The atmosphere produces its own light there, no need for the sun, the moon, fire, electric force. Whoever reaches this kingdom never comes back to this world in a material body. All the beings who live there surrender themselves with submission to the loving service of the Lord.
The inhabitants of Vaikuṇṭha, the spiritual world, have a shiny black complexion, much more fascinating and attractive than the dull white or black skin, of the material universe. Their bodies of a spiritual nature have no equivalent in this world. The radiant beauty of a cloud illuminated by lightning only offers a glimpse of their seduction. They usually wear yellow clothes, their delicate bodies have attractive shapes, and their eyes are like lotus petals. Like Viṣṇu, the Lord, the beings who inhabit Vaikuṇṭha have four arms and they carry a conch, a wheel, a mace and a lotus. Their chest, very large, and nicely adorned with necklaces made of a metal reminiscent of diamonds and enhanced with jewels such as one will never be able to find in the material world. The residents of Vaikuṇṭha are rich in power and perpetual radiance. Some are of a complexion reminiscent of red coral, cat and lotus eyes; each of them wear all gemstone ear ornaments. On their heads are placed flower tiaras in the form of garlands.
On the Vaikuṇṭha also evolve many aircraft, which are not accompanied by any deafening noise. Our material planes do not offer any security, they can fall and be shattered at any time since the material is imperfect in all respects. Rather, the aircraft that fly the spiritual sky are themselves spiritual in nature and shine with transcendent brilliance. On board, instead of businessmen, politicians, planning commissions or even goods or mail bags, all of which is completely unknown there, the citizens of Vaikuṇṭha, with their fairy-like companions of fascinating beauty, take pleasure to leisure trips, for which these devices are exclusively designed. Therefore these aircraft filled with residents of Vaikuṇṭha, male and female, enhance the beauty of the spiritual sky. We cannot even imagine its grace. At most one could compare it to that of the clouds in the sky crossed by the silvery ramifications of lightning. The skies of Vaikuṇṭhaloka are always so decorated.
The opulence of God's inner power eternally shines in all its fullness in this kingdom of Vaikuṇṭha, where the goddesses of fortune have an ever-growing attachment to the service of the Supreme Lord. The presence of these goddesses of fortune and their companions always arouses a joyous atmosphere of transcendent celebration. Continuously singing the glories of the Lord, they never know silence. There is an unlimited number of Vaikuṇṭha planets in the spiritual world, which cover an area three times the size of the material cosmos. So the poor materialist is preoccupied with the political organization of a planet which is nothing but dust in the immensity of God's creation. Without even considering our planet, the entire cosmos with its countless planets scattered across galaxies, is like a mustard seed in a bag full of such seeds. Alas, the materialist is lost in a thousand projects to live in comfort here below and thus wastes his human energy, yet so precious, for an illusory well- being which will only lead to frustration.
