The Return of the Prodigal Son…
In Vedic terms the son thought he had the wealth of his father , but in reality he only had access to the illusory temporarily situated material energies the real wealth although situated eternally within his heart but needed to be brought out .The father mounts a rescue remedy in the form of the instructive illusory energies and most importantly God personally enters into the material world but is not effected by its illusions or attracted to them , as the chief of the prison when entering the prison is not attracted to it or effected by its rules .Divinity importantly sends his representative the spiritual master who infuses the living beings with the taste for pure devotion and association with God , thus the original purposes of their existence is realised, and they enter the lands where they were intended to be .The Adam and Eve story is meant to show how the beings were bound in illusions , the attraction of sex is the binding force , but that is felt in the street dog , there is something much greater, and the origins of all attraction lies in the Spiritual kingdoms and in Divinity Himself, Krishna. .

We should note whilst wondering in the illusions of the material energies every individual particle of consciousness carries with them their own self made prison,  no prison is identical with another prison, the prison has an internal and external compartment , ie. The gross and subtle body . If we could be placed inside the body of a spider , or a cat , or any creature how would we see , certainly this illusory energy is unlimitedly attractive to the conditioned souls who could wonder around it for eternity and still be attracted in one way or another. Thus the expression in the Vedas ” eternally conditioned souls ”
