- If people at all want to cross over the dangerous ocean of Kali, they must follow the footsteps of the sages of Naimisaranya and accept Sri Suta Gosvami or his bona fide representative as the captain of the ship
- In the military line, too, the order of the captain or the commander is there. The soldier has to execute it. He does not consider whether it is pious or impious. That does not matter
- It is said that the human form is a great boon because it is the most suitable boat for crossing over the nescience ocean. The spiritual master is considered to be the most able captain in that boat

- O best of the brahmanas, for your information, let me tell you about the captains who are especially qualified to lead my military force. BG 1.7 - 1972
- On Battlefield of Kuruksetra there were great fighters called maharathas. Just as military men in modern days are given titles like lieutenant, captain, commander, & commander-in-chief, formerly there were titles like eka-ratha, ati-ratha, & maha-ratha
- One must use all these facilities to cross over the ocean of nescience - human form of body as a boat, the spiritual master as the captain, the instruction of Krsna as a favorable breeze
- One who has accepted this material body, his conditional life is always full of anxiety. Not that, that we are always in want. Even in your duty. Just like our Captain saheb is here. I have seen in the ship he has got very serious duty in the ocean

- Seated in this airplane under a beautiful protective umbrella and being fanned by the best of camaras, Maharaja Bali, surrounded by his captains and commanders, appeared just like the moon rising in the evening, illuminating all directions
- She (captain's wife) said, "Swamiji, if you can survive your seventieth year then you'll live for 100 years." Somehow I survived my seventieth year. I don't know whether I'll live 100 years but seventieth year was severe - three heart attacks & paralysis
- Since the spiritual master is the captain (to guide the boat in plying across the ocean of nescience), one must serve the spiritual master very sincerely so that by his mercy one will be able to get the mercy of the Supreme Lord
- So formerly, five thousand years ago, the same system, military - ordinary soldiers, then the captain, then the commander, the commander-in-chief - as there are gradations in the modern age, the same thing was there
- Surrounding Maharaja Bali on all sides were the commanders and captains of the demons, sitting on their respective chariots

- The personified Vedas continued, "Such unguided persons are compared to merchants going to sea on a ship without a captain"

- There were great, great fighters, maha-ratha. These are just like in modern days they are given title, lieutenant, captain, commander, commander-in-chief, like that. Formerly these titles were for the military man: eka-ratha, maha-ratha, ati-ratha
- These two captains, with Their soldiers such as Srivasa Thakura, travel everywhere, chanting the holy name of the Lord
