PURPORT

The All Good Personality of Godhead being the creator of the universe He has His all good planning also for good of all good living beings. The good living beings are advised by the Lord to follow His good advices and by doing so they become successful in all spheres of life. There is no need of worshipping any other deity except the Lord. The Lord is all powerfull and if He is satisfied by our obedience unto His lotus feet, He is competent to bestow upon us all kinds of blessings for successful execution of our both material and spiritual life. For attaining spiritual existence the human form of material life is a chance for all to understand our eternal relation with God. Our relation with Him is eternal; it can neither be broken nor vanquished. It may be forgotten for the time being but it can be revived also by the Grace of the Lord, if we follow His injunctions recovered in the revealed scriptures of all times and all places.
