Krsna’s energy is working. Parasya brahmanah saktih. Without Krsna’s energy, how everything is taking place? Material nature is not working independently, not by accident. It is not accident that exactly at 6:30 or 6:15 the sun is rising.One day you may say, “The sun is rising at 6:30 by accident.” But daily?
The sun, moon, or anything material that is working, we see they are working very wonderfully, but don’t think that they are working automatically or independently. No. That is not possible.
Therefore, superior, inferior everything is systematically being done according to the desire. They say, “Not a blade of grass moves without the desire of Krsna.” That’s a fact. Without Krsna’s desire, every step we are going forward, it is guided by Krsna. It is not directly by Krsna but through the instrument of Krsna. This is nature. Nature is nothing but instrument.
We are packed up within this fort. You see the round sky. It is just like a football. And within, we are packed up. Just like the soldiers, they are within the fort or there are other persons also, similarly, this is a durga. Sristi-sthiti-pralaya-sadhana-saktir eka chayeva yasya bhuvanani vibharti durga [Bs. 5.44]
Duh means difficult, and ga means going. Dur-ga. So because the nature is feminine, therefore it is called Durga. So just like in the fort, in the jail, if you are put, it is dur-ga, very difficult to come out, very, very difficult. Therefore it is called dur-ga. You cannot enter in the fort or in the jail. Big, big walls, you cannot enter there without permission, and you cannot come out without permission.
So this Durga, or durga-sakti, material energy, very, very powerful. You cannot come out from this fort of material existence without superior permission. That is Krsna’s permission. Mayadhyaksena: [Bg. 9.10] “Under My vigilence, under My superintendence this material energy is working.” Therefore those who surrender unto Krsna, can easily cross over this inferior but divine material energy.
Srila Prabhupada.
