Bhagavad Gita As It Is

References to text BG 8.15
BG 8.15: After attaining Me, the great souls, who are yogīs in devotion, never return to this temporary world, which is full of miseries, because they have attained the highest perfection.

Text â„–
Only the purified soul can attain the perfection of associating with the Personality of Godhead in complete bliss and satisfaction in his constitutional state. Whoever is able to renovate such devotional perfection is never again attracted by this material world, and he never returns.
The Lord in the Heart
SB 2.2.31
Vidura inquired from Maitreya: O brÄhmaṇa, you formerly spoke about the sons of PrÄcÄ«nabarhi and informed me that they satisfied the Supreme Personality of Godhead by chanting a song composed by Lord Åšiva. What did they achieve in this way?
The Activities of the Pracetas
SB 4.30.1
Devotional service, beginning with the chanting of the holy name of the Lord, is the ultimate religious principle for the living entity in human society.
Yamaraja Instructs His Messengers
SB 6.3.22
The Supreme Personality of Godhead said: O most fortunate PrÄcetasa, because of your great faith in Me, you have attained the supreme devotional ecstasy. Indeed, because of your austerities, combined with exalted devotion, your life is now successful. You have achieved complete perfection.
The Hamsa-guhya Prayers
SB 6.4.43
[NÄrada Muni had described that there is a bila, or hole, from which, having entered, one does not return. The HaryaÅ›vas understood the meaning of this allegory.] Hardly once has a person who has entered the lower planetary system called PÄtÄla been seen to return. Similarly, if one enters the Vaikuṇṭha-dhÄma [pratyag-dhÄma], he does not return to this material world. If there is such a place, from which, having gone, one does not return to the miserable material condition of life, what is the use of jumping like monkeys in the temporary material world and not seeing or understanding that place? What will be the profit?
Narada Muni Cursed by Prajapati Daksha
SB 6.5.13
All learned men say that the five elements, eternal time, fruitive activity, the three modes of material nature, and the varieties produced by these modes are all creations of yoga-mÄyÄ. This material world is therefore extremely difficult to understand, but those who are highly learned have rejected it. May the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is the controller of everything, be pleased with us.
The Demigods Appeal to the Lord for Protection

Chapter 16: Returning to Our Natural Consciousness
Teachings of Queen Kunti
TQK 16
Upon achieving that stage of transcendental devotional service in pure love of God, a person becomes perfect, immortal, and peaceful.
