The physiological effects of reading Sanskrit are similar to those experienced during the Transcendental Meditation® technique, according to research recently completed by Dr. Fred Travis, director of the ERG/psychophysiology lab of Maharishi University of Management in Fairfield, Iowa, USA.

People are affected with three kinds of material qualities: goodness, passion and ignorance. Generally, they are affected by the lower two qualities -- ignorance and passion. Rajas-tamah. How do we know that "This man is in the modes of goodness and this man is in the modes of passion and this man is in the modes of ignorance"? How do we know? By the symptoms. By the symptoms.

So He is within and without. Simply we have to purify our eyes to see Him. That's all. You can see God without and within, but you cannot see with these eyes. These materially contaminated eyes or materially contaminated senses, you cannot understand by these senses. But God can be perceived, can be seen, by these senses, by these eyes, when you purify it. That purificatory process is Krsna consciousness.

Oh krsna,

I know you can't see me in pain

Oh king of kings this maya makes me go insane

give me your Bhakti...a divine gift

from this dump ,it might help me to lift

whenever tears trickle down my eyes

you send me your angels & they make me rise

I am not perfect to be your lover

even then you help me to recover

praising you is the only thing I do

everything is fake my master except you ...

(For Varaha Dvadasi)

The gopis then looked upon the ground they were traversing and began to address the earth: “Dear earthly planet, we do not know how many penances and austerities you have undergone to be now living with the footprints of Lord Krsna upon you.

(For Ramanujacarya’s disappearance anniversary)

Dr. Patel: Sir, I read your commentary on Bhagavad-gita and Ramanujacarya’s. They are absolutely parallel.

Prabhupada: Yes.

Dr. Patel: I think you have taken out of it… (laughter)

Prabhupada: How can I…

Dr. Patel: I am just joking.

Prabhupada: No, no. Our process is to take from the acaryas. We are not manufacturing. We are not so fools and rascals that we have to manufacture. We have to take the remnants o

No one makes my bed
I stand up on my head
I sleep wherever I please
I walk with the dead

I am not of this world
This world is from me
I am not enslaved by it
I have let it go free

I can be anywhere I want
In the planet of your choice
I can do whatever I want
I can even be your voice

Do you hear me calling you
I am in your heart forever
I love you and always will
Love you now and forever

Fear was something I knew
Before I met myself
Now fear knows me and runs
I shine all by myself

Darkness disappeared forever
whereve

Before giving up the present body , If one is able to tolerate urges of material senses and check the force of desire and anger , he is a yogi and is happy in this world.
