Quotes Of The Day

Niranjana Swami
Taking Care of Krishna’s Devotees, p. 75

Prabhupada once said to his disciples: “If you love me, I’ll love you. It’s not very difficult to get my love. Just love me and I’ll love you; it won’t be very difficult for you.” Prabhupada showed his love in a very special way: he loved us first. Then he said, “If you love me, I’ll love you.” But there were no illusions in our hearts. We knew that the only way we could love Prabhupada so much was because he loved us first. Therefore it wasn’t so difficult to love Prabhupada. Prabhupada was just radiating his love for us and love for Krishna.

Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.2.11, Tirupati, 26 April, 1974

"I do not know what I am, wherefrom I have come, where I have to go after leaving this body, why I am put into the tribulation of threefold miseries. I do not want to die. Why death is enforced upon me? I do not want to take birth. Why that is also enforced upon me? I do not want old age. Why it is enforced upon me? I do not want disease. Why it is enforced upon me? And what is the purpose of my coming in this material world, and where I shall go after my death? Or this is the finish?" There are so many things to inquire. That is called tattva-jijnasa.
