Lectures from a Disciple, Vol. 2, Overcoming Adversity, p. 185
The great power of devotion attracts the Lord, and He will personally carry whatever His devotees lack. If we simply depend on Him fully, He assures us that He will carry whatever we lack in our attempt to return to Him at the end of this material life.
Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Bhagavad-gita 2.23-24, London, 27 August, 1973
Here it is said, Arjuna might be thinking that "Krsna says this body is different from the soul. The soul is within. So now suppose when I place my sword on the body of my grandfather or my kinsmen, the body will cut, and in the meantime, the soul is within the body, it may be cut, because the soul is there. By accidentally, he may be cut." Therefore Krsna says very distinctly, nainam chindanti sastrani, that "Soul cannot be cut, any weapon. It cannot be pierced by your arrows, it cannot be cut into pieces by your sword, or if you use firearms it will not burn." Nainam dahati pavakah. This is the position of soul: immutable, indestructible.
