elephant, or an ant, they all love them equally. Through the material envelope, they see only the embodied spiritual entity that resides there.

That is what truly love is. This is why God commands not to eat meat, fish and eggs.

What is the true meaning of free will and free choice that God grants us?

Only love pure natural and spontaneous can satisfy God, an immaculate love, without a trace of any personal desire. This is the main reason why God gives every living being his freedom of choice. This free will allows us to love or not to love the Supreme Eternal.

The choice is left to each living being. Beings who dedicate their love to Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, are found in the spiritual world, while those who do not want to love him are relegated to the material universe. Those who do not love God, or who are envious of his position as Supreme Beneficiary, cannot remain in the spiritual world. When this happens, they are immediately fallen from the spiritual realm and sent to the material universe, for the envy of the Lord does not exist there.

The choice to love or not to love the Supreme Eternal exists in each of us from all eternity. The individual being distinct from God has no real independence. When he places himself under the tutelage of the Sovereign Lord, he remains free. But as soon as he engages in material activities while having the impression of fulfilling his senses, he is indeed under the spell of material nature.

It is up to us.

Loving God, obeying Him and serve him with love and devotion, and live with him in his absolute kingdom, happy for eternity by his side, or choose not to love him, not to serve him with devotion, in order to satisfy our own senses and undergo in this case, in the material universe life after life, rebirth, death and suffering repeatedly.

Where does spiritual life lead us?

How can we do we know whether or not we should reincarnate in our next life?
