Hṛdayānanda: (translating from Spanish) So he is asking what type of piety is required to understand God.

Prabhupāda: That we have already said: no illicit sex, no gambling, no meat-eating, no intoxication.

(Lecture on Bhagavad-gita----------Mexico).

Guest (4): When one becomes sinless, would he then experience the indwelling of God?

Prabhupāda: Oh, yes, certainly. That is the platform of understanding God.

(Lecture---------Melbourne).

Young man: When one is aware of that fact, that he is not the body?

Prabhupāda: As soon as he come into knowledge.

(Room conversation-------Iran).

Italian Man (1): When we see Kṛṣṇa in us, in our hearts, the moment Kṛṣṇa comes, the moment that the link takes place with Kṛṣṇa in our hearts...

Prabhupāda: Yes. Kṛṣṇa is always within your heart.

(Morning walk--------Bombay).

Guest (8): Why didn't anyone see Kṛṣṇa's universal form before Arjuna? Kṛṣṇa said no one has seen before Arjuna. Why is that?

Prabhupāda: You become like Arjuna, you will see. First of all you become like Arjuna, friend of Kṛṣṇa. Then you will see. Do you think you are as good as Arjuna? Kṛṣṇa says, Arjuna addressing, that I am instructing to you my dear Arjuna, because you are my dear friend. And you are very great devotee. Bhakto 'si priyo 'si me rahasyam etad uttamam (B.G.4:3). I am speaking to you this Bhagavad-gītā because you are qualified. What is that qualification? Because you are My devotee and very intimate friend. So you become also intimate friend and devotee, you will understand everything. That is our request. If Arjuna becomes a friend and devotee you can also become. Why you are losing this opportunity? That is our propaganda. You also become a friend, a devotee, and be happy and see Kṛṣṇa as He is simply symbolic representation. He says everyone. Let us take this opportunity and become like Arjuna. That is perfection of life.
