God means . . . just like when we speak of "king." King does not mean alone. King means he has got his queen, he has got his kingdom, he has got his secretary, he has got his minister, he has got his palace, he has . . . so many things, king, royal.

That is . . . because he's thinking materially that, "This cosmic manifestation, then creation, is so big, and it is created by a person. How it is possible?" But . . . because they do not know what is that person. Simply by the word "person," he is afraid: "Oh, oh, oh, oh."
