The human form granted to the spiritual entity that incarnates within it is specifically intended for the development of Krishna consciousness, the consciousness of God, for this divine consciousness will allow us to regain our original, eternal spiritual body of bliss and knowledge.

The goal of Krishna consciousness, the consciousness of God, is to give us a body of the same nature as that of Krishna, God, the Supreme Person Himself. Knowing one's intimate relationship with the Lord is the supreme goal of human life. God consciousness is the art of spiritualizing material activity, of increasing the degree of spiritual realization of the one who practices it, of knowing the universality of God, and the relationship that unites us with Him.

Blessed are those who are fortunate enough to die thinking of Krishna, God, the Supreme Person, for they will obtain an eternal body like that of the Lord and will go to join the Supreme Person in His eternal abode.

We must preserve life, not destroy it, and ensure that this is the case for each of us.

All of this can, however, be avoided if one remains on the spiritual plane of Krishna consciousness, the consciousness of God, the Supreme Person, and by making the firm resolution never to terminate a life.

Even better, let us all decide to obey God, to respect and apply His precepts, His commandments, His regulative principles, to follow His advice and directives to the letter, and never to have an abortion, for all life is sacred and precious.

What are the major fundamental reasons why euthanasia should never be practiced?

Let us never legalize, recommend, order, encourage, or practice euthanasia, NEVER.

What is man truly, a soul or a material body?

What is the true identity of man?

In truth, man is a trilogy, that is, a composite of three distinct elements: a spiritual soul + an ethereal body + a dense material body.

In truth, the true spiritual identity of man is that of an immortal spiritual soul, and not the material body in which that soul has incarnated.

In reality, the spiritual soul that each of us truly is, is covered by the ethereal body, and the latter is also covered by the dense material body. So let us stop identifying ourselves with our body, and rediscover our true spiritual identity, and say with pride, I am a soul and not the body.
