- Arjuna was only superficially offensive because (as has already been explained in the Second Chapter of BG) all the assembled persons on the battlefield would continue to live individually, as the soul cannot be slain. BG 1972 purports
- As it is an offense to consider oneself to be Krsna, so it is offensive to consider oneself to be Yasoda, Nanda, or any other associate of the Lord. We should always remember that they are transcendental; they are never conditioned souls

E
- Even in offensive stage, if you go on chanting and try to be, try to become safe from offensive condition... Dasa-vidha-nama, ten kinds of offenses, if we avoid, that is the process of auspicity
- Even it is little offensive, still these rascals should be taught good lesson. Yes. They're misleading. Godlessness. As soon as you say "God created", immediately they become arrogant. That is our protest. If they accept God, then we give them all credit
H
- He (Krsna) can appear in the material world, but contrary to the offensive conclusion of the Mayavada school, He has no material body
- He (Srila Jiva Gosvami) also warns that thinking oneself one of the associates of the Supreme without following in the footsteps of the gopis is as offensive as thinking oneself the Supreme. Such thinking is an aparadha
- He (Vrkasura) was especially sinful and offensive because he wanted to experiment on his own master, Lord Siva

- If one is not even able to chant 16 rounds, then he must make it up the next day. He must be sure to keep his vow. If he does not strictly follow this out, then he is sure to be negligent. That is offensive in the service of the Lord

- If one tries to separate the Absolute Personality of Godhead from His holy name or His transcendental form, qualities and pastimes, thinking them to be material, that is offensive

- In namabhasa stage - not in pure; marginal, between pure and offensive - that is mukti. You become mukta, liberated from material bondage
- In text 154 (of CC Madhya 9) Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu clarified this in a very lucid way: isvaratve bheda manile haya aparadha - It is offensive for one to differentiate between the forms of the Lord

- In the offensive stage (of chanting the holy name) one may desire all kinds of material happiness, but in the second stage one becomes clear of all material contamination

- Lord Siva advised the sons of the King to hear him attentively, for inattentive hearing is offensive

- One should not become a caste guru and sell mantras for the benefit of mundane customers, nor should one make disciples for a livelihood. All these activities are offensive

- One should not consider Lord Visnu and things related to Him as being different. All this is offensive
- One should not look on Lord Krsna as an ordinary human being, for He is the origin of all visnu-tattvas; nor should one regard the Supreme Lord as a demigod. All this is offensive
- One should not think that the forms of the Lord are the same as the forms of the demigods. This is certainly offensive, as confirmed by the Vaisnava-tantra: yas tu narayanam devam brahma-rudradi-daivataih, samatvenaiva vikseta sa pasandi bhaved dhruvam

W
