			"Kṛṣṇa, who is known as Govinda, is the supreme controller. He has an eternal, blissful, spiritual body. He is the origin of all. He has no other origin, for He is the prime cause of all causes." (BS 5.1) The test of a perfect devotee is that he sees Govinda everywhere in this universe, even in every atomic particle (''aṇḍa-ntara-stha-paramāṇu-cayāntara-stham''). This is the perfect vision of a devotee. It is therefore said:

Just as those who are greedy see everything as a source of money-making and those who are lusty see everything as being conducive to sex, the most perfect devotee, Prahlāda Mahārāja, saw Nārāyaṇa even within a stone column. This does not mean, however, that we must accept the words ''daridra-nārāyaṇa'', which have been manufactured by some unscrupulous person. One who actually envisions Nārāyaṇa everywhere makes no distinction between the poor and the rich. To single out the ''daridra-nārāyaṇas'', or poor Nārāyaṇa, and reject the ''dhani-nārāyaṇa'', or rich Nārāyaṇa, is not the vision of a devotee. Rather, that is the imperfect vision of materialistic persons.
