Because of our material contamination, we acquire a material body. Conversely, if we lead a spiritual life, we develop a spiritual body. If we persist in our spiritual commitment, our body will act spiritually, although it is material, and if we constantly remain Krishna-aware, God-aware, we will spiritualize in the same way. We will act spiritually, free from material demands.

Acquire the consciousness of God, associate with holy beings, and so will we. Let us surrender to Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, and serve him with love and devotion, then our life will be pure. Such is the perfection of existence.

Only voluntary austerity is useful, that which leads to the purification of the body and of existence.

If we do not voluntarily endure the austerities and penance, we will be obliged to endure them against our will anyway. Because we accept austerities, Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, gives us pleasurable things. So we are not losers. When we are Krishnaised, we get more comfort than we had. It is a real fact. On the other hand, if we do not accept to follow a spiritual discipline, nature will make us endure many calamities.

The Lord said: The energy which constitutes the three attributes of material nature; virtue, passion, ignorance, this divine energy which is Mine, is extremely difficult to overcome. But whoever abandons himself to Me easily crosses its limits.

Material energy imposes enormous difficulties on living beings, but as soon as one abandons himself to God, these difficulties vanish. Man is unaware that he is constantly under the influence of material energy, which makes him believe what he will never have. He is therefore plunged into illusion. So when living beings forget Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, they live in the material world and therefore have to suffer because of their sinful acts and for their forgetting of God.

When we say Krishna, it means his Name, its Form, its Entertainment, its energies, everything. It is enough to pronounce the Holy Name of God, Krishna, so that our life is purified and all our sins erased.
