Matter is none other than the manifestation of the lower energy of God, the Supreme Person. Living beings are projected into the bosom of material nature, and develop, under different conditions, different bodies, which are the fruits of their past acts. Then begins to animate the universe and the activities of the manifold varieties of beings, and this from the very beginning of the creation. There is no question of progressive evolution of the species. All living species, men, animals, birds, plants, etc ..., are created together, at the same time as the universe, because, as many desires inhabited the beings conditioned during the previous destruction, as they are manifested immediately in different body shapes.

Moreover, beings do not intervene in these mechanisms. Simply, their state of consciousness at the end of their previous life, in the last creation, is manifested again, and all is done by the sole will of the Lord. Such is the inconceivable power of God, the Supreme Person. Finally, after having created them, the Lord has no contact with the many living species: He creates to satisfy the inclinations proper to the various beings, but he is never caught in the process of his creation.

Hell exists, it is a region composed of many infernal planets.

Teaching of the Supreme Lord

The Supreme Lord says, "His last hour comes, he sees the messengers of the lord of death coming towards him, their eyes angry. Invaded by fear, he urinates and defecates. Just as a criminal is arrested by the public force to suffer his sentence, the man who has committed himself criminally to the pleasure of the senses is seized by the Yamadutas (servants of the lord of death and judge of sinners) who tie their necks with solid cords and cover their subtle (ethereal) body to inflict severe punishment."

There are three kinds of activities in the material universe, governed respectively by virtue, passion, and ignorance. Since all beings are influenced by these three attributes of material nature, the fruits of their actions are also divided into three groups.

He who acts according to virtue shows himself pious and knows happiness.

He who acts under the influence of passion gets a mixture of happiness and suffering.

As for the one who acts under the influence of ignorance, he is always unhappy and lives like an animal.
