The Earth is NOT floating in Outer Space
By Pariksit Das
The Eart is NOT floating in Outer Space, but floating on water, according to the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam viz.: “and placed it on the water“, “and having placed it afloat on the water“. Thus, according to the description of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam the earth is floating on Water.
TEXT 46
maitreya uvāca
ity upasthīyamāno ’sau
munibhir brahma-vādibhiḥ
salile sva-khurākrānta
upādhattāvitāvanim
SYNONYMS
maitreyaḥ uvāca—the sage Maitreya said; iti—thus; upasthīyamānaḥ—being praised by; asau—Lord Boar; munibhiḥ—by the great sages; brahma-vādibhiḥ—by the transcendentalists; salile—on the water; sva-khura-ākrānte—touched by His own hooves; upādhatta—placed; avitā—the maintainer; avanim—the earth.
TRANSLATION
The sage Maitreya said: The Lord, being thus worshiped by all the great sages and transcendentalists, touched the earth with His hooves and placed it on the water.
PURPORT
The earth was placed on the water by His inconceivable potency. The Lord is all-powerful, and therefore He can sustain the huge planets either on the water or in the air, as He likes. The tiny human brain cannot conceive how these potencies of the Lord can act. Man can give some vague explanation of the laws by which such phenomena are made possible, but actually the tiny human brain is unable to conceive of the activities of the Lord, which are therefore called inconceivable. Yet the frog-philosophers still try to give some imaginary explanation. (SB 3.13.46)
TEXT 47
sa itthaṁ bhagavān urvīṁ
viṣvaksenaḥ prajāpatiḥ
rasāyā līlayonnītām
apsu nyasya yayau hariḥ
SYNONYMS
saḥ—He; ittham—in this manner; bhagavān—the Personality of Godhead; urvīm—the earth; viṣvaksenaḥ—another name of Viṣṇu; prajā-patiḥ—the Lord of the living entities; rasāyāḥ—from within the water; līlayā—very easily; unnītām—raised; apsu—on the water; nyasya—placing; yayau—returned to His own abode; hariḥ—the Personality of Godhead.
TRANSLATION
In this manner the Personality of Godhead, Lord Viṣṇu, the maintainer of all living entities, raised the earth from within the water, and having placed it afloat on the water, He returned to His own abode.
PURPORT
The Personality of Godhead Lord Viṣṇu descends by His will to the material planets in His innumerable incarnations for particular purposes, and again He goes back to His own abode. When He descends He is called an avatāra because avatāra means “one who descends.” Neither the Lord Himself nor His specific devotees who come to this earth are ordinary living entities like us. (SB 3.13.47)
“O Lord, as the peaks of great mountains become beautiful when decorated with clouds, Your transcendental body has become beautiful because of Your lifting the earth on the edge of Your tusks.” (SB 3.13.41)
Note: Praksit Prabhu, you need to read REFERENCE TO CONTEXT: the earth
is NOT always situated in Garbhodaka Ocean:
TEXT 1
brahmovāca
yatrodyataḥ kṣiti-taloddharaṇāya bibhrat
krauḍīṁ tanuṁ sakala-yajña-mayīm anantaḥ
antar-mahārṇava upāgatam ādi-daityaṁ
taṁ daṁṣṭrayādrim iva vajra-dharo dadāra
SYNONYMS
brahmā uvāca—Lord Brahmā said; yatra—at that time (when); udyataḥ—attempted; kṣiti-tala—the planet earth; uddharaṇāya—for the matter of lifting; bibhrat—assumed; krauḍīm—pastimes; tanum—form; sakala—total; yajña-mayīm—all-inclusive sacrifices; anantaḥ—the Unlimited; antar—within the universe; mahā-arṇave—the great Garbha Ocean; upāgatam—having arrived at; ādi—the first; daityam—demon; tam—him; daṁṣṭrayā—by the tusk; adrim—the flying mountains; iva—like; vajra-dharaḥ—the controller of the thunderbolts; dadāra—pierced.
TRANSLATION
Lord Brahmā said: When the unlimitedly powerful Lord assumed the form of a boar as a pastime, just to lift the planet earth, which was drowned in the great ocean of the universe called the Garbhodaka, the first demon [Hiraṇyākṣa] appeared, and the Lord pierced him with His tusk.
PURPORT
Since the beginning of creation, the demons and the demigods, or the Vaiṣṇavas, are always the two classes of living beings to dominate the planets of the universes. Lord Brahmā is the first demigod, and Hiraṇyākṣa is the first demon in this universe. Only under certain conditions do the planets float as weightless balls in the air, and as soon as these conditions are disturbed, the planets may fall down in the Garbhodaka Ocean, which covers half the universe. The other half is the spherical dome within which the innumerable planetary systems exist. The floating of the planets in the weightless air is due to the inner constitution of the globes, and the modernized drilling of the earth to exploit oil from within is a sort of disturbance by the modern demons and can result in a greatly harmful reaction to the floating condition of the earth. A similar disturbance was created formerly by the demons headed by Hiraṇyākṣa (the great exploiter of the gold rush), and the earth was detached from its weightless condition and fell down into the Garbhodaka Ocean. The Lord, as maintainer of the whole creation of the material world, therefore assumed the gigantic form of a boar with a proportionate snout and picked up the earth from within the water of Garbhodaka. Śrī Jayadeva Gosvāmī, the great Vaiṣṇava poet, sang as follows:
vasati daśana-śikhare dharaṇī tava lagnā
śaśini kalaṅka-kaleva nimagnā
keśava dhṛta-śūkara-rūpa
jaya jagadīśa hare
“O Keśava! O Supreme Lord who have assumed the form of a boar! O Lord! The planet earth rested on Your tusks, and it appeared like the moon engraved with spots.”
Such is the symptom of an incarnation of the Lord. The incarnation of the Lord is not the concocted idea of fanciful men who create an incarnation out of imagination. The incarnation of the Lord appears under certain extraordinary circumstances like the above-mentioned occasion, and the incarnation performs a task which is not even imaginable by the tiny brain of mankind. The modern creators of the many cheap incarnations may take note of the factual incarnation of God as the gigantic boar with a suitable snout to carry the planet earth.
When the Lord appeared to pick up the earth, the demon of the name Hiraṇyākṣa tried to create a disturbance in the methodical functions of the Lord, and therefore he was killed by being pierced by the Lord’s tusk. According to Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī, the demon Hiraṇyākṣa was killed by the hand of the Lord. Therefore his version is that after being killed by the hand of the Lord, the demon was pierced by the tusk. Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura confirms this version.

