<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- May 7, 1975, Perth|Morning Walk -- May 7, 1975, Perth]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Amogha: Śrīla Prabhupāda? When a spirit soul first falls from the spiritual sky into the material world, does he first go to the lowest of the 8,400,000 species of life, and then gradually come up, or can he fall to the middle or anywhere?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: According to his desire. In the beginning it is not so fall down.</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: In a purport in the Fourth Canto you say that usually they take human forms, because they are desiring to enjoy in that way. And then they begin falling down.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, the more they enjoy, the more they become entangled. (pause) Does it snow here?</p>
<p>Amogha: No. In the mountains.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Mountains. (pause) ...it is said that sun is the source of everything within this universe. Maintenance of all living entities. The source within the universe is the sun. Therefore this Gāyatrī mantra is worshiping the sun, oṁ bhūr bhuvaḥ svaḥ tat savitur vareṇyaṁ bhargo devasya dhīmahi.</p>
