Words to meditate upon...

The greatest cause of anxiety is endless expectations.

Power, morality, peace etc. can be attained by other processes, but becoming a prisoner in the heart of his devotees is only possible through pure devotional service.

Sincerity in sadhana and eagerness to serve is the basis of one's relationship with the spiritual master.

It is too late to avoid reaction, but not too late to come to the right conclusion.

The more you become advanced, the more you become responsible even for little things.

Once our dreams are fulfilled misery begins.

As soon as we think anything is ours, pride enter our heart.

Compassion is an essential element of love.

Taking birth in kali-yuga itself shows that we have no qualification; Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu therefore manifests ultimate mercy.

Inner fulfillment gives strength to fight maya.

Krishna may crush our ego, pulverize it, crush it to powder, make it into granules, (the question is) do we still continue to remain faithful to Krishna?

Death is like a storm which will sink everything in the river of time; boat is the human body.

Hear it again..again...again by H.H.Radhanath Swami

Rupa Goswami said just as a man is eager to meet a young girl or a young girl is eager to meet a young man; just be eager to meet Krsna, just be eager to serve Krsna, to know Krsna, to love Krsna, (and) Krsna will reveal Himself. So it is very important, Prabhupada is explaining in this purport that we must approach a spiritual master in a disciplic succession, but we must approach in the mood in which Brahma approached Krsna, not just as a fashion, not just as some time of social etiquette; (but) with desperation, with urgency that this is the prime and ultimate need of life to inquire.

After Sanatana Goswami asked these questions, he presented himself as the most fallen soul, Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu said something very instructive; he said actually Sanatana Goswami you know everything, there is nothing for Me to teach you, however it is a nature of a great saintly person to inquire in this way, out of strictness, out of etiquette, it is natural, a great soul is humble.

As we become more advance in Krsna consciousness, it is not that we know everything and we just speak and we don’t want to hear from anyone else; it is the opposite. If we are actually making advancement, we are getting the taste in hearing about Krsna, we want to hear it again and again and again, we are eager to learn, we are eager to inquire so that message would be broadcasted again and again.
