God teaches us to this effect: It is the thoughts and memories of a being at the moment of leaving the body that determine its future condition.

Actions must be offered as sacrifices to the Supreme Being, lest they chain their perpetrators to the material world. Therefore, fulfill your duty to please Him, and you will forever be freed from the chains of matter.

Whatever you do, whatever you eat, whatever you sacrifice or spend, whatever austerity you practice, let it be for the sake of offering it to Me. Thus you will free yourself from the consequences of your actions, all of them, virtuous or sinful. By this principle of renunciation, you will be freed and will come to Me.

How to enter the spiritual world, and in what way?

The Kingdom of God is a reality.

The Lord says: My sovereign abode is a spiritual and absolute kingdom from which there is no return to this material world. Whoever attains supreme perfection, engaged in serving Me personally with devotion in this eternal abode, attains the highest perfection of human life and need never return to this world of suffering.

Truly, no one can enter the Kingdom of God unless they have attained the state of holiness.

This is why God says: Be holy as I am holy.

One attains the state of holiness by practicing austerity, that is, not having illicit sexual relations outside of marriage, not eating meat, fish, and eggs, not consuming drugs and stimulants such as alcohol, coffee, tea, cigarettes, and not gambling.

The state of perfect purity is achieved by renewing the bond of love that unites us to Krishna, by loving Him, obeying Him, doing His will, linking our desires and interests to His, surrendering ourselves to Him, and serving Him with love and devotion.

The Lord says to this effect: Only through devotional service, and thus alone, can one know Me as I am. And the being who, through such devotion, becomes fully aware of Me, can then enter My absolute kingdom.

Only by serving Me with undivided love and devotion can one know Me as I am and, likewise, truly see Me. Thus, and thus alone, can one penetrate the mystery of My Person.

Knowing Krishna, God, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, as He truly is, in His personal, primordial, original, infinite, and absolute form, allows one to simultaneously know the absolute truth. This is why Krishna, God, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is also called the “Absolute Truth.”
