For example, 24 Earth hours corresponds on Brahmaloka, the highest planet in our galaxy, at 4,320,000 years (four billion three hundred and twenty million years).

The only way we can access eternal life is by teaching us what we must do to return to God, in our original home on one of the countless spiritual planets, where we no longer reincarnate from body to body as on the material planets.

Having forgotten their relationship with Krishna, the Lord of the spiritual world, conditioned souls are not aware of this elementary truth and thus plan to live permanently in the material universe. Deluded by the Lord’s external energy, they devote themselves to various religious practices and to various forms of economic development, forgetting that they have no other duty than to return to their original dwelling place, to God.

This forgetfulness, due to the influence of the Lord’s external energy known in its material form, is so profound that conditioned souls no longer have the slightest desire to return to God.

Material creation has nothing unreal, false, illusory, but this temporary manifestation exists for the sole purpose of allowing conditioned souls to return to God.

Also, the desire to surrender completely to Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, to return to Him to serve Him with love and devotion, and the efforts made in this direction correspond to the right path. Man must therefore live for the sole purpose of returning to God, in his original home, so as not to put on any ephemeral body, pleasant or not, thus ending the cycle of repeated reincarnations in this material world.

This is the intelligence that characterizes man, and it is in this perspective that one must wish to lead his existence. This is the perfection of existence.

There is another world, spiritual and eternal.

The Lord reveals that there is another world, the eternal spiritual world, which is not subject to the cycle of creation and destruction.

It also specifies that it is given to the incarnate and conditioned soul that we are, to know how it should act and use its precious existence. Instead of wasting its energy in manipulating matter, which by the supreme will is doomed to irremediable destruction, the conditioned soul should use its energy to serve the Lord with love, in order to be able to access this other world that knows neither birth nor death, neither creation nor destruction, where, like God, all the beings who live there are eternally young, and offer eternal existence, all knowledge and bliss.

So in truth, material creation is temporarily manifested and then destroyed for the sole purpose of instructing the conditioned being who remains attached to the ephemeral. It is therefore also intended to enable him to attain spiritual realization and Krishna consciousness, while the beings attached to the fruits of their acts see in the search for the pleasure of the senses the primary purpose of their existence and ignore that the material universe is a world of perpetual suffering and danger.

Let us always remember that material creation exists only for the salvation of the conditioned souls, the fallen souls that we all are. It is for this purpose that Lord Krishna, through His Mercy without Cause, descends on various planets of this material world and deploys His spiritual and absolute acts there, for the sole purpose of freeing us from confinement or imprisonment in matter, in which we find ourselves, save ourselves, and bring us back into his marvelous infinite, absolute and eternal kingdom. He wants to offer us eternal happiness.
