- The simple method is that one has to give up the arrogant attitude of declaring oneself to be God Himself

- There are many so-called scholars, politicians, they declare that "I read Bhagavad-gita daily, three times," but the result is no faith in Krsna. This is called useless waste of time
- There are others who make Him (the Supreme Lord) subordinate to the impersonal feature, although the opposite is declared in the Gita. BG 1972 purports

- They declared some unfit person to become acarya. Then another man came, then another acarya, another acarya. So better remain a foolish person perpetually to be directed by Guru Maharaja. That is perfection
- They have dismissed God's existence in so many ways, primarily by declaring Him to be impersonal, that is, without sense perception
- This (CC Adi 3.91) is a verse from the Padma Purana. Visnu-bhaktas, or devotees in Krsna consciousness, are known as devas (demigods). Atheists, who do not believe in God or who declare themselves God, are asuras - demons

- We follow Vedic principles. So Vedas declare that these four kinds of activity, they are sinful. So we accept. Our authority is Veda. Just like lawyer's authority is lawbook
- We must declare boldly to the whole world, that they should not foolishly dream of world peace unless they are prepared to surrender fully to Krishna as Supreme Lord
- We think the whole world or the entire human society is dwindling their faith in God so much so that some of them are declaring God is dead, and some of them are in frustration, manufacturing different kinds of isms, under different names
