"Krishna says in Bhagavad-gita: 'I become the moon, and thereby supply the juice of life to all vegetables,' and in another place 'among the stars I am the moon.' So, directly or indirectly, Krishna is supplying all benediction to everything and everyone, just like the moon gives life to vegetables, without which nothing can exist, and also that moon keeps the great oceans from overcoming the land and destroying everything.
Similarly, Lord Caitanya's Sankirtana movement gives spiritual life to all living entities by dint of its transcendental radiation, and also it prevents the demonic class of men from overwhelming the pious class of men, and thus in every way it bestows all benediction, just like at night the moon illuminates everything."
(Srila Prabhupada letter, December 28, 1971)
