the consciousness of Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, while others take longer. This indicates that consciousness is permanent despite the change of matter body.
The dense matter body is the vehicle of speech. However, let us avoid concluding that consciousness and intelligence are wiped out with it. The mind and intelligence subsist even after the destruction of the material body. Needing a body to function, they develop a new one. This is how the reincarnation of souls takes place. In fact, in this material world, it is a question of expanding our consciousness.
In truth, the embodied spiritual soul is found deep within the heart of a body of matter. The Supreme Soul and the distinct individual soul of God live in the same body.
The Supreme Soul is called a Friend, because Krishna, God, the Supreme and Sovereign Person, shows so much benevolence to the individual soul (that each of us is, our true identity) that He accompanies it when it transmigrates from one body to another. In addition, the Lord, through material energy, his agent, creates a new body for him (through specific parents; humans or animals) according to his desires and karma. The heart plays a mechanical role in the body. As God explains by this word:
“The Lord stands in the hearts of all beings and directs their wanderings to all, who are each as in a machine (the body) made up of material energy”.
Without Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, the living being, human, animal, plant, is nothing and cannot do. He can neither see, nor hear, nor act without the active principle, God.
God, the Eternal Supreme resides in the heart of all the bodies of matter, celestial, human, animals, plants, and maintains all these body of inert matter, active. That is why all these moving and still bodies are temples of God. The Lord alone directs the senses. Also, unless we are empowered by its energy, our senses cannot act. It is God who activates the mind and the senses. In other words, God alone sees, He alone acts, He only hears. He is the only active principle, the Supreme Master.
By entering the body of every living being as a Supreme Soul, God animates the body, the senses, the airs of life and the mental activities, and so all the ethereal and dense matter organs begin their functions.
