- According to our mental concoctions we work in various ways, desiring various achievements
- Actually one attains different results by different means. It is not that all achievements are one and the same
- Although Dhruva Maharaja's achievement of an eternal planet was not conceived of by him, Krsna thought, "What will Dhruva do with an exalted position within this material world?"
- Although you have not yet experienced these achievements which are free from fear & lamentation, I offer them all to you because you are engaged in my service. Now just look at them. I am giving you the transcendental vision to see how nice they are
- As a result of this achievement (come to the conclusion that Vasudeva is the supreme cause of everything) of the goal of life, such an advanced learned scholar or philosopher surrenders unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead
B

- Both Kardama Muni and Devahuti were spiritually enlightened; she desired from the beginning that first she be pregnant and then she be empowered with the achievement of God's grace and love of God
- But even after obtaining such achievements (pure devotional service and all details of material enjoyment, salvation and mystic powers), one should be on guard against the pitfall of offenses at the feet of the devotees
- By nature one dies natural death, and you have accelerated-many millions of people can be killed by this atomic weapon. So what is your achievement? Save millions of people
- By the grace of Krsna only, everyone is engaged in the practice of religion, the development of economic conditions, the satisfaction of the senses and, ultimately, the achievement of liberation from material bondage
D
- Dharma-vrata-tyaga-hutadi-sarva-subha-kriya-samyam api pramadah: to chant the holy name of Krsna in exchange for the achievement of piety is an offense. This, of course, was unknown to the student - of Lord Caitanya in CC Adi 17.249
- Discoveries of progressive scientific achievements are not independent. The scientist has to attain the knowledge of a thing already existing by means of the wonderful brain made by someone else
- Does it mean he is very advanced in yogic power because he can fly? You are proposing that. Huh? Nothing is any big achievement. The big achievement is how to become Krsna conscious. That is wanted
E
- Engagement of the senses and the mind as described above (SB 9.4.18.20) is the perfect process for transcendental achievement, which is called yukta in the Bhagavad-gita. BG 1972 purports
- Even though we may be able to avoid distress and artificially enjoy some material happiness by temporary achievements, this represents no factual gain in life. Our duty is to achieve permanent happiness and eternal life
F
- For a perfect yogi, there are eight kinds of superachievements: one can become lighter than air, one can become smaller than the atom, one can become bigger than a mountain, one can achieve whatever he desires, one can control like the Lord, and so on
- For people in general-especially those who are not in the renounced order of life-transcendental engagement of the senses and the mind as described above (SB 9.4.18-20) is the perfect process for transcendental achievement. BG 1972 purports
H
- He (Sukadeva Gosvami) was only sixteen years of age. A person is honored for his achievements and not for advanced age. A person can be older by experience and not by age
- Human civilization means to advance the cause of brahminical culture, and to maintain it, cow protection is essential. There is a miracle in milk, for it contains all the necessary vitamins to sustain human physiological conditions for higher achievements
- Human form of body is also temporary. But the animal cannot get that achievement which we can get. Durlabham manusam janma tad apy adhruvam arthadam. Arthadam means . . . artha means meaningful, or some material profit or spiritual profit
I
- If a person is carried away by such achievements, then his devotional service becomes slackened. One should, therefore, strictly adhere to the principles of disciplic succession
- If one is not Krsna conscious, bhagavata-bhakti-hinasya, then his big nationality, jatih, his achievement, japas tapah, his activities, everything, bhagavad-bhakti-hinasya jatih japas tapah kriyah, all these things are like decoration of the dead body

- Instead of striving for achievement in the 4 principles of religiosity, economic development, sense gratification and liberation, it is better if somehow or other one develops transcendental love of Godhead. That is the greatest success in life
- It is stated in the Bhagavad-gita (BG 12.5) that persons stuck on the impersonal step undergo more sufferings than achievement of reality. Therefore knowledge imparted by Sukadeva Gosvami unto Maharaja Pariksit helped him attain the service of the Lord
- It is the duty of the guardians, family, natural guardian, father and mother, and political guardian, the government, the teacher, the guru; it is the duty to give facility - facility for achievement of the highest goal of life
