Lectures from a Disciple, Vol. 2, Qualities of a Devotee
Devotees realize that if they are going to share Krishna, they must respect their hearers, recognizing that Krishna is present in everyone's heart. Devotees think, "Somehow, let me try to preach in a way that will help these people follow Krishna's supreme direction." They always see themselves as servants and are always conscious of the Lord's presence in the hearts of everyone. With this humble consciousness one can preach.

Lecture on Bhagavad-gita 2.14, Germany, June 21, 1974
You are eternal. You cannot be zero. That will be explained, na hanyate hanyamane sarire [Bg 2.20], that we are giving up this body, but immediately I have to accept another body. Immediately. Then where is your question of dismantling? By nature's way you will get another body. Because you want to enjoy, you have come here in this material world. There is no question of asking. Everyone knows that "I am in this material world. I must enjoy to the fullest extent." One who is unaware of the fact that "I am going to take another life," he is thinking, "This is a combination of this matter - earth, water, air, fire. So when it will be broken, then everything will be finished. So, so long I have got this opportunity, let me enjoy to the fullest extent." This is called material mentality, atheist, atheist, who does not know that we are eternal soul, we are changing body only.
