Quotes Of The Day

October 19, 2023 - Ukraine - Nitai Gauranga Mahaprakash Lila, Part 1

We often say that this chanting is a prayer for a service to the Lord. So, a devotee should show at least that he has a desire to do something that is pleasing to Him. “Let me chant in such a way so I can express my desire to please Him by my chanting”. The Lord is very inclined to reciprocate such prayers.

Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Srimad-Bhagavatam 7.9.41, Mayapura, March 19, 1976

The Supreme Lord, the Supreme Person, He is speaking, the supreme authority. And if you, by your ordinary reason, you try to understand that what is the law, a very simple example is given there. So there is life. You cannot deny it. There is life. Now, that life, that body, is not in your hand. At the present moment, when the life is there, you are very proud of your knowledge. You are very impudent to accept the existence of God. You can do that foolishly. But after death you are completely under the control of nature. That is. You cannot avoid. Just like when you are foolish, you can say, "I don't believe in the government's law. Whatever, I shall do." But when you are arrested, then everything is finished. Then simply slap and shoes, that's all.
