PURPORT
It is said in the Brahma Samhita (ch. V.) that the Supreme Lord Govinda by His one plenary portion enters into the halo of the universe and distributes himself as Paramatma or the supersoul not only within the heart of every living being, but also even within every atom of material elements. Thus He is all pervading by His inconceivable potency and as such the Lord entered also the womb of Uttara to save His beloved devotee Maharaj Parikshit. In the Bhagwat Geeta (B.G. 9/13) the Lord has assured everyone that His devotees are never to be vanquished. Nobody can kill a devotee of the Lord, because he is protected by the Lord and nobody can save a person whom the Lord desires to kill. The Lord is all powerful and therefore He can both save and kill as He likes. He became visible to His devotee Maharaj Parikshit even in that awkward position in the womb of his mother in the shape just suitable for his vision. The Lord can become bigger than thousands of universes and can become smaller than the atom at the same time. Merciful as He is, He becomes just suitable to the vision of the limited living being. He is unlimited means that He is not limited by any measurement of our calculation. He can become bigger than what we can think of and He can become smaller than what we can conceive. But in all circumstances He is the same all powerful. There is no difference between the Thumblike Vishnu in the womb of Uttara and the full fledged Narayana in the Vaikuntha Dhama the Kingdom of Godhead. He accepts the form of Archa Vigraha (worshipable Deity) just to accept service from His different incapable devotees. By the mercy of the Archa Vigraha the form of material elements, the devotees who are in the material world can easily approach the Lord although He is not conceivable by the material senses. The Archa Vigraha is therefore all spiritual Form of the Lord in order to be perceived by the material devotees but such Archa Vigraha of the Lord is never to be conceived as material. There is no difference of matter and spirit for the Lord, although there is gulf of difference between the two in the case of the conditioned living being. As for the Lord there is nothing except spiritual existence so also there is nothing except spiritual existence for the pure devotee of the Lord on his intimate relation with the Lord.
