Lectures from a Disciple, Vol. 2, Forgiveness, p. 162
There is no loss in any Krishna conscious endeavor, but if we commit Vaisnava aparadha, our advancement will be checked; we will not be able to make any more advancement. And if we cannot make more advancement, the seeds of fruitive desire may sprout. Ramacandra Puri is an example of this misfortune. He offended Madhavendra Puri (and later Lord Caitanya), and because of these offences, he became attracted again to material desires. If we commit such an offence, we will fall from our position. But we can also be redeemed for our offence if the Vaisnava we offended is forgiving.
Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Bhagavad-gita 4.7-9, New York, July 18, 1966
In Sanskrit language, it is said... Lord Caitanya's picture you have seen on the showcase. He's dancing, and chanting Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare. This sound vibration of Krsna, Hare, Rama, as soon as the mind is cleared off, then we see our real position, and the immediate result is bhava-maha-davagni-nirvapanam. There is a fire always blazing over this material world. Everyone is trying to extinguish it. But it is not possible to extinguish this fire of material miseries unless we are situated in our pure consciousness of spiritual life. That is the whole thing.
