Unlike ordinary mortals, suffering, pain and other misfortunes cannot in this material world be modified, lessened or diminished, for they are the fruit of our own past sinful acts. We must imperatively erase them by tolerant and accepting the pain felt, and by abandoning ourselves to God, otherwise they will remain, and we will find them in our next lives.

Krishna, God, the Supreme Person is the ultimate purpose of existence, and the golden key to the liberation of this suffering material world. The Lord asks us to renew the bond that unites us to Him, to abandon ourselves to Him, to love Him, to obey Him, to do His will alone, to unite our desires and interests with His, and to serve Him with love and devotion, then we will see all our suffering disappear permanently.

By engaging in the service of love and devotion that we offer to Lord Krishna, we free ourselves from all karma, good or bad. We finally understand that all our suffering is due only to our previous karma. We know that the condition of both the body and the soul depends on Krishna.

In reality, the devotee of God takes care of his body by duty, so that he can better serve the Lord. Whatever his situation, the devotee keeps a spiritual vision and uses his body only for spiritual purposes. This is true medicine, medicine that ends all diseases.

Each act generates an effect of itself, thus strengthens the material chain that keeps its author ever more prisoner of matter, and to suffer accordingly.

This chain of actions and the resulting consequences can only be broken when we put ourselves at the service of God and act for Him.

The Lord advises: “Surrender yourself totally to Me, and I will protect you from all perils. You will never again experience the problems of birth and death. By My grace, you will know absolute peace, and you will reach My eternal and supreme abode. I grant faith and refuge to anyone who surrenders to Me and vows to serve Me forever, for this is My nature.

Only by devotional service, and only in this way, can one know Me as I am. And the being who by such devotion becomes fully aware of My Person can then enter My absolute kingdom.

Only by serving Me with undivided love and devotion can one know Me as I am, and truly see Me. In this way, and only in this way, will the mystery of My Person be revealed. You can proclaim it forcefully, never will My devotee perish.”
