One has to learn tolerance in the face of dualities such as happiness and distress, or cold and warmth, and by tolerating such dualities become free from anxieties regarding gain and loss.
Bhagavad Gita 2.45,
Srila Prabhupada.
A devotee knows that even at his death Krishna will protect him.
The real test of our devotion will be at that time.
This is the symptom of a pure devotee. One should serve the spiritual master first. It is not that one should bypass the spiritual master and desire to serve the Supreme Lord. This is not the principle for a Vaishnava.
Do everything you have to do, but not with greed, not with ego, not with lust, not with envy but with love, compassion, humility and devotion. This is the teaching of the Bhagavad-Gita.
Actual joy is a product of the spiritual nature. It spontaneously manifests when the living entity begins to love God.
Any person who is chanting the holy names of Krishna (Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare) in course of chanting without offenses feels some transcendental pleasure and very quickly becomes purified of all material contamination.
Bhagavat Gita 9.2,
Srila Prabhupada.
Joy can only be experienced when we offer our love to Krishna
(Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare)
A Devotee hears transcendental knowledge with complete willingness to surrender to that knowledge.
The human life is meant for attaining eternal and unlimited happiness by spiritual realization.
This Human form of life is meant for developing love for God.
Humility is the quality of a spiritualist. All good leadership is spiritual, even though materialists may not realize that. This is because good leaders try to bring out the best in people. It doesn’t matter what the organization or coalition, bringing out the best in others means celebrating their spiritual nature. Spiritual leaders address the ultimate point of human life—progress on the spiritual path, and teach their followers to reinstate themselves in devotional service to God.
To chant the holy name and dance in ecstasy is so easy and sublime that one can achieve all the benefits of spiritual life simply by following this process.
Srimad Bhagavatam 6.2.11,
Srila Prabhupada.
Krishna Consciousness spreads wisdom and Knowledge.
The main force because of which this movement is spreading is love.
(Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna, Hare Hare/ Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare)
For the pleasure of the Lord, His devotees call Him by His Holy Name to render service unto Him, not to fulfill their own desires.
According to purity of love, there is satisfaction.
