<div class="quote_translation">
Anyone who attains a human body but does not take to the cult of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu is baffled in his opportunity. Amṛtadhunī is a flowing river of the nectar of devotional service. If after getting a human body one drinks the water in a poison pit of material happiness instead of the water of such a river, it would be better for him not to have lived, but to have died long ago.
</div>
<div class="text">
In this connection Śrīmat Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī has composed the following verses in his Caitanya-candrāmṛta (37, 36, 34):

<div class="quote_verse">
:acaitanyam idaṁ viśvaṁ yadi caitanyam īśvaram 
:na viduḥ sarva-śāstra-jñā hy api bhrāmyanti te janāḥ
</div>

“This material world is without Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu is Kṛṣṇa consciousness personified. Therefore if a very learned scholar or scientist does not understand Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, certainly he is wandering uselessly in this world.”

<div class="quote_verse">
:prasārita-mahā-prema-pīyūṣa-rasa-sāgare 
:caitanya-candre prakaṭe yo dīno dīna eva saḥ
</div>

“A person who does not take advantage of the nectar of devotional service overflowing during the presence of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu’s cult is certainly the poorest of the poor.”

<div class="quote_verse">
:avatīrṇe gaura-candre vistīrṇe prema-sāgare 
:suprakāśita-ratnaughe yo dīno dīna eva saḥ
</div>

“The advent of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu is just like an expanding ocean of nectar. One who does not collect the valuable jewels within this ocean is certainly the poorest of the poor.”

Similarly, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam ([[Vanisource:SB 2.3.19|2.3.19]], [[Vanisource:SB 2.3.20|20]], [[Vanisource:SB 2.3.23|23]]) states:

<div class="quote_verse">
:śva-viḍ-varāhoṣṭra-kharaiḥ
:saṁstutaḥ puruṣaḥ paśuḥ
:na yat-karṇa-pathopeto 
:jātu nāma gadāgrajaḥ
</div>

:bile batorukrama-vikramān ye

<div class="quote_verse">
:na śṛṇvataḥ karṇa-puṭe narasya
:jihvāsatī dārdurikeva sūta 
:na copagāyaty urugāya-gāthāḥ
</div>

:jīvañ chavo bhāgavatāṅghri-reṇuṁ

<div class="quote_verse">
:na jātu martyo ’bhilabheta yas tu
:śrī-viṣṇu-padyā manujas tulasyāḥ 
:śvasañ chavo yas tu na veda gandham
</div>

“A person who has no connection with Kṛṣṇa consciousness may be a very great personality in so-called human society, but actually he is no better than a great animal. Such big animals are generally praised by other animals like dogs, hogs camels and asses. A person who does not lend his aural reception to hearing about the Supreme Personality of Godhead must be considered to have earholes like holes in a field. Although that person has a tongue, it is like the tongue of a frog, which unnecessarily creates a disturbance by croaking, inviting the snake of death. Similarly, a person who neither takes advantage of the dust of the lotus feet of great devotees nor smells the tulasī leaves offered to the lotus feet of the Lord must be considered dead even though he is supposedly working.” Similarly, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam [[Vanisource:SB 10.1.4|10.1.4]] states:

<div class="quote_verse">
:nivṛtta-tarṣair upagīyamānād
:bhavauṣadhāc chrotra-mano-’bhirāmāt
:ka uttamaśloka-guṇānuvādāt 
:pumān virajyeta vinā paśu-ghnāt
</div>

“Who but the animal-killer or the killer of the soul will not care to hear glorification of the Supreme Personality of Godhead? Such glorification is enjoyed by persons liberated from the contamination of this material world.” Similarly, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam [[Vanisource:SB 3.23.56|3.23.56]] says,

<div class="quote_verse">
:na tīrtha-pada-sevāyai 
:jīvann api mṛto hi saḥ
</div>

“Although a person is apparently living, if he does not serve the lotus feet of great devotees he is to be considered a dead body.”
