Envy severely distorts the living entity’s natural, loving tendency. Envy does not exist in a pure heart. Envy does not exist in our natural home, the spiritual world. As soon as envy arises in a living being, they can no longer remain in the spiritual world and must come to this material dimension, the temporary world of birth and death. With envy come all other undesirable material vices such as lust, anger, greed, delusion, pride etc.
