Kuvera also clarified: Do not think that your brother was killed by the Yaksas, for he died in due time, killed by the laws of nature. It is eternal time, one of the aspects of the Lord, which is ultimately responsible for all creation and destruction. You are not responsible for these events.

In reality, the erroneous notion of “me” and “you,” based on a bodily conception of existence, or “bodily conception of existence,” is a product of ignorance. Ignorance of the knowledge of God as He really is, of our true spiritual identity, of spiritual knowledge, and of existential and absolute truth.

This bodily consciousness is the cause of successive deaths and rebirths, and it indefinitely subjects the being to material existence.

The concept of “me” and “you” as separate from one another is due to our forgetting the eternal relationship that unites us with Krishna, God, the Supreme Personality. Lord Krishna is at the center of all relationships, and we are all tiny fragments of His Person.

When we come to understand that an eternal bond unites us with the Supreme Lord, Krishna, this distinction based on a bodily conception of existence naturally disappears. When spiritual beings are enfolded in Krishna consciousness, there is no longer any distinction such as “me” and “you,” since all participate in the Lord's service. Indeed, since the Lord is absolute, the services offered to Him are also absolute.

To make a comparison, I would say that if we consider the arms and legs, we will quickly realize that they are in service to the body. Therefore, we, as beings, render identical service to Krishna. Although we have different functions, we are one and partake of the same nature, since all our actions have the sole purpose of serving Krishna, God, the Supreme Personality.

True knowledge consists in knowing that we are entities distinct from God, yet united with Him, and that together we form a single whole. As soon as the living being, which each of us is, thinks of itself as independent, then begins its existence conditioned by matter. The conception of an independent existence is comparable to a dream.

Rather, let us establish ourselves in Krishna consciousness, also called God consciousness, which corresponds to our true, natural, real, original, and eternal position. We will then be freed from the bondage of material existence.

Nothing and no one is independent of Krishna, the Supreme Being.
