Читать полностью…Real Enjoyment!
We, the living entities, are meant for enjoyment, but we are seeking enjoyment in a false place -- in an illusion. We are like the desert animals who run after water in a mirage and eventually die of thirst. They cannot relieve their thirst with such illusory water. Similarly, we are trying to manufacture many things to satisfy our thirst for enjoyment, but we are being baffled at every turn because material existence is an illusion. Therefore real intelligence means to inquire, "Where is the reality? Where is the eternal substance behind the illusion?" If we can find that out, we can experience real enjoyment.

What Is Given By God Is Also God!
What I am doing, it was all taught in our childhood by our parents, my family. We were taught, "There is a grain of rice on the ground, and if it is touched by your feet, you should pick up the grain and touch on your head." This was our training. The idea behind -- that the grain of rice is not man-made; it is sent by God. "O God, give us our daily bread." So here is the bread. It is God's mercy. Just see how idea, great idea. What is given by God, that is also God. This is God consciousness. You are asking God's mercy, so God's mercy is also God, the Absolute. So how can you disrespect a thing which is given by God? You cannot produce rice. You cannot produce bread. It is given by God. Everything.

The best Use Of This Bad Bargain!
Devotional service must continue under all circumstances. This material body is actually a bad bargain because it is prone to suffer, but we must make the best use of this bad bargain. That means to always be engaged in the service of Krishna without fail.

Читать полностью…No Loneliness In Krsna Consciousness!
Feelings of loneliness are simply temporary manifestations due to past conditioning.We should try to concentrate our attention to our eternal friendship with Krishna.
- Srila Prabhupada; letter to Kulasekhara, November 2, 1969
If You Become Inattentive
If you become inattentive, that is offense. You should know this. Try to avoid.
THE NECTAR OF DEVOTION
LECTURE - VRNDAVANA, OCTOBER 30, 1972
Fools Try To Please Krsna Directly!
Your next question is, should we love Krishna or love the spiritual master: You cannot go to Krishna directly, loving Him. It is common sense that if Krishna is the object of your love, His pet dog is also the object of your love. Friends meet friends and if the friend is with his dog the gentleman pats his dog first, is it not? So the man becomes automatically pleased, his dog being patted. I have seen it in your country. The conclusion is this: Without pleasing the spiritual master he cannot please Krishna. If anyone tries to please Krishna directly, he's fool number one.
- From a letter by Srila Prabhupada to Tusta Krsna -- Ahmedabad 14 December, 1972
Thinking Of Kṛṣṇa Is All Right
Thinking of Kṛṣṇa is all right, but if I think something which is not in Kṛṣṇa consciousness . . . . best thing is that I shall chant Hare Kṛṣṇa, and each word I shall hear; then it will be very much effective. Yes.
INITIATION LECTURE - LOS ANGELES, DECEMBER 1, 1968
Beginning The Drinking Business!
Madhudvisa: He wants to know how in the beginning, when we are starting to engage in Krsna consciousness, or devotional service to God, can you develop enthusiasm and sincerity.
Prabhupada: Yes. The thing is that if you want to become a drunkard, you mix with the people who drinks. Then you drink little, little, little. Then you become a big drunkard. Similarly, if you have got little sense that "I shall understand what is God," this very much qualification, if anyone only wants sincerely that "I will understand what is God," then your drinking business begins immediately.
Then if you continue, then as the drunkard becomes big drunkard, you become a big devotee. The beginning is that you must be little anxious that "How I can understand God?" This is the qualification. That's all. And if you are serious, then God is within you, He will give you intelligence. That is stated in the Bhagavad-gita: tesam nityabhiyuktanam bhajatam priti-purvakam buddhi-yogam dadami tam [Bg. 10.10].
When God sees that you are sincere, He is within you, He will dictate, "You do like this, you do like this," and you will make advance.
- Srila Prabhupada/ Talk on Bhagavad-gita 3.27 at Town Hall -- June 27, 1974, Melbourne
*Higher Than Philosophy!*
Philosophy is the highest, but even higher than philosophy is the practice of philosophy. So if you simply remain pure, your preaching will have effect.
- Srila Prabhupada; Letter to Brihaspati, November 15, 1971
We cannot be desireless. We cannot be silent. But our desires, our activities, have to be purified. That is real knowledge. That is real knowledge. We shall desire only to serve Kṛṣṇa. That is purification of desire. Not that desireless. That is not possible.
How I can be desireless? How I can be silent? That is also not possible. For a second, I cannot be silent. So then our activities should be engaged, dovetailed in Kṛṣṇa's service. This is real knowledge that, "I, as living entity, I have all these things, activities, desires, loving propensity. Everything is there. But that is being misguided." We do not know where to place all these things.
Srila Prabhupad Los Angeles - May 13, 1970
