Hari Bol,
From the last few days a weird question is popping up in my mind.
We all know that we are thrown in this material world because at some point of time we expressed our desire to enjoy separately from krishna. My question is.. .. we wanted like that but whether it is possible that krishna might have created second/seperate spiritual world which would have been exactly like the original one where all the rules of the original spiritual world would have remained the same and where we could have enjoyed like him.
I know there is something which is not clear in my mind that's why such question has come up and may be because of underlying desire to enjoy separately from krishna.
Can anyone please help me with this..Hare krishna!

Once Arjuna asked Lord Krishna "I am doing so many mistakes, How is that you are not becoming angry at all". Krishna was stunned by the question. He took Arjuna near water and asked him to touch the water. Arjuna touched. Krishna asked what do you feel. Arjuna replied " I feel chillness". Krishna replied " Like water's nature is chillness my nature is not to become angry at all". The above I learnt from a lecture in a TV show. But the some Lord was angry at Hiranyakasipu because Hirankasipu was torturing Krishna's devotee. After killing Hirankasipu the Lord was so much angry that Brahma was frightened by his anger.
Or in other words Krishna lives for his devotees and his devotees live for him. There are loving exchanges in the spiritual world where each and every living entity keeps Krishna as its center and not himself as center.
Now suppose Soul A and Soul B in the spiritual world wants to enjoy like Krishna then it means that they are keeping themselves as the center. Suppose assume that Krishna creates a spiritual world and gives Soul A and Soul B the spiritual world and gives power to soul A and soul B to enjoy like Krishna. Or in other words Krishna gives power to soul A and soul B to become Krishna.Then there will be surely quarrel between Soul A and Soul B that "I am Krishna and you are not" as both of them are willing to keep themselves as the center. ( This we are clearly observing in this material world. Every one wants to keep themselves as center instead of keeping God as center. Everybody thinks the talent in themselves. " I am the great doctor". "I am the great engineer" and so on " I am ......", "I am ........", "I am ........" ..........etc). What would be the newly created spiritual world look like if soul A and soul B quarrels that I am Krishna you are not. Will it be a spiritual world. I doubt.
If there has to be no quarrel in the newly crated spiritual world then Krishna has to create soul A and soul B two separate spiritual worlds. Spiritual World A for soul A and spiritual world B for soul B. Again it is going to be void for both souls A and B in their spiritul worlds respectively because they are going to be the only living entities in those spiritual worlds as nobody else will be there. And hence the desire for soul A and soul B to keep themselves as center will never be fulfilled.
The only solution is Krishna is supposed to be what he is supposed to be. And we are supposed to be what we are supposed to be. Our permanent nature is to serve him with love and Krishna's nature is lovingly accept the service as our father.

Hare KRsna PRabhuji,
PAMHO.
That is exactly what Krsna has done - created a separate world, with all flora and fauna and facilities for enjoyment, and kept the jivatma there, as per the soul's desire. The reason we are not happy is that the soul cannot be happy without the supersoul. That is the reason we are unhappy.
Pls read Bhagawad Gita carefully, esp the part where it is mentioned about the inverted tree. That will clear this doubt in our mind. This world is but a perverted reflection of the spiritual world.
I hope I have been able to explain.
Haribol,
Your servant,
