A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
Without becoming a devotee of the Lord, one cannot perfect one's human life. The perfection of human life is to be elevated to the spiritual world, where there is no birth, no death, no disease and no old age. Without this aim, any amount of material advancement in so-called comforts can only bring the defeat of the human form of life.
Srimad Bhagavatam
All heads of state should themselves be bona fide representatives of God and should cut down all irreligious systems. Unfortunately they are cowards who declare a secular state. Such a mentality is a way of compromising religious and irreligious systems, but because of this citizens are generally becoming uninterested in spiritual advancement. Thus the situation deteriorates to such an extent that human society becomes hellish.

The thing we do all or most of the time in our life, it will be easy to remember.

First thing is how to remember the Lord. If we don’t do it regularly, then it is difficult to remember.
Srimad Bhagavatam
Every man should act like this: When he meets a person more qualified than himself, he should be very pleased, when he meets someone less qualified than himself, he should be compassionate toward him and when he meets someone equal to himself, he should make friendship with him. In this way one is never affected by the threefold miseries of the material world.

Those who have a sanskrit background, then slokas can be remembered easily. At the end, it will be helpful to remember the Lord.

Service is also kirtana. Only singing is not kirtana. Then it automatically turns into remembering. This is the by-product.
