Quotes Of The Day

Niranjana Swami
Lectures from a Disciple, Vol. 2, Association, p. 217

The best service we can render the senior Vaisnavas is to donate our ears - to give submissive, aural reception. By giving our ears and eagerly hearing their katha, our own desire to serve Krishna will awaken more and more.

Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.7.24, Vrndavana, September 21, 1976

This finger, when it is attached to the body, if there is any trouble you can spend thousands of rupees to cure the trouble. But if the finger is cut off, amputate, and thrown on the street, it has no value. No value. Similarly, so long we are maya-mohita-cetasah, out of Krsna's touch, we have no value. No value. Valueless. Useless. That is our position. Matir na krsne paratah svato va mitho... The position is that adanta-gobhir visatam tamisram [SB 7.5.30]. When you forget Krsna... What is that forgetfulness? When you are interested in sense gratification. That is called forgetfulness.