TEXT 30
khuraiḥ kṣuraprair darayaṁs tad āpa
utpāra-pāraṁ tri-parū rasāyām
dadarśa gāṁ tatra suṣupsur agre
yāṁ jīva-dhānīṁ svayam abhyadhatta
SYNONYMS
khuraiḥ—by the hooves; kṣurapraiḥ—compared to a sharp weapon; darayan—penetrating; tat—that; āpaḥ—water; utpāra-pāram—found the limitation of the unlimited; tri-paruḥ—the master of all sacrifices; rasāyām—within the water; dadarśa—found; gām—the earth; tatra—there; suṣupsuḥ—lying; agre—in the beginning; yām—whom; jīva-dhānīm—the resting place for all living entities; svayam—personally; abhyadhatta—uplifted.
TRANSLATION
Lord Boar penetrated the water with His hooves, which were like sharp arrows, and found the limits of the ocean, although it was unlimited. He saw the earth, the resting place for all living beings, lying as it was in the beginning of creation, and He personally lifted it.
PURPORT
The word rasāyām is sometimes interpreted to mean Rasātala, the lowest planetary system, but that is not applicable in this connection, according to Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura. The earth is seven times superior to the other planetary systems, namely Tala, Atala, Talātala, Vitala, Rasātala, Pātāla, etc. Therefore the earth cannot be situated in the Rasātala planetary system. It is described in the Viṣṇu-dharma:
pātāla-mūleśvara-bhoga-saṁhatau
vinyasya pādau pṛthivīṁ ca bibhrataḥ
yasyopamāno na babhūva so ’cyuto
mamāstu māṅgalya-vivṛddhaye hariḥ
Therefore the Lord found the earth on the bottom of the Garbhodaka Ocean, where the planets rest during the devastation at the end of Brahmā’s day.

