In truth, the real activity of the sense organs, whether it be the mind, the eye, the tongue, the nose, the ear and the skin for touch, or any other organ of perception and action, is intended to be put to the exclusive service of God, in order to serve Him fully, and the resulting fruit is to be offered to the Lord and to Him alone.
Unless he uses his senses in this way, the conditioned soul cannot even think of escaping the terrible spiral of material existence, and will have to suffer because of his selfishness and greed.
Without Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, the living being; celestial beings, human beings, animals and plants, are nothing and can do nothing.
They cannot see, hear, smell, feel or act without the active principle which is none other than God Himself.
God, the Supreme Eternal, resides in the heart of all bodies of matter, celestial, human, animal and vegetable, and keeps all these bodies of inert matter active. That is why all these moving and still bodies are temples of God. He is the Supreme Teacher, the Supreme Guide, the Supreme Adviser, and the witness of all our actions.
The Lord alone directs the senses. Therefore, unless we are empowered by His energy, our senses cannot act, for it is God Himself who activates the mind and the senses. In other words, God alone sees, He alone acts, He alone hears, for He is the active principle and the Supreme Master.
In truth, no one should destroy any of these bodies, for that is to reach the individual spirit soul that each of us is, and God, the Supreme Soul.
The bodies have five organs of perception, five organs of action and the mind, but these are really only inert matter. Because it is only a mass of matter, the brain has no power to act on its own. It can only function when it is supplied with the energy of the Supreme Lord.
Krishna, God, the Supreme Person activates and enlivens the material body, the senses, the vital breath, the heart, and makes them come alive. Without the Lord, the living being is nothing and can do nothing. He cannot see, hear, smell, feel, taste or act without the active principle, God.
By entering the body of every living being in the form of the Supreme Soul, God animates the material body, the senses, the airs of life and the mental activities, and thus the ethereal and gross organs begin their functions.
Consciousness is the energy of the soul, and it is spread throughout the body by the red blood cells that make up the blood that circulates in it.
The soul floats, carried by the five kinds of air (prana, apana, vyana, samana and udana). Located in the heart, it distributes its energy, the consciousness, to the whole body. Once purified from the contamination of these five kinds of material air, it reveals its spiritual power.
