A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
Krishna is the supreme father and all living entities within the material world are exactly like misled children of a wealthy man who has left home to loiter in the street. Therefore the greatest benefit one can bestow upon one's fellow human being is to give him Krishna consciousness.
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
One who always sees all living entities as spiritual sparks, in quality, one with the Lord, becomes a true knower of things. What, then, can be illusion or anxiety for him?
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
A person who is constantly engaged in reading literature enunciating the cultivation of Vaisnava devotional service is always glorious in human society and certainly Lord Krishna becomes pleased with him. A person who very carefully keeps such literature at home and offers respectful obeisances to it becomes freed from all sinful reactions and ultimately becomes worshipable by the demigods.
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
Childish fools pursue external desires and enter the wide chords of death. The sages, having comprehended the liberated condition, never pray for the temporary things of this world.
