Our Dearmost Friend!
Always remember Krsna Who is your dearmost friend and always serve Him just to please Him, and He will give you all intelligence how to be a first-class devotee.
- From Srila Prabhupada's letter to Mr. DDD -- Los Angeles 3 March, 1970
VAISHNAVA NEVER THINK I AM BETTER THAN OTHERS
One has to be blessed by a devotee to become a devotee. And he who is the servant of the servant of the servant- one hundred times removed- is not worse than one who directly serves the Guru. If one thinks, 'Because, I am servant, I am better than others. then he is not a Vaisnava. To offer one's respects to Guru and not to his disciples, this is wrong. This is not Vaisnava. One has to be
humble and try to serve all vaisnava- not some and not others

*Dedicate Your Life For Krsna!*
Dedicate your life for Krsna. That is the perfection. Even there are some faults, even dedicated life is noble life. Maybe, due to our past habits, we may commit some faulty action, but that dedicated life is sublime.
_- From Srila Prabhupada's Morning Walk Conversation -- March 4, 1974, Mayapura_
🌺 If one takes shelter of Vrindavan under Vrindavaneshwari Srimati Radharani , certainly all problems of his/her life are solved very easily .

Читать полностью…Suffering Is Everywhere!
The sufferings are there, here or India or hell or heaven -- anywhere within this material world there is suffering. But people are so foolish that simply having a nice motorcar or a skyscraper building, he thinks that "My all problems are solved." He does not know that this life is a flash only. I am eternal.
- From Srila Prabhupada's lecture on Srimad- Bhagavatam 6.1.7 -- San Francisco, March 1, 1967
No Big Or Small Service!
In the transcendental loving service of the Lord, it doesn't matter whether we are working, cooking, painting, writing, chanting, or whatever, they are all the same. There are no such distinctions of higher and lower on the transcendental platform. The important thing is that we are engaging our time and energy in the service of the Lord. After all, we are so tiny, what can we do? Krishna sees simply that this time is being spent in His service.
- From Srila Prabhupada's letter to Karunamayi -- Los Angeles 25 February, 1968
Suicide is not justified. Suicide is not justified. It is violation of nature's law. Nature gives you a certain type of body to live in it for certain days, and suicide means you go against the laws of nature, you untimely stop the duration of life. Therefore he becomes a criminal. Suicide is criminal even in ordinary state laws. One cannot make suicide.
From Srila Prabhupada's lecture on Bhagavad-gita 2.9 -- Auckland, February 21, 1973
Purification By Not Wasting Time!
Don't talk nonsense; don't waste your time. Then you become purified.

How To Take Gita Medicine!
If we want to take a particular medicine, then we have to follow the particular direction mentioned on the label of the medicine. Similarly, the Bhagavad-gita also should be taken or accepted as it is directed by the speaker Himself. The speaker of the Bhagavad-gita is Lord Sri Krsna.
- Srila Prabhupada; Introduction to Gitopanisad (Earliest Recording )
Deities of Radharani do not have Vaisnava tilaka painted on them because traditionally women did not wear any tilaka except kumkum (the red dot in the center of the forehead worn by married women, which is also called tilaka).
CC Madhya 8.176 states:
Saubhagya-tilaka caru-lalaṭe ujjvala
"The tilaka of good fortune is on Her (Radha's) beautiful broad forehead."
Saubhagya-tilaka refers to the kumkum mark worn by a married (saubhagyavati i.e. fortunate) woman.

From the book 'Patropadesa' Volume 2, letter dated 27 January 1999
Please don't take the association of devotees so cheaply. Association with devotees is a gift which is attained after many lifetimes. Even if we have the opportunity to avail of that gift, if we don't have the right attitude, we will not be able to take advantage of it.
- Bhakti Vikasa Swami
From the book 'Patropadesa' - Volume One
We are trapped souls in a state of forgetfulness of Krishna, and Krishna is giving you the chance now to re-establish your relationship with Him by this chanting process. So take full advantage of it and be happy.
