Serving Krishna
We should always remember that our body is not for sense gratification, it is for Krishna’s service only. To render very good service to Krishna we should not neglect the upkeep of the body.

We should know in perfect consciousness that human life is bestowed upon the conditioned soul to achieve spiritual success and the easiest possible procedure to attain this end is to chant the holy name of the Lord.
The human body is rarely achieved and although temporary like other bodies, it is meaningful because in human life one can perform devotional service. Even a slight amount of sincere devotional service can give one complete perfection.
When a Krishna Conscious person is elevated to a responsible position, he never becomes puffed up. Just like a tree, when over laden with fruits, becomes humble and lower down, similarly a great soul in Krishna Consciousness becomes humbler than the grass and bows down like the fruitful trees because a Krishna Conscious person acts as the agent of Krishna, therefore he discharges his duty with great responsibility.
Any person who is seriously desirous of achieving real happiness (Krishna Consciousness) must seek out a bona fide spiritual master and take shelter of him by initiation.
One who fasts with one pointed intelligence on the day when the supreme Lord Sri Hari, who sleeps on a bed of the enemy of Garuda, goes to take rest in the milk ocean on the bed of Ananta sesa and also the day he gets up, gets all of his desires fulfilled.
Material nature provides facility to struggle for vain enjoyment.
It may be true that devotees may have their faults but so do we. It may be true that devotees may have their weaknesses and make mistakes but so do we. It may be true that sometimes devotees commit some offences but so do we Devotees, even if they may have weaknesses and faults, we are all fighting the battle together and sometimes one of us is weak and sometimes one of us is strong. When you're weak I will pick you up and when I'm weak you will pick me up and in this way we will march forward together in this great battle against Maya.
When one door of happiness closes, another opens but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.
Yoga or Religion means discipline. The basic principle of every Original Religion in this world is "discipline".
