The punishment in the hellish planets or reward in the heavenly material planets is NOT permanent because there is no such example in Krishna conscious philosophy where karma lasts forever.
For example, "eternal damnation" or "eternal hellfire" in the material creation that many Christians believe their God eternally condems a soul with, simply does not exist because karma is never permanent.
Frankly, if Christians believe in this ''eternal damnation'' nonsense, then their God Jehovah is a cruel uncaring nasty God that should be rejected because forgiveness MUST always be there regardless of what one has done. No one should be threatened with being "eternally condemned" because such karma does not exist.
No punishment in the material world can last eternally according to Srimad Bhagavatam. Nothing is forever in the material creation! All karma ''good and bad'' comes to an end.
However, to truly be free from this material world and continuously creating pious and impious karma with each human birth, one MUST surrender to Krishna's pure devotee who can then free one from all karma and take them back home back to Godhead.
