Just like a building has pillars in cross section and in vertical
sections,our body has quite a lot of bones supporting the muscle&skin.
The building has no soul&doesnt move but our body is possessed by its
owner,the soul.So the body appears to be the self with life.
The elements of our body are the same inferior things.Beautiful or
ugly,skinny or fluffy,dark or fair complexioned,tall or short.
Regardless of all these differences,it smells miserable.Even though
everyone knows this well,we get attracted to beautiful form.A wife
even though ugly appears beautiful in the eyes of husband and
vice-versa.This attraction is because of the lust which covers the
soul.That's the power of illusory energy.From hell to heaven,all the
residents of all planetary systems are suffering with this disease
only.
The material body is made of material elements earth water fire air
ether. We can only understand these things being bound by the body
now. So the Lord mercifully comes as deities(Spiritual form in
material elements) to attract the sinful living entities who are
suffering by their attraction to beautiful forms.
We would have heard many people saying ISKCON temples have beautiful
forms of the Lord. And this is the reason why Srila Prabhupada
built so many temples to attract the conditioned souls back to
Krishna. And make them say bye to Maya! :)
