in ignorance of God. under the influence of the modes of influence of material nature.
Spiritual education helps to cultivate and develop the consciousness of God, and gives mankind the true light of spiritual existence. It allows us to teach that each of us is a spiritual soul and not the material body, and to teach us to abandon ourselves to God, to renew the bond which unites us to Him, and to serve Him with love and devotion. It gives the key to enter into the kingdom of God.
Logos 449
Truly, those who serve God with love and devotion in the consciousness of Krishna, the Supreme Eternal, even the smallest accomplished, consciously or not, confers on its author the highest blessings.
The least energy engaged in the service of the Lord is rewarded with immense spiritual benefit.
For example, picking flowers from a tree to offer them to Krishna, God, the Supreme Person also does a lot of good to the being confined in this tree body. When flowers and fruits are offered to the Lord, the tree that bore them is, indirectly, greatly benefiting.
If a tree receives so many bounties from the Lord, how many times do all those who worship God with love and affection?
We must all devote our worship to Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, if only to receive, without calculations or ulterior motives, the many benefits which flow from it.
In truth, all those who surrender to Krishna, and serve him with love, affection and devotion, are elevated to the spiritual and absolute level. The Lord can offer anyone anything, from salvation to the smallest material thing, or freed them from the miserable conditions of material existence, bringing them into his eternal and absolute kingdom, all of knowledge and felicity.
Logos 450
Let us love each other with unconditional love.
Krishna, God, the Supreme and Sovereign Person has given us this wonderful command: “You will love your neighbor as”, then let us apply it with joy.
