Quotes Of The Day

Niranjana Swami
Lectures from a Disciple, Vol. 2, Overcoming Adversity, p. 192

Mahajano yena gatah sa panthah - one should follow the path of mahajanas such as Bali Maharaja, Prahlada Maharaja, and Narada Muni. Anyone who follows in their footsteps can achieve the results they achieved.

Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Bhagavad-gita 6.11-21, New York, September 7, 1966

The material life is just like fire. It has been compared with the forest fire. As the forest fire automatically takes place - nobody goes to set fire - similarly, in this material world, even if you try to live very peacefully and without quarreling with any other man, the place is such nuisance that you'll not be able to live in peace anywhere, anywhere within this universe. That is the process. But one who is transcendentally situated, either by the yogic process or by the process of empiric knowledge or by bhakti-yoga, either of these processes... There may be a little difference of the ultimate end, but all these three processes, they are meant for transcendental life. So any process, if you make it perfect, then really you get peace. Peace. The only difference is that this yogic process as described in the Bhagavad-gita, it is not possible to be executed in this age.
