material. Their ambitions and desires, instead of binding them to matter, become for them a source of liberation”.

The Lord adds: “It is I who grant beings all blessings and even liberation from this world of matter. It is I alone who can put an end to material existence to remind Me of the conditioned soul, back to its original home”.

The key to liberation.

To be free from material slavery, it suffices to surrender to God, and to make a firm resolution to serve him with love and devotion for eternity. The key to liberation is love for Krishna, God, the Supreme Person.

The Lord says: “Breaking his attachments, the spiritualist does not act with his body, his mind, his intelligence and his very senses, that for a single purpose, to purify itself. Unlike one who, without union with the Divine, covets the fruits of his labor and thus gets bogged down in matter, the soul established in devotion finds, by offering Me the results of all his acts, a peace without mixture”.

Any act performed in order to satisfy the spiritual senses of Krishna purifies its author of all material contamination, whether it is from the body, the mind, the intelligence or even the senses. For our actions to be pure, and to have no material consequences, it is enough to act in the consciousness of Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, and to offer all our actions to the Lord.

He who puts his words and his body, his mind and his intelligence at the service of the Lord, in the consciousness of God, is perfectly liberated in this world, even if his acts seem material.

Freed from the false ego [from identification with his body, and from the desire to want to dominate matter], he does not identify with his body, any more than he believes in its possessor. He knows perfectly well that he and his body belong to Krishna. Using in the service of Krishna all that he possesses [thoughts, words, actions, body, mind, intelligence, life, goods, etc.], he immediately unites with Him. Such is the perfection of the consciousness of Krishna, God, the Supreme Person.

In truth, Krishna consciousness, cultivated in contact with pure holy beings, is the force which delivers from the snares of matter.

He who clings to Krishna and acts only to please Him is released. He does not think of enjoying the fruit of his actions. Caring about the results of the action proves that one remains in the grip of duality, ignoring the Absolute Truth, Krishna, God, the Supreme Person. Duality has no place in the consciousness of God.

All that exists is the product of the energy of Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, the Absolute Truth, who is in every way perfect. And any act related to Krishna is also of an absolute nature, purely spiritual, it does not entail any consequences of a material