yo māṁ rasāyā jagad-ādi-sūkaraḥ
kṛtvāgra-daṁṣṭre niragād udanvataḥ

SYNONYMS
pramathya—after killing; daityam—the demon; prativāraṇam—most formidable opponent; mṛdhe—in the fight; yaḥ—He who; mām—me (the earth); rasāyāḥ—fallen to the bottom of the universe; jagat—in this material world; ādi-sūkaraḥ—the original form of a boar; kṛtvā—keeping it; agra-daṁṣṭre—on the end of the tusk; niragāt—came out of the water; udanvataḥ—from the Garbhodaka Ocean; krīḍan—playing; iva—like; ibhaḥ—elephant; praṇatā asmi—I bow down; tam—to Him; vibhum—the Supreme Lord; iti—thus.
TRANSLATION
My Lord, as the original boar within this universe, You fought and killed the great demon Hiraṇyakṣa. Then You lifted me [the earth] from the Garbhodaka Ocean on the end of Your tusk, exactly as a sporting elephant plucks a lotus flower from the water. I bow down before You.
Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports of the Fifth Canto, Eighteenth Chapter of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled, “The prayers Offered to the Lord by the Residents of Jambūdvīpa.”

TEXT 10
mūrtiṁ naḥ puru-kṛpayā babhāra sattvaṁ
saṁśuddhaṁ sad-asad idaṁ vibhāti tatra
yal-līlāṁ mṛga-patir ādade ’navadyām
ādātuṁ svajana-manāṁsy udāra-vīryaḥ
SYNONYMS
mūrtim—different forms of the Supreme Personality of Godhead; naḥ—unto us; puru-kṛpayā—because of great mercy; babhāra—exhibited; sattvam—existence; saṁśuddham—completely transcendental; sat-asat idam—this material manifestation of cause and effect; vibhāti—shines; tatra—in whom; yat-līlām—the pastimes of whom; mṛga-patiḥ—the master of all living beings, who is exactly like a lion (the master of all other animals); ādade—taught; anavadyām—without material contamination; ādātum—to conquer; sva-jana-manāṁsi—the minds of His devotees; udāra-vīryaḥ—who is most liberal and powerful.
TRANSLATION
This manifestation of subtle and gross matter exists within the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Out of causeless mercy toward His devotees, He exhibits various forms, which are all transcendental. The Supreme Lord is most liberal, and He possesses all mystic power. To conquer the minds of His devotees and give pleasure to their hearts, He appears in different incarnations and manifests many pastimes.
PURPORT
Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī has translated this verse as follows. “The Supreme Personality of Godhead is the cause of all causes. It is by His will that gross and subtle ingredients interact. He appears in various incarnations just to please the hearts of His pure devotees.” For example, the Supreme Lord appeared in the transcendental incarnation of Lord Varāha (the boar) just to please His devotees by lifting the planet earth from the Garbhodaka Ocean.

