It is written: “Those who live in the ecstasy aroused by the love of the Supreme Lord, God, always see him in their hearts thanks to the service of love and devotion which they offer to him.”

Logos 132

A pure devotee (or a pure devotee) of the Lord is never disturbed by the unfortunate combination of circumstances created by the external energy of the Lord, material nature.

The Lord is the supreme witness, because it is only through his gaze that material energy becomes active for the manifestation of the cosmos. Originally, only the “witness” existed, but not the external energy, on which the Lord looks, from which was born in him a certain feeling of insufficiency, like the one experienced by a lonely man in the absence of his wife. This is a poetic image, but the fact remains that the Lord wanted to create the cosmic manifestation in order to give the conditioned
