The quotes distinguish this platform from the material planes of gross sense gratification, mental speculation, and even pious fruitive activity. Being completely spiritual means existing in a state where there is no distinction between the body and the soul, as seen in the eternal forms of the Lord and the inhabitants of Vaikuntha. The selection further explains that the process of Krsna consciousness—specifically chanting and serving—is not a material ritual but a direct engagement with this spiritual reality, capable of transforming the practitioner's body and consciousness from matter to spirit.
- Beyond Material Layers: The completely spiritual platform transcends the gross waking state, the subtle dream state, and even the deep sleep of susupti, culminating in pure vasudeva-sattva where the Lord is revealed.
- Non-Dual Nature: In the spiritual world, everything is absolute; Lord Krsna and His expansions have bodies that are completely spiritual, meaning there is no difference between the person and their form.
- The Process is the Goal: Devotional activities like chanting the holy name are not material pious deeds but are themselves completely spiritual, acting as the bridge to the transcendental world.
- Ultimate Transformation: By cultivating spiritual desire during life, a devotee can attain a spiritual body at the time of death, just as Dhruva Maharaja's body transformed into a golden spiritual form.
