True happiness is transcending material happiness and unhappiness, and true misery is being involved in the pursuit of sexual pleasure. A wise man is one who knows the process of liberation from bondage, and a fool is one who identifies with his material body and mind.

The true path of life is the one that leads to Me, and the evil path is sense gratification by which the consciousness is deluded.

Real heaven is the predominance of pure virtue, while hell is the predominance of ignorance.

I am the true Friend of everyone, acting as the Spiritual Master of the entire universe, and My home is the human body.

One who is enriched with good qualities is indeed rich, and one who is dissatisfied with life is indeed poor.

A miserable person is one who cannot control his senses, while one who is not attached to sense gratification is a true controller [one who masters his senses and mind]. He who clings to satisfaction is the opposite, a slave.

I have thus clarified all the questions you have inquired about. There is no need for a more elaborate description of these good and bad qualities, for constantly seeing good and evil is in itself a bad quality.

The best quality is to transcend material good and evil.

When God inflicts punishment, it is always out of compassion and mercy, in order to save a person from Hell.

When God inflicts punishment on a person guilty of evil or criminal acts, it is to bring them to correction, to bring them to reason, and thus make them aware of their errors.

Divine punishments are based on the Lord's compassion for the guilty person, in order to save them and prevent them from going to Hell. But if the person refuses to listen to God and act as He desires, nor does heed the Lord's mercy, then they will go to Hell for a very long time. Every divine punishment or chastisement is intended to lead a being to repentance, penance, a radical change of attitude, a better life, a respect for and application of the regulative principles, precepts, divine commandments, and God's guidance, and finally, to enable one to erase the sins committed through the suffering experienced, and to live according to the teachings of Krishna, God, the Supreme Personality.
