Lord Krishna

The Lord is the creator of everything.
Bhagavad Gita 4.13,
Srila Prabhupada.


We spirit soul, we have been encaged within this body, so our natural aspiration is to get freedom from this encagement as much as the bird is struggling to get freedom from this cage.
Lecture, Bhagavad Gita 2.25,
London, August 28, 1973,
Srila Prabhupada

Whatever devotional service we may have, we do it for seeking the shelter of the Lord, not for our mental or physical enjoyment.

Advancement in spiritual life does not depend on any kind of previous education or qualification. The method itself is so pure that by simply engaging in it one becomes pure.
Bhagavad Gita 9.2,
Srila Prabhupada
