The Lord ends by saying: You see, dear friend, you are seeking to establish solid, deep and lasting relationships with this or that, in this material world, here in this case, your so-called husband, but all this is in vain, for as long as you neglect to cultivate your constitutional relationship, original and eternal, with Me, Krishna, God, Supreme Person, you will be condemned to be reborn and to die endlessly, and thereby to establish temporary links with so-called intimate ones, on the basis of illusory relationships founded on the material body, and as ephemeral as it.
Thus the two swans live together in the heart of a living being, whatever the shape of the body that the distinct soul has put on. When the first instructs the second, the latter then reintegrates its original, natural and eternal condition. In other words, he regains his original Krishna consciousness, which he had lost because of the attraction he felt for matter.
The human being suffers because he has forgotten God, and no longer knows who he is.
The living being suffers because he does not know the existence of the hidden treasure of his Father, Krishna, God, the Supreme person. This hidden treasure is the love for God that all the Vedic scriptures [of the Vedas, the original holy scriptures also called “The true gospel”] invite the conditioned soul to discover.
The conditioned soul is unaware that it is the daughter of the richest Being, God. So the true gospel is passed on to him to help him rediscover his Father and his patrimony, love for God.
It is thanks to the devotional service carried out in full Krishna consciousness, that we will be able to find this treasure. Such is the hidden fortune which never dries up, so that by acquiring it, one becomes rich forever.
Whoever is poor in devotion and in Krishna consciousness will always lack material gains, sometimes suffering bites of poisonous creatures, sometimes suffering failure, sometimes still adhering to the doctrine of monism [atheistic theory according to which the distinct being would be in all the equal of God, and thus would be only One with Him] by losing his identity or being devoured by a huge serpent, the illusion
Only by renouncing all this to settle firmly in the consciousness of God, in the service of love and devotion offered to the Lord, will you know the true perfection of existence. In truth, the practice of devotional service certainly allows one to approach the Lord.
The Lord says moreover on this subject: No one can, by philosophical speculation, yoga or austerity, Give Me as much pleasure as by practicing devotional service.
The Lord adds: It is only through devotional service, and only thus, that one can know Me as I am. And the being who, through such devotion becomes fully aware of My Person, can then enter My absolute kingdom.
