The Supreme Lord Personality of Godhead is one without a second but He manifests Himself by different energies because He is by nature blissful. The living beings are also manifestations of His marginal energy qualitatively one with the Lord and there are innumerable living beings both within and without the external and internal energies of the Lord. The spiritual world being the manifestation of the Lord's internal energy the living beings, within that internal potency, are qualitatively one with the Lord without any contamination of the external potency. But the living being in the external potency of the Lord, although qualitatively one with the Lord, due to contamination of the material world such qualities are pervertedly manifested and therefore they are the cause of so called happiness and distress of the material world. Such experience of the material happiness and distress of the living being or being devoured by the strong in the weak form of life are different stages of material pangs and they are all ephemeral without any actual happening on the spirit soul. The perception of such ephemeral happiness and distress is due only to the forgetfulness of his qualities equal with the Lord. There is however a regular current for rectifying the fallen condition of the living being by the Lord Himself from within and without. From within He corrects the desiring living being as localised Paramatma and from without He corrects by His manifestations of Spiritual master and the revealed scriptures. One should look unto the Lord means that one should not be disturbed by the so called manifestations of happiness or distress of the living being but he should try to co-operate with the Lord in His outward activities for correcting the fallen souls. By His order only one should become the Spiritual master and co-operate with the Lord. One should not become a spiritual master for one's personal benefit or for some material gain as a venue of business or occupation for earning livelihood. Such bonafide spiritual masters who look unto the Supreme Lord for co-operating with Him are actually qualitatively one with the Lord and the forgetful ones are perverted reflections only. Yudhisthir Maharaj is advised therefore by Narada not to be disturbed with the affairs of so called happiness and distress but he should only look unto the Lord to execute the mission for which the Lord had descended. That was his prime duty.
