Wherever there is power, there is very great responsibility to utilize it properly.

A sincere soul is not trying to make a show. His enthusiasm is an act of service.

Sometimes the Lord gives us a free sample of religious experience, but for more, we must pay a price with the currency of sincere dedication to the process of cleansing.

Our humble service attitude in our life is what determines what effect chanting will have on our consciousness. Otherwise we can be chanting for millions and millions of births before we actually achieve the goal.

In my path, three things are really important. One is associating with people who inspire us with their positive influence. The company we keep is very important. Number two is our spiritual practice. Putting aside sacred time every day to make that journey within, to tune into the frequency of our true nature and the love and the grace that is within us. Number three is to try living with ethical, moral and spiritual values, which culminates in unselfish service.

When you advance in Krishna Consciousness it is more difficult to tolerate being honored than to tolerate being dishonored.

The only way we can make this world a better place is to transcend it.
