Who can know the Supreme Personality of Godhead?

sa veda dhātuḥ padavīṁ parasya
duranta-vīryasya rathāṅga-pāṇeḥ
yo ’māyayā santatayānuvṛttyā
bhajeta tat-pāda-saroja-gandham

Only those who render unreserved, uninterrupted, favorable service unto the lotus feet of Lord Kṛṣṇa, who carries the wheel of the chariot in His hand, can know the creator of the universe in His full glory, power and transcendence.

Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 1.3.38

How To Please Lord Śiva?

yaḥ paraṁ raṁhasaḥ sākṣāt
tri-guṇāj jīva-saṁjñitāt
bhagavantaṁ vāsudevaṁ
prapannaḥ sa priyo hi me

Lord Śiva continued: Any person who is surrendered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, the controller of everything — material nature as well as the living entity — is actually very dear to me.

How Many Species Are There In The Universe?

As stated in the Viṣṇu Purāṇa:

jala-jā nava-lakṣāṇi sthāvarā lakṣa-viṁśati
kṛmayo rudra-saṅkhyakāḥ pakṣiṇāṁ daśa-lakṣaṇam
triṁśal-lakṣāṇi paśavaḥ catur-lakṣāṇi mānuṣāḥ

“There are
1) Species living in the water : 900,000
2) Nonmoving living entities (sthāvara) such as trees and plants : 2,000,000
3) Species of insects and reptiles : 1,100,000
4) Species of birds : 1,000,000
5) quadrupeds : 3,000,000
6) Human species : 400,000.

Ekādaśī Reminder🙏🏻

26/02/2022

SB 8.24.6
uccāvaceṣu bhūteṣu
caran vāyur iveśvaraḥ
noccāvacatvaṁ bhajate
nirguṇatvād dhiyo guṇaiḥ

Like the air passing through different types of atmosphere, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, although appearing sometimes as a human being and sometimes as a lower animal, is always transcendental. Because He is above the material modes of nature, He is unaffected by higher and lower forms.

Bṛhad-mṛdaṅga Vānī 🙌

Everything, everywhere, is performed in terms of three principles, jñāna-bala-kriyā —

1. Jñāna- knowledge
2. Bala -strength
3. Kriya - Activity or endeavour

In every field, if there is not full knowledge, full strength and full activity, an endeavour is never successful. Therefore, if one wants success in everything, one must be backed by these three principles. However, without the sanction of the Supreme Lord they are futile.

Also, in the Vedas (Śvetāśvatara Upaniṣad 6.8) there is this statement about the Supreme Personality of Godhead:
The Supreme Personality of Godhead does not need to do anything personally, for He has such potencies that anything He wants done will be done perfectly well through the control of material nature (svābhāvikī jñāna-bala-kriyā ca).
