Srimad Bhagavat Gita commentary chapter 15 verse 6

 Chapter 15 verse 6 

“Neither the sun nor the moon, nor fire can illumine that Supreme Abode of Mine. Having gone There, one does not return to this material world again.” 

What does that eternal abode look like? Anything which is not an experiential reality for us has to be just imagined. Bhagwan here describes his supreme eternal abode from the realm of what we are aware of. The material realm consisting of the sun, moon and the stars is used to compare the luminescence of the supreme abode and its illumination is not derived from any material entity. The supreme abode’s energy, light and beauty is permanent and is derived from the infinite consciousness of Bhagwan. When an exalted jivatma reaches the portal of paramatma, there is no return back to the earth or any other material realm for them, they become one with the Supreme.
