The supreme planet, that of God, resembles a beautiful lotus flower.
In truth, beyond the material cosmos lies the spiritual world with its countless spiritual planets, including the supreme planet where Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, resides permanently, never leaving Him.
The supreme planet called Krishnaloka is divided into three regions called Dvaraka, Mathura, and Gokula. In this abode, the Supreme Lord, Krishna, manifests in the form of four plenary emanations: Krishna, Balarama, Pradyumna, and Aniruddha, known to be the original fourfold form. These are the Elohim spoken of in the Bible.
On Krishnaloka, there is a transcendental place called Svetadvipa, also called Virndavana.
The supreme planet where Lord Krishna resides is immense, larger than all the spiritual and material planets combined. Below Krishnaloka, in the immense spiritual sky, float all the spiritual planets. Each of them is larger than all the material planets in a galaxy combined. Over each of the spiritual planets reigns Narayana, the four-armed emanation of the original fourfold manifestation.
The divine personality known as Narayana at Krishnaloka is the original Sankarsana (attractive deity), and from him emanates a second Sankarsana called Maha-Sankarsana, who resides on one of the spiritual planets. By his internal potency, Maha-Sankarsana ensures the transcendental existence of all the heavenly bodies floating in the spiritual sky, and all their inhabitants are eternally liberated souls.
Goloka, also called Krishnaloka, the divine planet and supreme abode of Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, resembles a beautiful lotus flower with a thousand petals. The heart of this lotus is Krishna's abode. This supreme lotus-shaped abode is created by the will of Ananta, the plenary emanation of Krishna. The heart of this transcendental lotus is the sphere where Krishna resides.
This abode, a dwelling with the supreme and predominant aspect of the absolute, forms a hexagonal figure. Like a diamond, the supporting figure, the center of the luminous Krishna, shines as the transcendental source of all powers.
The Holy Name, composed of eighteen transcendental letters, manifests in a six-parted hexagon.
The heart of this eternal kingdom, Goloka, is the hexagonal abode of Krishna. The petals, the dwellings of the gopis who, being integral parts of the same essence, serve him with the greatest affection, shimmer exquisitely like so many walls.
The unfurled leaves of this lotus, like a garden, form the spiritual abode of Goddess Radhika, the dearest to Krishna's heart.
In Gokula, also called Krishnaloka, a transcendental place and one of the three principal regions of Gokula or Krishnaloka, the supreme planet where Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, resides, there exists a divine lotus with a thousand petals and millions of filaments. At its heart stands a majestic divine throne where Lord Krishna sits, whose form embodies the eternal radiance of transcendental ecstasy, playing his celestial flute that vibrates with spiritual sounds upon contact with his lotus lips. There, his lover gopis worship him with their personal subjective emanations and manifestations, as well as his external energy, which remains outside, embodying all temporal qualities.
The other two regions are: Dvaraka and Mathura.
