Lectures from a Disciple, Vol. 2, Qualities of a Devotee

Devotees should never think themselves superior to anyone; rather, they should offer respect to all. They think themselves servants, and that their service is to give Krishna to everyone they meet. 

Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Bhagavad-gita 2.14, Germany, June 21, 1974

You are eternal. You cannot be zero. That will be explained, na hanyate hanyamane sarire [Bg 2.20], that we are giving up this body, but immediately I have to accept another body. Immediately. Then where is your question of dismantling? By nature's way you will get another body. Because you want to enjoy, you have come here in this material world. There is no question of asking. Everyone knows that "I am in this material world. I must enjoy to the fullest extent." One who is unaware of the fact that "I am going to take another life," he is thinking, "This is a combination of this matter - earth, water, air, fire. So when it will be broken, then everything will be finished. So, so long I have got this opportunity, let me enjoy to the fullest extent." This is called material mentality, atheist, atheist, who does not know that we are eternal soul, we are changing body only.
