A
- A yogi can go anywhere he desires without mechanical help

B
- Behind all the jugglery of the natural laws is a great living being, who is a person like the mechanical engineer in the powerhouse. It is by His intelligence that the entire cosmic creation moves in a systematic way

- Bhismadeva was known all over the universes, and during his time interplanetary travel was effected by finer methods than the futile endeavors of mechanical spacecraft
- By its (omkara) chanting by the mind, in conjunction with the breathing process, a transcendental but mechanical way of getting into trance, as devised by the experience of great mystics, one is able to bring the mind, materially absorbed, under control
- By the material life, these are our field of activities. The body is a combination of all these things. Just like a huge computer machine. It is made of these material things, but the mechanical parts are very minute, different
C
- Computer. That is mechanical, the calculating. The calculating process is there, but by nice machine, it has shortened. That process is Krsna's energy. He is so expert that it is just like computers - immediately comes. Not that the process is not there

I
- If one tries to enter higher planets by mechanical means, instant death is assured, for the body cannot stand the radical changes in atmosphere

- If you have got time, if, if you haven't got to do anything else, you can continue, sixteen hundred. It is not mechanical: "Now I have finished sixteen rounds, that's all." Why sixteen rounds? You chant sixteen hundred rounds
