Logos 173
A devotee of the Sovereign Lord seriously practicing the service of love and of devotion dedicated to the Divine Person is shown to be equal towards all living beings, heavenly beings, human beings, animals and plants.
There are different living species, but the servant of God (the servant of God) do not consider the carnal envelope; he sees the soul that dwells inside the body. Each of these souls being a tiny part of God, he sees no distinction between them. This is the vision of a holy being who possesses knowledge. The saint, or the sage, does not differentiate between a learned preacher, a dog, an elephant or a cow, for he knows that the body is only an outer shell and that the soul is actually a spiritual particle. issue of the Supreme Lord.
The holy being does not conceive of hostility towards any being, but he does not for all that bind himself with anyone, because even if he does not consider anyone as his enemy, he does not exchange of report only with those who practice devotional service. Whatever he earns, whatever he eats and whatever he does, he offers it to the Sovereign Lord, for his satisfaction. He must always be thoughtful, serene, benevolent, compassionate and aware of his true self.
Logos 174
These three truths must dictate our conduct, at all times and in all places:
1) All in the universe material and the spiritual world belongs to the Supreme Eternal.
2) His satisfaction is the ultimate criterion of all action; we must do his will alone, offer him all our deeds and unite our interest with his.
3) He is the best friend of all beings.
Not only should we understand these three truths and apply them, but we must also spread the awareness of God. As soon as one turns seriously to the service of love and devotion offered to the Lord, the delusional tendency to want to dominate material nature naturally disappears. Rather than trying in vain to reign supreme over material energy, let us devote ourselves to the consciousness of God; therein lies the true mastery of consciousness. However, the practice of union with God requires mastery of the senses.
