The Lord states that as soon as one reaches Him by devotional service – which is the one
and only way to approach the Personality of Godhead – one attains complete freedom
from the bondage of birth and death.
The Lord’s original form is that of Sri Krishna, and Sri Krishna expands Himself into an
unlimited number of forms, such as Baladeva, Rama, Nrsimha and Varaha. All of these
forms are one and the same Personality of Godhead.
EVERY THING IN THIS UNIVERSE AND ALL OTHER UNIVERSES SHOULD BE USE IN KRISHNA CONCIOUSNESS THAT IS CALLED UKTVAIRAGYA.
The culture of knowledge reaches perfection only when the knower comes to the point of
surrendering unto the Supreme Lord, Vasudeva.
Self-realization is possible in the human form of life, but not in other forms.
One should become a scientist or philosopher and conduct research into spiritual
knowledge, recognizing that spiritual knowledge is permanent whereas material
knowledge ends with the death of the body
One of the most striking aspects of a Vaishnava’s attire is his tilak – the clay markings on his forehead. that just as a soldier’s regiment can be known by the uniform he wears, similarly a devotee of the Lord must wear tilak on his forehead in all conditions.
Although it is best to wear tilak all the time, some workplaces may not allow it. If a devotee cannot wear tilak to work then he can chant the appropriate mantra and apply ‘water tilak’.
Tilak is worn for both sanctification and protection. When one wears tilak, he is reminded that his body is a temple and should be respected as such. Both body and mind should be kept clean. It also reminds others who see the person wearing tilak of Krishna. There are many different understandings of what the shape of the tilak represents for Vaishnavas, but devotees accept that the U-shaped mark represents the heel of Lord Krishna, and the oval part represents a Tulasi leaf.
Tilak is made of clay from any sacred place, usually the banks of a sacred river. Gaudiya Vaishnavas usually use cream-coloured clay from a sacred lake near Dwarka, India, called gopi-chandan.
