Just as iron shows its innate quality when the magnet comes close, so the minute consciousness, jiva, shows his natural tendency when he becomes favorable towards the supreme conscious entity Krishna. His natural tendency is pure love of Krishna. This quality of raga is perfect in the spiritual world. The material world is only a reflection of the spiritual world. The jiva, accepting unnatural qualities in the material world, produces a different type of raga towards the objects of the world, though raga itself is generated from his nature.
If the conditioned jiva does not destroy his subtle material body, his pure love will not appear. Only after breaking the subtle body, the bhakti which appears is pure priti. Before this stage, bhakti attempting self- surrender by destroying the material identity and establishing the spiritual identity, has priti, love, as its quality (pritimayi) but cannot have priti as its essence (priti atmika).
