Quotes Of The Day

Niranjana Swami
Collected Letters Written to Friends and Disciples, Vol. 4, April 25, 1995

Certainly, it is not mundane to be attached to the association of devotees. But if we remain conscious of the real value of their association, then when Krsna separates us from one another, we will see that Krsna was always in the background of that relationship. Seeing the presence of Krsna will free us from any unnecessary lamentation, and He will certainly not allow us to remain bereft of devotee association.

Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.2.26, Vrndavana, November 6, 1972

Here it is said, mumuksavah: "desiring for liberation." But the people do not know what is liberation. They are thinking liberation in terms of politics. Just like we have become liberated from the British rule. What sort of liberation? During British rule, people were free to move, free to spend their money. Now you are so liberated that you cannot move, you can[not] spend your money. This is liberation.
