July 6, 2021 - A Recent Letter to a Sincere Devotee (from the Blog)

Somehow we need to cultivate faith in pure devotional service, even though we are impure and we know we are impure. It's only by hearing about pure devotional service and by chanting in the association of devotees who inspire us to keep hope in that goal that we can stay in the society of devotees. Even just a "little" faith in pure devotional service can save us from all forms of suffering. In fact, even one moment's faith in pure devotional service can save us from lifetimes of suffering.

Srila Prabhupada
Morning Walk, Johannesburg, October 16, 1975

Harikesa: So the incentive is the happiness in society?

Prabhupada: Yes. That is everyone is hankering after: "Where is happiness?" This will be the happiness. When people will be peaceful, happy in their living condition, that will bring happiness, not by imagining that "If I have got a skyscraper building, I will be happy," and then jump over and commit suicide. That is going on. He is thinking that "If I have a skyscraper building, I will be happy," and when he is frustrated, he jumps down. That is going on. This is happiness. That means all rascals. They do not know what is happiness. Therefore everyone requires guidance from Krsna. That is Krsna consciousness.
