“In the same way, it is in the very presence of the Ātma's Caitanya that each of the senses does its own work. As soon as the sun rises, the birds rise and fly off, flowers open, and water-lilies close. People go off, each to his own work. Mud gives up the water in it and hardens. But is the sun the doer of all these? He only presides over them. In truth the Ātma is transcendent; it is in no way bound by the properties of the senses,” said Kṛṣṇa.
