Srila Prabhupada's Quote Of The Day

July 1

It is good to be prepared with a well-thought lecture in advance. However, we must be able to preach effectively at a moment’s notice or under any conditions or circumstances also. As you begin to study the Sanskrit words, in each word you will find a treasure house of different understanding.

As God is good, we are also good. But due to our material association, we have become bad. So if we revive our old position, Krsna consciousness, then automatically we shall become all-good.

One old man and his wife, sitting together. The wife is requesting the old husband, "Chant, chant, chant", and the husband is replying:"Can't, can't, can't". This cartoon we have seen. He will say three times:"Can't, can't, can't". But not "Krishna, Krishna, Krishna".

When our eyes are anointed with love of God, we can see Him everywhere. We have to develop our seeing power by developing love of Godhead. When one is sufficiently developed in Krishna consciousness, he can see the Lord every moment within his heart and everywhere, wherever he goes.

Innocent men, women, they are kept in that factory simply for livelihood. A little work will provide his needs. Nature has given so much facility. They can grow little food anywhere. The cows are there in the pasturing ground. Take milk and live peacefully. Why you open factories?

As soon as you offer yourself to be enjoyed by Krishna as servant, according to His order you serve, then immediately you are in the spiritual world. If you want to remain in the spiritual world, this temple is the spiritual world. We are not living in Melbourne. This temple is not Melbourne. It is Vaikuntha. It is Vrindavana. So if you stick to this temple service, Krishna's service, then you are not in this material world.

In the Vedic conception of Grhastha, householder, it is recommended that a householder shall see that even a lizard living in the room or even a snake living in that house should not starve. They should be also given food. And what to speak of others?

A Spiritual Master is always liberated. In any condition of His life He should not be mistaken as ordinary human being. This position of a Spiritual Master is achieved by three processes: Sadhana siddha - one who is liberated by executing the regulative principle of devotional service; Krpa siddha - one who is liberated by the mercy of Krsna or His devotee; Nitya siddha - one who is never forgetful of Krsna throughout his whole life. These are the three features of the perfection of life.
