of God; but as soon as a person becomes fully aware of Krishna, God, he realizes that he is the eternal servant of the Supreme Lord.

In the material universe, the notions of “good” and “evil” are just creations of the mind.

The Lord says: “Whoever duality (good-evil, happiness-unhappiness, hot-cold, true-false) leaves indifferent, that neither the joys nor the sorrows of this world affect, surrenders worthy of eternal life.”

Whoever is resolved to put an end to all material preoccupation, no longer cares about this material world where duality reigns. It is perfectly accomplished in Krishna consciousness, the consciousness of God, and does not care about good or evil, happiness or unhappiness.

In the material universe, the ideas of “good” and “evil” are just creations of the mind. Also, it is wrong to say this is good or this is bad. You have to understand that in this world of duality, believing that something is good or bad is only a matter of imagination. However, it is not a question of imitating the one whose conscience is beyond all duality; you have to really be on a spiritual level to acquire this neutrality. God being absolute, evil does not exist for Him, only good. Otherwise, it could not be called Absolute. What we think is wrong is good in his eyes, because the Lord has created everything in a spirit of goodness, good being the essence of all that is. God being infinitely good, evil operates under his direction. God governs both good and evil; Hence his title of Absolute Master. Nothing can limit it, because It is infinite. It is beyond all duality and as infallible as infinite. He who, free from all bond, does not rejoice more in happiness than he grieves over unhappiness, that one is firmly established in absolute knowledge, the conscience of God.

There is always some upheaval sometimes favorable, sometimes unfavorable, in the material universe. Not to be moved by these changes, to be affected neither by good nor by evil, it is by this sign that one recognizes a being conscious of Krishna, God. As long as he is in the material universe, everyone has to face good and evil, the innumerable dualities of which he is the seat. But he who is absorbed in the consciousness of God thinks only of Krishna, the absolute and infinite Good, and is not subject to these dualities. The living being conscious of Krishna, God, the Supreme Person enjoys a purely spiritual condition, which is called in technical terms, “spiritual ecstasy”. Both good and evil emanate from God. It is said that evil represents its back and good represents its front.
