The Pure Spiritual Science

Krishna says: "After years without many delights on the planets where those who have practiced good live, the one who has failed on the path of yoga is reborn within a rich and noble family, or high virtue, or in a family of spiritualists. In truth, it is rare, here below, to obtain such a birth."

Whoever has not been able to achieve complete success in the practice of yoga does not have to undergo transmigration or reincarnation again through each living species, but returns from the outset in an evolved form. He will therefore be assigned a human body, not that of an animal. God explains that through his actions, the spiritual being can be reborn directly in the form of his choice. The Lord clearly teaches that all species exist simultaneously, and that everyone can choose to take on a particular form, at their convenience. He who desires it can even reach the kingdom of God.

Krishna, God says, "I am the origin of all things."

Krishna, God, the Supreme Person is life itself. But matter is produced by life, and it is thanks to life that it can grow. The body of matter grows from the spiritual soul, and covers it. Life comes from the supreme life, from God. The beings incarnated in animal bodies can only rise, whereas the beings incarnated in human bodies can be reincarnated either in a superior form, or in a lower form. It is the nature of the desires of being which determines the body that will be attributed to it. The lower species know only animal desire, but the human being is animated by hundreds and thousands of desires, some of which are of human nature and others of animal nature. The law of nature is thus conceived of as inferior species rising from animal forms to the superior human form. But he who, having obtained the human form, does not cultivate the consciousness of Krishna or consciousness of God and plunges into atheism, is likely to be reborn in an animal body. True science is taught by Krishna, God, the Supreme Person. The body of a being is determined by what was the object of his passion and veneration in his past life. However, it is by worshiping God that man can put an end to the cycle of death and subsequent rebirth.

God teaches: "For one who reaches this supreme dwelling, mine, there is no return in this material world where birth and death reign."

The ultimate perfection of human life is access to the spiritual world. In truth, the soul already has a spiritual body, but the material body comes to cover the latter. Our true body is therefore spiritual, and all the bodies we put on successively oppose our real nature, which is to be the servants and servants of Krishna. As long as we do not assume this role, we remain enslaved to matter, and according to the rigorous laws
