During the 2016-17 Bhakti Sastri Graduation Ceremonies, we were honored to have many wonderful sannyasis, and senior devotees join us and congratulate the students on completing their studies. Both students and guests had the opportunity to hear these senior devotees speak and offer words of wisdom. Here is an excerpt from HH Bhakti Dhira Damodar Swami:

If you give a car to a person who doesn’t know how to drive, what will he do with it? He will harm himself. If we don’t understand the scriptures, what will our Krsna Consciousness be like. Very good? Wonderful? Sweet? Progressive? No. Therefore, the scriptures are very, very important. I can say that I am very happy to see all of you wonderful devotees taking interest in studying our scriptures. By studying the scriptures, you will be able to understand what we need to do, what Krsna Consciousness is, how to practice it and how to achieve the goal. Thus, it is very, very important.
