Bhakti Tirtha Swami
What is the essence of all the vidhi-nisedha or rules and prohibitions mentioned in the scriptures? The essence of all positive injunctions is to always remember the Lord. This ability to always remember God will lead us to the goal of recognizing Him as our well-wisher, greatest provider, and protector who is very magnanimously inviting all living entities back to their original home in the spiritual kingdom.
Srimad Bhagavatam
Unless one is a completely pure devotee, one cannot enjoy the transcendental bliss derived from chanting and dancing in the ecstasy of the sankirtana movement. Such ecstasy is not possible for an ordinary devotee.
Purport on Srimad Bhagavatam 8.3.20-21
Srimad Bhagavatam
The entire Krishna consciousness movement is based on the principles of the sankirtana movement inaugurated by Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Therefore one who tries to understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead through the medium of the sankirtana movement knows everything perfectly.

“It’s not possible to make Vrindavana villages in the cities. We must look out of the box, beyond our city temples”.
Jayapataka Swami
Every person of high character, the brahmanas, ksatriyas, vaisyas and sudras should engage in Brahmacharya life. Nowadays modern education neglects the character development as it doesn't give an opportunity to live as brahmachari. Actually everyone should live some years as bramacari properly trained up in the dharma. After that they may remain as bramachari or become sannyasi or they can marry and continue their activity as a devotee grhastha. This is the system handed down since time immemorial and followed in Krishna conscious movement also. This training of serving in the ashram is very important as it builds up the proper character.
Jayapataka Swami
Desire is most powerful and subtle. Due to desire people become president , go to jail, marry or divorce. Due to desire everything that is happening is happening in this world with Krishna's sanctioning because everybody is desiring imperfectly no one is satisfied and the more there is uncontrolled material undirected desire the is the chaos. The passport to get out of this material world is pure desire which can be cultivated.
Radhanath Swami
Due to false ego & selfish disposition we find everyone as potential enemy.
Radhanath Swami
God’s power is that He can conquer even the greatest simply by a tiny mosquito or a tiny bacteria.
Srimad Bhagavatam
Simply by accepting the sankirtana movement and chanting the Hare Krishna maha-mantra, the fallen souls of this Kali-yuga will be delivered.
Purport on Srimad Bhagavatam 8.5.23
Srimad Bhagavatam
Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is the inaugurator of the sankirtana movement, anyone who performs sankirtana to please the Lord is very, very glorious. Such a person has perfect intelligence, whereas others are in the ignorance of material existence.
Purport on Srimad Bhagavatam 5.19.24
