material to breathe, to bet, to love and fear. The body is essentially a vehicle for the core; thanks to him, she will meet countless material desires. Gita explains that the living entity within the body is like a machine composed of material energy. The soul falsely identifies with the body, bringing with it its different conceptions of life from one body to another as the air carries various odors. Just as a car can not move without a driver, the material body can not function without the presence of the soul.

The real evolution is not located at the physical body, but in consciousness.

For example ; a spiritual entity that is born in a lower species, plant or animal, will evolve gradually to the higher species, human or celestial. God created all species, upper and lower at the same time, and all have existed from the beginning, simultaneously.

In between these two energies, life and matter, life or mind is the superior energy, original. As for the material, the less energy, it comes from life. The spirit is independent, while the material depends on him.

So these are the desires of beings that determine the body they should take?

Exactly. God, because He is omniscient, knows that some living things will rebel against His will and devote himself to sinful acts. He also knows the various desires that they will develop in contact with the three gunas, material influences. So did He created since the dawn of time the various life forms that used to house the conditioned souls, according to their desires.

The material influences are named (virtue), (passion) and (ignorance). All the different material objects of the world are made ??from these three gunas, as the three primary colors (blue, red and yellow) are used to produce thousands of shades and varied tones. As for the orchestration of this distribution is vested in nature, which is in charge with amazing dexterity. "All activities are performed by the gunas." Also the material influences they are reflected in the variety of living species - plants and trees, fish, mammals, humans, and other devas, or 8.4 million different life forms.

The Supreme Lord Himself, expands Himself to appear as the Supreme Soul, Paramatma in everyone's heart. Though He is in the material body and that He is the original source, it is not Himself equipment. For Him there is no distinction between matter and mind, as all energies are from Him. It may therefore, in his own way, transform matter into spirit and spirit into matter.

The word living can it be defined as "endowed with consciousness" and nonliving as "devoid of consciousness"?
