Two Lords, Nityananda Prabhu and Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, They have appeared just to reclaim the fallen souls of this age. They are more kind than Krishna. Krishna, He is also very kind. He comes to deliver. But Krishna demands that first of all surrender. Chaitanya Mahaprabhu even does not demand surrender. He is so kind.So take shelter of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and be happy. Thank you very much.
In pure devotional service one comes to the realization that God is great and that the individual soul is subordinate to Him. His duty is to render service to the Lord - and if he does not, then he will render service to maya.
A pure devotee always thinks himself as not-devotee. If one thinks he is big devotee that is not good, thinking that he is first degree. We should not be puffed up. A devotee avoids it, remaining always in the second degree. Krishna has given everyone something extraordinary, and to serve Krishna with one's extraordinary talent means successful life.
We are giving you prasadam. By eating, eating,eating,eating, you one day will become Krishna Conscious, simply by eating. Because you are so dull, you cannot understand the philosophy. You know the belly like the animals. So therefore we are giving facility, "All right, fill up your belly, and you will be infected." As you take foodstuff from an infected area, you become infected with some disease, so this is Krishna-infected, prasadam. You take it, and one day you will be diseased with Krishna consciousness.
The transcendental ecstatic symptoms certainly become manifested in a devotee's body, but they should not be exhibited amongst common men.
If one knows nothing of God, one should not speak of God. When we fully surrender to God in loving service, we can actually understand God’s nature.
Everyone is searching after peace of mind. This is obtainable only when one is completely freed from the desire for material sense gratification and is engaged in the devotional service of the Lord
If one can develop his unflinching love for the transcendental Supreme Personality of Godhead, that can give complete satisfaction; otherwise there is no possibility of satisfaction in the material world or anywhere else.
Any sane man will think, “For so long I have served my nasty desires, but still I am not happy.” We are suffering, yet still we follow the dictation of lust and greed. In this way we create our karma.
Always think of the Lotus Feet of Sri Krishna and you will find no difficulties in executing the tasks allotted to you by Krishna
If one renders even a small amount of sincere devotional service, Krishna becomes obliged to elevate such person; and what to speak of one whose entire life and soul have been dedicated to Krishna's service
Krishna is the supreme father, and all living entities within the material world are exactly like misled children of a wealthy man who have left home to loiter in the street. Therefore the greatest benefit one can bestow upon one's fellow human being is to give him Krishna Consciousness.
Perfection does not mean that I can eat whatever I like, without any restriction. Or that I have a very nice car and a big bank balance. This is not perfection, because we still continue to remain under the grip of the laws of material nature.
If somebody cultivates Krishna consciousness, he can go to the spiritual nature. It is not difficult; you simply have to change your mode of life. To become Krishna conscious means to be pure, to regain our original, spiritual existence
In this age, only one yagna is recommended: chant the Hare Krishna mantra and dance in ecstasy.
Krishna consciousness is the science of God. Try to understand scientifically what God is and what religion is
Not knowing the real value of life, people think that the material body and the land where it is produced are all in all. This is the basic principle behind nationalism, socialism, and communism. Such thinking, which simply bewilders the living entity, is nothing but rascalism. It is due to the darkness of Maya. But as soon as one becomes Krishna Conscious, he is immediately relieved from such misconceptions.
This Krishna consciousness temple is the hospital for the diseased spirit soul. And everyone is diseased. Come to this hospital. We shall take care of you and cure your material disease.
Don't be after these motorcars, television, and all nonsense things, sporting, wine, women. Don't be after these. Simply eat sufficiently, keep your health nicely, chant Hare Krishna, realize Krishna, and go back to home. This is our philosophy.
Krishna is not poor. Krishna has not come here, He is very hungry, He has come here to eat your puri and rasagulla. No. But Krishna is so kind that He has come before you to accept whatever you can offer with devotion...
The Lord’s acceptance of the role of a devotee in the eternal form of Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is another of the Lord’s wonderful features. A conditioned soul cannot reach the absolute Personality of Godhead by his imperfect endeavor, and therefore it is wonderful that Lord Sri Krishna, in the form of Lord Gauranga, has made it easy for everyone to approach Him.."
Mango is so nice, either ripened or unripened, it is always good. It is 'King of all fruits'. So devotional service is king of all processes of God realization. That is its position always, either ripened or unripe
Do not try to interpret Krishna’s instruction in your own whimsical way. Simply try to understand what Krishna says. That’s all
