The whole soul in submission to God, who constantly seeks the protection of the Lord while fulfilling the duties entrusted to him, has no fear of being a victim of material defilement.
Logos 141
It is written: “O Lord, material sufferings have no real existence for the soul. However, as long as the embodied and conditioned soul believes that the body is destined for pleasure and identifies with it, it cannot come out of the labyrinth that these sufferings form, being influenced by your external energy”.

In the spiritual world, illuminated on all sides by the radiance coming from the body of the Lord, there is no change of age. Indeed, the phenomenon of creation does not exist on the spiritual planets, and time does not exist there either. The rays which
