A man devoid of divine consciousness may experience temporary opulence through some act of virtue accomplished in the past, but if he lives in forgetting his relationship with the Lord, he must expect, according to the powerful laws of material nature, to suffer deprivation. No one can escape the vigilance of the powerful material nature, unless they lead a life of devotion, in full awareness of God.
Logos 148
Holy beings worship the Supreme Lord for the sole purpose of developing an undivided devotion to his Person.
Others, who have no plans to develop their love for God, which is the basic purpose of existence, do not worship Him. And all those who oppose a relationship of love with God condemn themselves, by their own acts, to a very dark destiny.
The Lord shows himself equal towards all beings. He Himself affirms: “The envious and evil, the last of men, I immerse them and plunge them back into the ocean of material existence within various forms of demonic life.”
Heavenly beings, God's assistants and other masters of creation exist only for unwanted embodied and conditioned souls who constantly threaten the tranquility of the kingdom of God. As they are all close servants and devotees of the Lord, they should never be disparaged. Their judgment must be taken into account because they are authorized to occupy various positions in the organization of the universe. They are appointed by the Lord in person to be his intimate servants.
Logos 149
The pure soul, in its original spiritual existence, is fully aware of its natural position as an eternal servant of the Lord.
All souls in this pure consciousness are released and live eternally in bliss and knowledge on the various spiritual planets called Vaikunthas, in the spiritual world. Material creation is not manifested to them. These eternally liberated souls are not affected by this material creation, which is intended for rebellious souls, those who are unwilling to submit to the Supreme Lord. It is this spirit of artificial domination that is called the false ego, it manifests itself through the three gunas or modes of influence of material nature and is only a mental creation.
