Indeed, Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, being the true source of happiness, all pleasure, and the reservoir of all blessings, whoever dwells with Him instantly enjoys profound, ineffable, perfect, unlimited, incessant, permanent, and eternal happiness.

One who enters the spiritual world, the infinite, absolute, and eternal realm of Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, never returns to the material universe.

Lord Krishna says to this effect: When a mortal surrenders to Me and offers Me all his fruitful work in his desire to serve Me with love and devotion, he attains freedom from birth and death and qualifies to attain immortality, the sharing of My nature, and the opulence that accompanies Me.

When they have attained me, the holy beings imbued with devotion, these noble souls, having thus raised themselves to the highest perfection, never again return to this ephemeral world where suffering reigns.

How can one attain the ultimate level, that of love for God?

Two traits characterize the development of the seed of love for God: attachment and state of mind, which immediately precede love for God.

The Supreme Lord, Krishna, is immediately won over by devotees who manifest these traits, which precede the appearance of the first signs of love for God.

How can one become a companion of God and feel truly free?

Anyone who wishes to become a companion of Lord Krishna on one of the countless planets that populate the spiritual world, and more specifically on Goloka Vrindavana, the supreme planet, the very planet of Krishna, God, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, must constantly meditate on the fact that they are distinct from material energy, that they have no relationship with it, and that they must realize their true spiritual identity, the one that allows them to know themselves to be truly a spiritual entity or spiritual soul, qualitatively equal to the Supreme Soul, also called the Holy Spirit, the plenary emanation of Krishna, and thus become a realized soul.

The realized soul then feels truly free.

This feeling of freedom from all material relationships, as well as liberation from the dense, ethereal envelopes of matter that cover the incarnate spiritual being, leaves them free to act as the servant of the Lord, even while still living in this world. This level of perfection is called the “liberated state” within the very heart of the material universe. This is the way to put an end to material existence. Not only must we know ourselves to be spiritual beings, but we must also, above all, act like one.
