Those who are righteous generally execute fruitive activities in order to derive some good result for sense gratification. Out of many such persons who engage in righteous activities for sense gratification, only a few come to know about the Absolute Truth. These are called jñānīs, empiric philosophers. Out of many hundreds and thousands of such empiric philosophers, only a handful actually attain liberation. When one is liberated, he theoretically understands that the living entity is not composed of material elements but is spirit soul, distinct from matter. Simply by theoretically understanding this doctrine, one can be called liberated, but actually a mukta, or liberated soul, is he who understands his constitutional position as an eternal servant of the Lord. Such liberated souls engage with faith and devotion in the service of the Lord, and they are called kṛṣṇa-bhaktas, or Kṛṣṇa conscious persons.&lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> &lt;div id=&quot;TLC1_1&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; parent=&quot;Teachings_of_Lord_Caitanya&quot; book=&quot;OB&quot; index=&quot;7&quot; link=&quot;TLC 1&quot; link_text=&quot;Teachings of Lord Caitanya, Chapter 1&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;span class=&quot;link&quot;&gt;[[Vanisource:TLC 1|Teachings of Lord Caitanya, Chapter 1]]: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;display: inline;&quot; class=&quot;text&quot;&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;display: inline;&quot;&gt;Kṛṣṇa-bhaktas are free from all material desires. Those who are liberated theoretically by knowing simply that the living entity is not material may still have desires, although they may be technically classified amongst liberated souls. Their main desire is to become one with the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Generally such persons are very much attached to Vedic rituals and righteous activities, performing them in order to enjoy material prosperity. Even when some of them transcend material enjoyment, they still try to enjoy the spiritual world by merging into the existence of the Supreme Lord. Some of them are also desirous of attaining mystic powers through the execution of yoga. As long as these desires are within one&#039;s heart, he cannot understand the nature of pure devotional service. When one is constantly being agitated by such desires, he is not peaceful. Indeed, as long as there is any desire for material perfection at all, one cannot be at peace. Since the devotees of Lord Kṛṣṇa do not desire anything material, they are the only peaceful persons within this material world.&lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;</div>
