The eternal jiva-siddha bodily form that all marginal living entities have is called ones nitya (eternally situated) – siddha (imperishable perfection of ones marginal constitution as an eternally devotionally liberated Krishna Conscious individual) - svarupa (one's perpetual Krishna Conscious individual form, shape, relationship and body) that never leaves Goloka-Vrndavana.

Srila Prabhupada - “Originally everyone is nitya-siddha. Nitya-siddha krsna-bhakti ’sadhya’ kabhu naya sravanadi-suddha-citte karaye udaya Every living entity originally nitya-siddha, “. Srimad-Bhagavatam Class 7.9.4– Mayapur, February 18, 1977

Srila Prabhupada - "Svarupa, or “one’s own form.” Purport Bhagavad Gita as it is 4.6

Srila Prabhupada - "By the process of devotional service, one can revive that svarupa, and that stage is called svarupa-siddhi —perfection of one’s constitutional position . . . We have an intimate relationship with the Lord, and because we are all qualitatively one . . . the whole purpose of Bhagavad-gita is to REVIVE our sanatana occupation, or sanatana dharma, which is the eternal occupation of the living entity" Introduction to Bhagavad-gita asa it is,

Being spirit is not impersonal; ultimately we are NOT living sparks, atoms or rays of individual light particles in a collective effulgence called the impersonal Brahmajyoti or dormant individual living light units as many Hindu schools of thought wrongly propagate.

 

The spiritual suicidal Hindu Mayavadi school of thought also have it wrong by foolishly saying it is all one consciousness without individual unites of living entities (I am you, you are me, And we are all together) and that ultimately we are all God

It is a fact one CAN enter that dormant dreamless state as an individual (whether the Mayavadi's believe the fact of the individuality of each living entity or not) however; it is only temporary that one has entered the impersonal inactive characteristic of the Brahmajyoti (Spiritual Sky) and one eventually has to leave that conditioned state of dreamlessness because it is inherent in all living entities to be active for either Krishna or themselves. Ultimately ALL living entities have a perpetual PERSONAL Krishna Conscious bodily form that is called one's eternal 'svarupa'. We are all sons and daughters of the Supreme Father Lord Krishna and just like Him, all of us have an original body.
