Quotes Of The Day

Niranjana Swami
October 15, 2023 - Budapest - Caitanya-caritamrita, Adi Lila 17.258-260 - "The Dangers of Pride"

Due to pride, one cannot recognize the heart of a person who has devotion and begins to calculate other’s position, "Does he have the same ornaments as I have? Does he have the same knowledge of Shastra as I have? Can he quote thousands of slokas like I know? Has he taken a great birth as I have taken?" They pass judgment. They don't recognize.

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.
