“I just didn’t know where I fit in – I didn’t seem to fit in my parent’s generation. I didn’t seem to fit in my own generation. Little by little, this took me into a spiritual search for understanding; a search for meaning and fulfillment.”

Regret or remorse of the wrong we have done should be in a positive spirit of changing, turning towards God with humility.

What touches our hearts and impresses us deeper is sacrifice and humility, when we see someone accept the higher principle of cooperation, putting aside his/her own achievements.

Tolerance means to fix our mind, to fix our words, & our actions on a higher principle.

When we recognize how precious and truly glorious we are, then we become humbled by that and recognize everyone’s true spiritual identity. And then our greatest joy is in sharing.

Humility is an ornament which attracts Krishna’s heart. Beginning of all knowledge comes from humility.

Substance of Bhakti is Surrender and Humility.

Any propensity other than love cannot exist in the spiritual world. There is unlimited variegatedness, but they are all extraordinarily wonderful ways of expressing love.

To purify the heart is the one and only purpose that God has created this human life.

Bhakti and Humility cannot be separated like sweetness cannot be separated from sweet.

The more we are happy in Krishna Consciousness, the more we become purified.

Mother Nature is always speaking. She speaks in a language understood within the peaceful mind of the sincere observer. Leopards, cobras, monkeys, rivers and trees; they all served as my teachers when I lived as a wanderer in the Himalayan foothills.

The essence of spiritual life is simply to use our free will properly.

To the degree we try to create peace around us, we will find peace within ourselves. And to the degree we find peace within ourselves, we will actually have the power to create peace around us.

Even if you want one drop of respect you have to take birth in this material world again.

The greater is our sphere of influence, the greater the responsibility.

Krishna is present fully in His holy name and this is realized by the humility and sincerity in our chanting.
