Godhead and Nescience

Godhead is light. Nescience is darkness. Where there is Godhead there is no nescience.
Srimad Bhagavatam 7.8.24,
Srila Prabhupada

The human form of body is a most valuable boat, and the spiritual master is the captain, to guide the boat in plying across the ocean of nescience.


Of Lights I am the radiant Sun.
Bhagavad Gita 10.21,
Lord Krishna

Association of saintly persons alone can bring us eternal peace and everlasting happiness and carry us across the ocean of birth, old age, disease and death.

We should chant the name of the Lord, Hare Krishna, that has as much potency as the Lord Himself.
Srimad Bhagavatam 3.21.32


The sankirtana devotees are very very dear to Krishna. Because you are doing the field work of book distribution, Krishna has immediately recognised them as true servants. Just like during war time, a farm boy or ordinary clerk who goes to fight for this country on the front immediately becomes a national hero for his sincere effort. So Krishna immediately recognises a preacher of Krishna consciousness who takes all risks t deliver his message.

The manifestation of unadulterated devotional service is exhibited when one’s mind is at once attracted to hearing the transcendental name and qualities of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is residing in everyone’s heart.
Srimad Bhagavatam 3.29.11-12,
Srila Prabhupada
