I respond to the worship of the pious believer according to the particular transcendent feeling which animates it, such is My nature. The devotional service that living beings offer Me, revives in them eternal life.
The true relationships that human beings must exchange with each other, with one another, are those which take place at the level of soul, and based on the ties that unite them to the Divine Soul, God, for soul-to-soul relationships, are established from the bond that unites each person to the Supreme Soul. These soul-based relationships result in spiritual liberation, for they are firmly linked to God Himself.
Only the human being with limited intelligence does not know that freedom does not exist in this world, for there is no is subject to divine laws. That his thoughts, words and actions, are controlled by God and his heavenly helpers, and that he will be held accountable to divine justice. May his behavior determine what his next existence will be, and his body. Whether his thoughts, words and actions, lead to good or bad consequences. That if he does not listen to God and do what He says, he will inexorably sink into matter, become a slave to it, and subject to the darkness of ignorance, he will never see God again.
To surrender ourselves to God and serve him with love and devotion, such is the perfection of existence, and eternal life.
Logos 371
Why does God allow the existence of good, evil and suffering.
In reality, good and evil do not exist. In fact, the notion of good and evil is linked to matter, and results from the bodily concept of existence.
In this vision, good consists in respecting and applying the precepts of God, the regulatory principles or forbidden, divine commandments, divine laws, divine instructions, to believe in his divine word, in his teaching, to obey him, to do his will, to unite our interests with his, to renew the bond which unites us to him, to abandon ourselves to Him and to serve Him with love and devotion.
Evil is to envy God, to believe us identical to Him or to take us for Him. It is to deny him, to refuse to serve him, to claim that he does not exist, and therefore to reject his word, his teaching, his commandments, his laws, not wanting to obey him and therefore reject his authority. Ultimately, doing the opposite of good.
