Nature of Spirit Souls – Happiness
Everyone is hankering for happiness because by nature we are happy : anandamayo ‘bhyasat (Vedanta-sutra 1.1.12). As spirit souls we are naturally happy, blissful.
What is The Material World Meant For
This material world is actually meant for misery, just as a prison house is meant for punishment.
Experiencing Joy
Joy can only be experienced when we offer our love to Krishna.
Killing The Mind of A Person
Terrorist guns can kill the material body, but the Holy Name of the Lord can kill the enemies within the mind of the person.
Complication of Materialistic Life
The complication of materialistic life is due to an uncontrolled mind and uncontrolled senses. The animal cannot control his senses, whereas the human being has the sense of decency & can control himself. By controlling the senses, one can understand the position of his self, the Supersoul, the world and their interrelation. Otherwise, we are no better than animals.
Projecting Consciousness and Senses to Krishna
When you will project your consciousness and senses to Krishna the you become joyful, free from bodily conceptions and pains.
Material World
Material world is like a dream.
Material Qualifications
All our material qualifications are like big zeros, adding Krishna is like putting one before these zeros.
Best Gainer
By offering everything to Krishna, nobody is loser. They are gainer, the best gainer.
Srimad Bhagavatam 1.3.19,

Working Sincerely
We have to work sincerely and because Krishna is in everyone’s heart, there will be no difficulty to have the necessary facilities. — Letter to Satsvarupa, 14th Sep, 1969.
