
