Quotes Of The Day

Niranjana Swami
Lectures from a Disciple, Vol. 2, Qualities of a Devotee, p. 157

We have to learn to see the good qualities and the potential to perform devotional service in non-devotees. Devotees are those who can make even demons devotees. They are audarya, magnanimous, and they reflect the magnanimity of Lord Caitanya. By Lord Nityananda's mercy, even offenders become devotees. 

Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Srimad-Bhagavatam 6.1.22, Chicago, July 6, 1975

The meat-eating is meant for the sixth-class, seventh-class men who does not know, who remain naked, and they can neither produce food neither cloth in the jungle. It is for them. They also were not very much expert to maintain a slaughterhouse. When you need, you can kill one lower animal, not cow. The cow is not available in the jungle. You can have some deer or some boar. So these unimportant animals were killed by them. That is the sixth class, not the first class, second class, third class, fourth class. No. And the fourth-class man, who could not utilize his brain as first class, second class, third class, then he becomes fourth class - his business: to help, worker, these higher three classes.
