Hare Krishna! Excerpts from the teachings of Srila Prabhupada and other Gaudiya Vaishnav Acharyas.
Keep On Going, Despite Opposition!
"You can do all kinds of opposition, but we shall go forward. The caravan will pass. You may bark." So take all these things as Krsna's mercies and engage more enthusiastically. Why should we be defeated?
- Srila Prabhupada, Conversation on 1976 Book Scores -- January 16, 1977, Calcutta

OUR TONGUE BUSINESS EAT PRASADAM AND GLORIFYING
So tongue should be used always for glorifying the Supreme Lord. That is our business with the tongue. And the tongue should not be allowed to [eat] anything except kṛṣṇa-prasāda. Then you become liberated, simply by controlling the tongue. And if you allow the tongue to do anything, then it is very difficult.
Bhagavad-gītā 2.13
Bhagavad-gita Is Not Rubbish Like Newspapers!
Vyasadeva was not an ordinary fiction writer. Anyone can write any nonsense. Formerly, no book will be accepted unless it is written by liberated soul. That was the system. No other man will dare to write any book, neither his book will be accepted in society. Only Vedic literature and literature produced out of Vedic knowledge. That is book. Otherwise, what are these books? These fictions and novels are not books; they are rubbish. Actually they are rubbish. Don't you see? The newspaper, it is published after spending so much money. Every day, the newspaper proprietors are paying to the news collectors, to the photographers, to the staff, to the establishment huge amount of money and producing newspaper, say, fifty pages or twenty-five pages, and throwing in the street. Nobody cares for it. Because everyone knows what is the value of this news. Nobody is taking care. "Oh, here is a newspaper behind which there is so much expenditure." "Oh, here is one. Let me take it." Everyone kicks it. You see? You see practically. Huge bundles of newspapers, nobody cares for it. That means actually this literature has no value. No value. Simply they are wasting their time, producing such nonsense literature. Even if it has got any value, the newspaper boys throws early in the morning. At ten o'clock it has no more value. That's all. Finished all value. Whatever value was there, that finished by ten o'clock. So Srimad-Bhagavatam, Bhagavad-gita is not a literature like that. Can you give any evidence, any book written five thousand years ago is still being read with still greater veneration, with greater respect, with greater attention. Is there any book in the world? Find out. Not a single book you'll find. You cannot trace out of any book written, say, thousand years or two thousand years ago. But here is a book which was spoken five thousand years ago; still, all over the world...

The Purpose Of Our Society!
Although there may be some difficulties within our Society, these things are not very important. What is important is that we should simply fix our mind on Krishna's Lotus Feet. This is His instruction in the Bhagavad-gita. So we associate with one-another so that we can assist each other in hearing and chanting about Krishna. That is the purpose of our Society. This you will not find in the materialistic society where all hearing and chanting is simply concerned with sense gratification. So our desire is Krishna and we want to go back home--Back to Godhead where Krishna lives eternally. So you simply follow my instructions as I have given to you and surely your life will be a success.

Krsna Is Attracted By Devotion!
How Krsna becomes attracted by the devotional service of His devotees is described by Narada in the Srimad- Bhagavatam, Seventh Canto, Tenth Chapter, 37th verse. There Narada addresses King Yudhisthira while the King is appreciating the glories of the character of Prahlada Maharaja. A devotee always appreciates the qualities of other devotees." So that was the position of the Pandavas; although Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the greatest among all greats, He remained with those royal brothers, being attracted by their devotion, by their friendship and by their love. That is the proof of how great this process of devotional service is. It can attract even the Supreme Personality of Godhead. God is great, but devotional service is greater than God because it attracts Him.
- From "The Nectar of Devotion" by Srila Prabhupada
Retirement!
Retirement means to become cured from the diseased activities but to place yourself in healthy activities. That is Krsna consciousness.
- From Srila Prabhupada's lecture on Bhagavad-gita 4.11-18 -- Los Angeles, January 8, 1969
