A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
A materialistic person, thinking himself very advanced in intelligence, continuously acts for economic development. But again and again, as enunciated in the Vedas, he is frustrated by material activities, either in this life or in the next. Indeed, the results one obtains are inevitably the opposite of those one desires.
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
A person acting for Krishna or in Krishna Consciousness, under proper guidance and without attachment to the result of the work, is certainly making progress.
Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura
Possession of objects not related to Krishna is our main malady.
Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura
We are put to test and trial in this world. Only those who attend the kirtana of the devotees can succeed.
