84 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 7, Ch. 12

Supreme Being, should cease from material existence, as flames
cease when the wood in which they are burning is consumed.
When the material body is returned to its various material ele-
ments, only the spiritual being remains. This spiritual being is
Brahman and is equal in quality with Parabrahman.

Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports of the Seventh Canto, Twelfth
Chapter, of the Srimad- Bhagavatam, entitled “The Perfect Society: Four
Spiritual Classes.”
