Substance of Bhakti is Surrender and Humility.
When we are honoured for a thing, we become attached to that thing.
When you advance in Krishna Consciousness it is more difficult to tolerate being honored than to tolerate being dishonored.
Trying to be happy in this world is greatest illusion.
Service is life. No service means, spiritually no life.
If we see the body we live in as a temple used to engage in beautiful activities in the service of God's children, then we recognize it as spiritual. But if we use our body for more selfish purposes, then we're only experiencing its material conception.
