So Krsna comes... He does not come like us. We are under the control of the material nature, but Krsna is not under the control of material nature. That is to be understood. Therefore here it is said that jahau sva-tanva. Sva means "own," and tanva, tanu, tanu means "this body." We have got distinction, "I am the soul, but my this body is material." This distinction we have got because we are conditioned soul. Actually, I am not this body. I am soul. But I have become conditioned by this material body. And in case of Krsna, He is not conditioned by this material body. Therefore it is said, sva-tanva: "by His own original, spiritual body." This is the distinction you must understand.By H.D.G. Srila Prabhupada