Dear Learned Readers,
Pariksat das and co. headed by the name of Mayesvara dasa NON-MOVING ( STATIONARY ) FLAT EARTH PROPONENT take information PARTIALLY that best suit to make a point of their Agenda, and try to propagate it massively to the Ignorant and Innocent People who lack and limit the knowledge of knowing the FACTS from the revealed Scriptures.
To make my point clear, for example, let us read from S.B.3.13.46 which states ;
PURPORT
The earth was placed on the water by His inconceivable potency. The Lord is all-powerful, and therefore He can sustain the huge planets either on the water or in the air, as He likes. The tiny human brain cannot conceive how these potencies of the Lord can act. Man can give some vague explanation of the laws by which such phenomena are made possible, but actually the tiny human brain is unable to conceive of the activities of the Lord, which are therefore called inconceivable. Yet the frog-philosophers still try to give some imaginary explanation. (SB 3.13.46)
I find the following statement very significant in the Purport which reads ;
” The Lord is all-powerful, and therefore He can sustain the huge planets either on the water or in the air, as He likes.”
As we know and understand from the Sastras that the WATER comes from the AIR, therefore, all the Planets i.e. in a weightless ball, are FLOATING in this Universe.
Since, we the conditioned Jivas are encaged in a Particular Place of the EARTH in this Universe, therefore, we can not penetrate in an Outer Space of the Universe.
Thus, the statement from Pariksit Das :
” The Eart is NOT floating in Outer Space, but floating on water, according to the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam viz.: “ and placed it on the water“, “and having placed it afloat on the water“. Thus, according to the description of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam the earth is floating on Water.”
IMHO. is quite clearly indicative of his intention and purpose of misleading when he says ;
” The Earth is NOT floating in Outer Space “.
Whereas we know from the Sastras that the all the Planets in this Universe have their own respective ORBITS upon which they rotate and float as well.
OM TAT SAT.
Hare Krishna. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Pariksit Das: Another Sanskrit name for the Earth is acala (not moving).
Mahesh: No! That is NOT the Sanskrit name of Earth.
Cala and acala are describing the POSITION:
MOVING is called CALA and NOT MOVING is called “a”cala. There is NO SANSKRIT name of Earth as acala.
cala—both of them are MOVING
acala—WITHOUT movement.
TEXT 166
‘brahmānanda’ nāma tumi-gaura-brahma ‘cala’
śyama-varṇa jagannātha vasiyāchena ‘acala’
SYNONYMS
brahmānanda—Brahmānanda; nāma tumi—your name; gaura-brahma—the Brahman of the name Gaura; cala—both of them are moving; śyāma-varṇa—of blackish hue; jagannātha—Lord Jagannātha; vasiyāchena—is sitting; acala—without movement.
TRANSLATION
“Both Brahmānanda and Gaurahari are moving, whereas the blackish Lord Jagannātha is sitting tight and immobile.”
PURPORT
Brahmānanda Bhāratī wanted to prove that there is no difference between the Supreme Lord and the jīva, while Caitanya Mahāprabhu wanted to prove that He and Brahmānanda Bhāratī were jīvas and that although the jīvas are Brahman, they are many, but the Supreme Lord, the Supreme Brahman, is one. On the other hand, Brahmānanda Bhāratī also wanted to prove that Jagannātha and Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu are one, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, but that to fulfill His mission Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu appeared to be moving whereas Lord Jagannātha appeared to be inert. Thus this jolly argument was going on. Finally, Brahmānanda Bhāratī referred the whole matter to Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya for a final decision.

Mahesh: it is NOT good to BLUFF devotees by MANIPULATING to make beLIEve(in other words LIE) that the Earth is stationary to fit in with your personal agenda: “The great Earth circle is held in it’s immovable place by Ananta-sesha”. IMMOVABLE?????
This business about “Sanskrit name for Earth is acala (not moving)” is a self-serving agenda.
Sanskrit NAME of EARTH is NOT MOVING???? Does it even make SENSE–at all ????? Just see!
Come on Pariksit Prabhu, let us not pretend. What Mayesvara Das and your intention is to SOMEHOW fit in the earth as NOT MOVING on Ananta-sesha’s head. THAT is YOUR ploy. It is MENTAL SPECULATION.
Best to take Srila Prabhupada’s words instead:

