When the mind is turbulent, uncontrolled and restless, it is like a pond of water that is filled with mud. Therefore when we look within ourselves, all we perceive is the mud of our material conceptions of life. But when the mind is still through discipline, and through yoga, it is like a pond that has no waves and no turbulence. Then we can perceive through that crystal clear water the eternal nature of our soul.

Don't let a breath escape from your body without Krishna's name. That should be our determination throughout our life.

A virtue which is divine is humility.

We can use wealth, intelligence, education or health in harmony with our compassionate spiritual nature, or we can use them according to the selfish concerns of our particular egos. We have choices as human beings. We can be saints or we can be terrorists. We can be peaceful or we can be miserable. When we see everything in the world as God's sacred property, then we're seeing the spiritual potential, the spiritual substance, everywhere.

If somebody praises us and if we have any humility we will feel totally like a fool.

We get sufferings in life so that we become sober and listen to Krishna's message.

Crying out to the lord is the only eternal reality within this temporary world.
