Each person, every living being, eternally retains its individuality, even after uniting with it. Lord. Our consciousness exists because we are integral parts of the supreme consciousness, which is none other than God Himself.
The Lord has designed things so wonderfully, that if a being's consciousness is transformed into a consciousness of God, there is no doubt that he will be a great holy being in his next life, and this, even if he has to put on a body of a different species.
Logos 354
Those who desire to achieve the total perfection of existence must lend a submissive ear to remarks relating to entertainment and to the spiritual and absolute attributes of the Supreme Lord, who always acts in a marvelous manner.
Systematic listening to the entertainments, attributes and sublime Names of Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, leads to eternal life.
Systematic listening implies a deeper and deeper knowledge of one's Divine Person, which in turn leads to an evolution towards eternal life.
The glorification of the sublime acts of God is precisely the remedy prescribed to neutralize the evils that are the birth, illness, old age and death, which concern all beings conditioned by matter. Access to such a level of perfection is identified with the purpose of human life, and the attainment of spiritual bliss.
The Lord has disappeared from the sight of living beings, humans, animals and plants, but He remains present in all of them, however, for He resides in their respective hearts in His Supreme Soul form, also called the Holy Spirit.
Logos 355
Buddha, who was an Avatar, came to lead to theism all the ungodly, led astray by atheism. That's why he wanted to end their habit of slaughtering beasts first. Animal killers actually represent elements of danger on the way back to God. There are two types: those who slaughter animals strictly speaking, but also those who have abandoned their spiritual identity, since the soul is also sometimes called “l'animal”, or the living being.
