With his mind perfectly fixed in the unifying practice of devotional service and free from all material contamination, he sees the Supreme and Absolute Lord together with His external energy, completely dominated by Him. Under the influence of this external energy, the individual being, although transcendental to the three influences of material nature, believes itself to be a product of matter and must therefore know the sufferings of this world. The unifying practice of devotional service has the power to directly alleviate the superfluous material suffering of an individual being.<\/span><\/p>\n
