You see an emperor, his officers and his messengers. All of them are due to
the existence of the empire. They are all different. The emperor enjoys
elephants, palanqines, different vehicles etc. He controls others at his
will. His officers have to act according to his orders. Their wishes are
dependent on those of the emperor's. The messengers have to execute his
orders. Their own will is limited here. The subjects are under the envelope
of the power of the emperor.
Everything, the emperorship, messengership and also the subjecthood, are all
dependent on this power. This power, however, is different from all of them.
When the emperor dies, the power of the empire does not cease to be.

We can easily understand the different aspects of this power. He who becomes
one with the power becomes the emperor, though the power is independent,
everything happens when one is supported by it. Nana, you sit in the chair
(of the Secretary) due to the power of the empire. Your peon who swings the
fan over your head does so due to the same power. Both of you are there (in
the office) due to the same power but you perform different duties. The
emperor fully enjoys this power. A part of it is enjoyed by the officers.
The peon enjoys even a smaller part of it. The subjects, too, enjoy under
its aegis. Thus, the spiritual souls become one with the Bramhan and enjoy
complete bliss.

Upon this Nana asked very politely, How can one divide the formless power of
the empire into different parts? Once we name the different parts, its
nature of being formless vanishes (Hence it contradicts the assumption).

Baba said. “A very good question, Nana! I am very glad you asked it. The
power of the empire, certainly, cannot be divided. We, however perceive its
divisions (parts). Same is the case with the Chaitanya which appears to be
infinite but one perceives its parts. Though one cannot divide it into parts
the recipients enjoy it partially according to their abilities. The space
occupies small and big pots, utensils and the sky. The containers may have
different capacities to fill the space. Does it, then, mean that the space
is divided? Nana, understand this. This is the case here too. This is how
the soul is. I have explained to you the nature of the Soul.
