“Material nature acts under My direction, under My direction it generates all beings, mobile and immobile. By My order again, it is created and then destroyed, in an endless cycla”.

The fact that the Lord existed before the creative energy of the three gunas was put into action shows that He was not produced by material energy. His body is entirely spiritual, and does not differ in any way from his Person, which is not the case for conditioned souls. Before creation, the Lord was in his kingdom, One and Absolute.

Krishna, God, the Supreme Person used his external energy, which turns into material nature, to create the material cosmos with its countless galaxies.

He wanted each material galaxy to have a limited duration, and to be delimited in cycle by universal time which acts under its authority. A cycle is made up of four ages of different duration and spiritual level.

God puts an end to materialistic society, atheism, obscurantism and wickedness. We are currently at the beginning of the Iron Age (only five thousand years have passed), which will end in 427,000 years, with the advent of the Supreme Lord who will come like the Messiah to destroy all demonic disbelievers, protect all saints and restore spirituality, then devastation or deluge will occur. The golden age will begin again with a new cycle, and spirituality will be the sign.

And the first being to come out of this lotus is Brahma, who alone is capable of creating the rest of the manifested universe. This lotus is here described as as bright as a thousand suns. This indicates that living things are qualitatively identical in nature to the Supreme Lord, since they are tiny parts of them; indeed, the body of the Lord also diffuses a radiance.
