Men do not know that beyond the laws of nature lies the Supreme Lord, the sovereign master, and that under his order operates the laws of nature. Therefore, whenever there is peace in the world, we must know that it is due to the goodwill of the Lord. And likewise, when society experiences some commotion, it should also be seen as the supreme will of the Lord. Not a blade of grass moves outside the will of the Lord. Whenever there is a transgression of the order established by the Lord, conflicts and wars arise between men and between nations. The surest way to reach peace therefore lies in the use of all things according to the order established by the Lord. This divine law enjoins us not to act, not to eat, not to sacrifice and to do charity only for the greater satisfaction of the Lord. No one should do anything against their will. The value of an action is judged by the circumspection one applies to it, so one must learn to distinguish the acts pleasing to the Lord from those which cause his displeasure. The criteria for action therefore lie in the satisfaction or dissatisfaction with the Lord. No room for whim; the Lord's pleasure alone should dictate our conduct. We must not take the life of anyone, human, animal or plant, and obey God, in order to be in communion with Him. The action accomplished in communion with the Supreme Lord is the art of acting perfectly. This is why we have to surrender ourselves to Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, because we cannot be free or independent from Him. We cannot go beyond the limits imposed by the laws of God, it is impossible.

If we surrender ourselves to Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, and serve him with love and devotion while doing his only will, then we will be truly happy, for the Lord is the source of true happiness, and the reservoir of blessings.

Sometimes we are surprised to learn that great sages abandoned to the Lord go to the forest to practice or devote themselves to devotional service. engage in meditation: how can they live like this, in the middle of the forest, without anyone watching over them?

In truth, such beings enjoy the benevolent protection of God, the Supreme Person. Thus, abandonment comes down to accepting or firmly believing that God protects the soul that has surrendered to Him, no matter where it is; she never remains alone or unprotected. Indeed, whoever serves the Lord with devotion never remains unprotected, wherever in this universe he may be. Whatever the dangers in this material world from living beings or elements of material, even behavioral nature that will cause the incarnate being to fall from the spiritual to the material, no one
