always serve Me with love and devotion, I give intelligence through which they can come to Me. Leave there any other form of religion and simply surrender to Me, I will free you from all the consequences of your faults. Have no fear. The first-rate man is he who finds refuge in Me in the most total abandonment and who, renouncing any form of material occupation, lives according to My teaching.
If I teach you today this very ancient science, the art of communing with the Absolute, it is because you are My friend and My devotee, and thus you can pierce it. sublime mystery. All beings are fragments of My Person. They are qualitatively One with Me, but they are quantitatively different. I want you to know this: never, in any place, under any circumstance, can we be separated, for I am present everywhere. Nothing is separate from My Person. The entire cosmic manifestation rests in Me, it is not separate from My Person. Before creation, I already existed. The whole universe, by a simple spark of My Person, I penetrate and support it. It is only through devotional service, and only thus, that I can be known as I am. And the being who, through such devotion becomes fully aware of My Person, can then enter My absolute kingdom.
My dear children, of all beings who have put on material bodies in this world, those to whom a human form has been granted should not toil day and night for the sole pleasure of the senses, accessible even dogs and pigs that feed on feces. Rather, they should practice penance and austerity to reach the divine level of devotional service. Thanks to this practice, the heart is purified and we then discover an eternal existence all of bliss, which transcends material happiness and lasts forever. He who knows the absolute of my Advent and of my actions will no longer have to be reborn in the material universe; leaving his body he will enter my eternal kingdom.
The path to liberation can only be accessed by serving spiritually very advanced beings, whether they are impersonalists or holy beings. Whether one wishes to merge into the existence of the Lord or live in His company, one must serve great souls. As for those for whom this path is of no interest, who seek the company of men in love with women and carnal pleasures, the path to hell is wide open to them. Great souls enjoy perfect balance, and do not differentiate between one living being and another. They live in the greatest serenity and immerse themselves completely in devotional service. Anger is foreign to them, and they work for the good of all; their conduct is not reprehensible in any way. Such personages are called great souls.
Men who wish to revive their awareness of God and to increase their love for Me do not like to do anything that is not related to My Person. They do not seek to mingle with all those who are only concerned with taking care of their body, eating, sleeping, bonding sexually and defending themselves. Although heads of families, they have no attachment to their home; they have no more for their wives, their children, their friends or their material possessions. At the same time, they do not remain indifferent to the performance of their duties, but are content to collect the money necessary to subsist.
