The destination for all living beings should be the abode of God. Where you will get a beautiful body which is eternal, full of bliss, full of knowledge, no old age, no disease, no death, and there is no need to work.

For millions of years, India was pure and prosperous but now it has become degraded due to Indians becoming beggars of foreign cultures and technology, instead of being givers of India’s greatest asset, spiritual knowledge. “The supreme destination, which is infallible, the ultimate destination, a place from which, once having reached it, one never returns. That is My supreme abode." (Lord Krishna, Bhagavad-Gita 8.21) A short life on the land of Bharat-varsa (India) is better than a lifetime on the planet of Brahmaloka, where the lifespan is trillions of years. Because after a long life on Brahmaloka, one must return to this or other planet and go through the repeated cycle of birth, old age, disease, misery, and death. In one short lifetime in India, if one can elevate his consciousness to Krishna consciousness, then the result will be that this will be the last material life. At death, the soul will be immediately transferred to the spiritual abode called Vaikuntha. There one can live in a beautiful body eternally, with no problems. Even the demigods, who are now living on the higher planets, wish to take birth in India when they end their current life. This is because outside India, there is godlessness. However, India is very quickly becoming degraded due to the influence of foreign cultures of sex before marriage, materialism, cow killing, lust in public, God being invisible, people suffer or enjoy by chance (no karma), this is the only life (no reincarnation), we are the body (no spiritual knowledge) and so on.
