The Personality of Godhead Sri Krishna is known as Ajita or unconquerable, as He is so in every respect. Even nobody can know His actual postion. He is unconquerable by knowledge also. We have heard about His Dhama or place, eternal about Goloka Vrindaban, but there are many scholars who interpret this abode in different ways. But by the grace of a spiritual master like Sukadeva Goswami, unto whom the king gave himself up as the most humble disciple, he was able to understand the actual position of the Lord, about His eternal abode, and His transcendental paraphernalia in that Dhama or abode. Knowing this transcendental position of the Lord and the transcendental method by which one can approach that transcendental Dhama, the king was confident about his ultimate goal of destination and knowing this only he could leave aside everthing material even his own body without any difficulty of attachment. In the Bhagwat Geeta, this is stated as Param Dristwa Nevertate or one can give up all connection of the material attachment when one is able to see the Param or the superior quality of a thing. We understand the superior quality of energy of the Lord than the material quality material energy, from the Bhagwat Geeta and by the grace of a bonafide spiritual master like Sukadeva Goswami it is quite possible to know everything of the superior energy of the Lord by which the Lord manifests His eternal Name, Quality, Pastimes, Paraphernalia and variegatedness. Unless one thoroughly understands this superior or eternal energy of the Lord it is not pssible to leave aside the material energy however theoretically one may speculate on the true nature of the Absolute Truth. By the Grace of Lord Krishna, Maharaj Parikshit was able to receive mercy of a Personality like Sukadeva Goswami and thus he was able to know the actual position of the unconquerable Lord. It is very difficult to find out the Lord from the Vedic literatures but it is very easy to know Him by the mercy of a liberated devotee like Sukadeva Goswami. #/div# #/div# please wait#div class="mw-parser-output"##p class="mw-empty-elt"# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="TEXT_3"#TEXT 3#/span##/h4# #div class="verse"# #dl##dd#utsṛjya sarvataḥ saṅgaṁ#/dd# #dd#vijñātājita-saṁsthitiḥ#/dd# #dd#vaiyāsaker jahau śiṣyo#/dd# #dd#gaṅgāyāṁ svaṁ kalevaram#/dd##/dl# #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="SYNONYMS"#SYNONYMS#/span##/h4# #div class="synonyms"# #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=utsṛjya&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#utsṛjya#/i# — after leaving aside; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=sarvataḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#sarvataḥ#/i# — all around; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=saṅgam&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#saṅgam#/i# — association; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=vijñāta&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#vijñāta#/i# — being understood; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=ajita&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#ajita#/i# — one who is never conquered (the Personality of Godhead); #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=saṁsthitiḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#saṁsthitiḥ#/i# — actual position; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=vaiyāsakeḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#vaiyāsakeḥ#/i# — unto the son of Vyāsa; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=jahau&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#jahau#/i# — gave up; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=śiṣyaḥ&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#śiṣyaḥ#/i# — as a disciple; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=gaṅgāyām&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#gaṅgāyām#/i# — on the bank of the Ganges; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=svam&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#svam#/i# — his own; #i##a target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" class="external text" href="//vanipedia.org/wiki/Special:VaniSearch?s=kalevaram&tab=syno_o&ds=1"#kalevaram#/i# — material body. #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="TRANSLATION"#TRANSLATION#/span##/h4# #div class="translation"# Furthermore, after leaving all his associates, the King surrendered himself as a disciple to the son of Vyāsa [Śukadeva Gosvāmī], and thus he was able to understand the actual position of the Personality of Godhead. #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="PURPORT"#PURPORT#/span##/h4# #div class="purport"# The word #i#ajita#/i# is significant here. The Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, is known as Ajita, or unconquerable, and He is so in every respect. No one can know His actual position. He is unconquerable by knowledge also.

From #i#Bhagavad-gītā#/i# we understand the quality of the Lord's energy that is superior to the material quality of energy, and by the grace of a bona fide spiritual master like Śukadeva Gosvāmī, it is quite possible to know everything of the superior energy of the Lord by which the Lord manifests His eternal name, quality, pastimes, paraphernalia and variegatedness. Unless one thoroughly understands this superior or eternal energy of the Lord, it is not possible to leave the material energy, however one may theoretically speculate on the true nature of the Absolute Truth. By the grace of Lord Kṛṣṇa, Mahārāja Parīkṣit was able to receive the mercy of such a personality as Śukadeva Gosvāmī, and thus he was able to know the actual position of the unconquerable Lord. It is very difficult to find the Lord from the Vedic literatures, but it is very easy to know Him by the mercy of a liberated devotee like Śukadeva Gosvāmī. #/div# #/div#
