“Bhakti cannot be attained, it is a gift.”

The essence of Bhagavad Gita is that we should always think of Krsna, become His devotee, worship him and offer homage unto him.

Humility is practical application of knowledge.

You can think your self to be great, you can go on thinking your self to be great, till you see all fellow devotees going Back Home Back to Godhead, while you remain in this material world only.

Why are we not tasting the bliss of Bhakti? Because we are taking shelter of stone boats. We are sinking and drowning in Maya & still we are further taking shelter of stone boats and this can go on life after life.

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

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

Opportunities are always there for us to grow, opportunities are always there for us to come closer to each other & come closer to God; if we just look for them.

Detachment does not mean to neglect what Krishna gives you. Detachment means to do the needful as an offering to Krishna.

A devotee’s life should be so exemplary that it increases the faith upon other devotees.

Renunciation means death of false ego.

Where there is no inner freedom, there is no life.

In our conditioned nature we do not understand value of something until we lose it.

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

Simply performing devotional activities will not impart devotion to others but our consciousness should be absorbed.

Service is life. No service means, spiritually no life.

Even when Krishna gives you strength, maya will delude you to think it is your strength.

Your prayers are your light; Your devotion is your strength; Sleep is the enemy of both. Your life is the only opportunity that life can give you. If you ignore it, if you waste it, You will only turn to dust.

You will have to make up for the smallness of your size by your courage and selfless devotion to duty, for it is not life that matters, but the courage, fortitude and determination you bring to it.

I haven’t many years left ahead of me and I must devote all my time to painting, in the hope of achieving something worthwhile in the end, something if possible that will satisfy me.

Animals are near and dear to my heart, and I’ve devoted my life to trying to improve their lives.

The devotion which God sends to the succor of His Church and of the nations at the present time is the devotion to the Most Holy Eucharist. It is the highest of all devotions.

Leaders have devoted themselves to politics, little knowing, it seems that political independence disappears without economic independence that economic independence is the foundation of political independence.

I sometimes feel ashamed that I am devoting myself to artistic pursuits while so many of our people are suffering and dying for us. It’s true that fretting never did any good.

Your devotion to God is illustrated, demonstrated, and authenticated by your love for others.
