Our Humble Obeisamces Prabhuji

 

Thank you.

 

These words "are you really going?" where my own dilation, or what ever is

the right word, sorry for that, but this point on below is what I was

searching for.

Quote from Czech-yatra pages:

 

 

 

On his way to material world the soul is given three chances by Krsna (in

the form of 3 Visnus) to stay in the spiritual world by taking shelter of

any of Them. Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati says in the purport to Brahma-samhita

5.16 that when the souls emanate from Mahavisnu they can surrender to Him

and live in Vaikuntha: "The innumerable jivas as spiritual particles

emanating from the oversoul in the form of pencils of rays of effulgence,

have no relation with the mundane world when they come to know themselves to

be the eternal servants of the Supreme Lord. They are then incorporated into

the realm of Vaikuntha. But when they desire to lord it over Maya,

forgetting their real identity. the egotistic principle Sambhu entering into

their entities makes them identify themselves as separated enjoyers of

mundane entities."

According to SB 3.20.16 when they collectively appear in Hiranyagarbha

(Garbhodakasayi Visnu) they can surrender to Him and live in Brahma-loka:

"From the navel of the Personality of Godhead Garbhodakasayi Visnu sprouted

a lotus flower effulgent like a thousand blazing suns. This lotus flower is

the reservoir of all conditioned souls, and the first living entity who came

out of the lotus flower was the omnipotent Brahma. Purport: It appears from

this verse that the conditioned souls who rested within the body of the

Personality of Godhead after the dissolution of the last creation came out

in the sum total form of the lotus. This is called hiranyagarbha."

According to SB 4.21.36 when the soul appears in human form by the mercy of

Paramatma (Ksirodakasayi Visnu) he gets the chance to receive knowledge from

guru, to perform devotional service and to return back to Godhead. If he

does not take advantage of it he falls into sense gratification and samsara:

"There is specific mention of the word gurum, which indicates the Supreme

Personality as caitya-guru. The Supreme Godhead in His Paramatma feature is

present in everyone's heart, and He is always trying to induce the

individual soul to surrender unto Him and to engage in devotional service;

therefore He is the original spiritual master."

SB 4.29.4 p.: "Originally the living entity is a spiritual being, but when

he actually desires to enjoy this material world, he comes down. From this

verse we can understand that the living entity first accepts a body that is

human in form [sB 9.24.58 p. - Brahma's], but gradually, due to his degraded

activities, he falls into lower forms of life - into the animal, plant and

aquatic forms. By the gradual process of evolution, the living entity again

attains the body of a human being and is given another chance to get out of

the process of transmigration. If he again misses his chance in the human

form to understand his position, he is again placed in the cycle of birth

and death in various types of bodies."
