The human form allows the soul embodied on earth to escape from material slavery.

This birth as a human being is the best of all. Even a birth among celestial beings on heavenly planets is not as glorious as a human birth on this earth. On the planets of heavenly delights, the very numerous material advantages make it impossible to frequent the holy sages.

A birth as a human being is an exceptional opportunity to achieve spiritual realization. One may be born into a higher planetary system among celestial beings, but given the many material advantages that such a situation offers, it is impossible to escape from material slavery.

This is why, considering the attitude of certain iniquitous spiritual guides, Jesus said of them: “These are corpses that nothing points to.”

Likewise, the original sacred scriptures also called “The true gospel” specify: “Wake up! Wake up! You have the chance, the privilege, to have the human form; you must now access spiritual realization.” We need to rediscover our true spiritual identity, and know that we are truly a spiritual entity, a spiritual soul. The spiritual awakening of the senses and the mind is due to the action of the internal power of the Lord, which can only be achieved by the unmotivated mercy of God. It is by the grace of