Eric Dubay is just another shill, financed and controlled by Freemasonry. This is NOT about Flat Earth vs NASA! This is about CONTROLLED OPPOSITION. BOTH entities (FE and NASA) are controlled by Freemasons. Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur mentioned many times that he would always research the messenger! and not so much the message. The Freemason Illuminati want YOU to waste your time in these internet “shill wars” as they control BOTH SIDES. Dubay’s site has slick videos, T shirts, stickers and other merch! This is just a Freemason marketing campaign to recruit ‘dupes and halfwits’
don’t waste your time with this nonsense!
Both these rascal entities are pushing CO2 Global Warming Myth! All “weather channels” (all owned by Rothschilds) are barred from mentioning ‘GEOENGINEERING!’ You will NEVER hear this word mentioned on mainstream media. THIS IS MASS BRAINWASHING! But this is what they are doing.
Big floods now in Australia (after the fires!)…..Now massive fish kills in the rivers (caused by ash, chemtrail runoff and fire retardant chemicals! Illuminati Freemason Darwinist (member of The Royal Society) shills like David Attenborough pounding this CO2 Global Warming Myth on the media in UK.
US politicians using these catastrophic fires in Australia for political leverage for their own election point-scoring! GEOENGINEERING CATASTROPHIC FIRES AND FLOODS CAUSED BY HAARP FROM COVERT US BASES AROUND AUSTRALIA! This is how Freemasonic Zionists operate! They are pedophiles and criminal psychpaths! BOTH THE LEFT AND THE RIGHT ARE PUSHING THIS NWO AGENDA! They are ‘deniers’ of geoengineering BOTH SIDES ARE JUST “PLAYING” GOOD COP/BAD COP. This is ALL just psychological warfare! This Prince Harry “crisis” is all a bullshit diversionary tactic as the “Royal Family” (including pedophile Randy Andy!) are a pack of parasitical, Zionist in-breds and liars. All these “crisis” events are staged by the Illuminati AS A DISTRACTION to fool the dumb populace!
The current ”financial crisis” is not a crisis for Rothschilds, Warburgs JP Morgan or any of the elites!…..IT IS A WINDFALL! as THEY CREATED IT! and control the politicians, the stock-market, banks and financial infrastructure. “CO2 Global Warming Myth” is created by them also (while at the same time employing GEOENGINEERING of weather, chem-trail chemical ”seeding”, fires, electrical storms, hurricanes, cyclones, flooding, earthquakes, sea level rise and tidal waves.
This Flat Earth vs Round Earth “PSY-OP” (in which they control both sides of “the debate”) is just to keep the dumb populace distracted (while in Australia, they flood your houses, or burn them down) SO THAT ALL THE DUMB PLEBS IN EUROPE AND USA WILL “DEMAND” AGENGA 21 AND NWO. This is the REAL meaning of “Action on Climate Change!” problem/reaction/solution (thesis/anti-thesis/synthisis).
HariBol,

Not very convincing to quote Prabhupada with some flat earth scammer.
The earth is normally a GLOBE and only after being submerged in the water it was lifted out. Normally the earth is a Planet floating in space, so this was a special case…:
“Bhārata-varṣa: This part of the world is also one of the nine varṣas of the Jambūdvīpa, or earthly planet. Each planet is also sometimes called a dvīpa because of its being an island in the fathomless outer space. Each planet is factually an island in the airy ocean of outer space. Jambūdvīpa is only one of such countless islands in this airy ocean of space. A description of Bhārata-varṣa is given in the Mahābhārata (Bhīṣma Parva, Chapters 9-10).”

Krishna in His incarnation as Lord Varaha lifted the earth (Bhumi) out of the ocean and they had a son – the Mars planet. Earth planet is in space or the milk ocean at the moment. Previously it was in the ocean during fish and tortoise incarnations. It’s evolution of consciousness and matter. Don’t waste time arguing with devotees, have compassion for those with less understanding and encourage chanting of the holy names, its the only thing that purifies the intelligence.
