A
- All these boys and girls who are sitting here, you know that they have given up automatically (four pillars of sinful activities). They have been able, by association with Krsna
- As Caitanya Mahaprabhu did (organized Sankirtana Movement), we can follow. We are not doing anything harm to the people; we are actually giving the highest benediction to the human life
- Association is required. Otherwise why we are opening so many centers? Just to give them the facility of association
B
- Because he has got this human form of life, he must be Krsna conscious. Then his problem is solved. So you have to preach like this, that we are giving the best human welfare activities to utilize this human form of life
- Because human being can understand the Krsna philosophy, therefore we hold meetings of the human being. But still, whenever we get opportunity, we give protection to the animals
- Because our process is chanting. So if my students, my sons, my friends, they are all in God's name, then I chant always. This is the significance - of giving spiritual name
- Best thing would have been to live with us and work, give contribution as much as possible for running on this missionary work. But the thing is, we have no place
- Bombay is a very big city, people are rich, so we can give you nice room, nice prasadam. Come here, live here (gurukula) at least once in a week and learn Vedic literature, Vedic civilization. The essence of Vedic literature is Srimad-Bhagavatam
- By utilizing our energy in this way (disseminating KC propaganda by selling books, by making publicity, newspapers, television) to give everyone access to the Absolute Truth, that is the real understanding of desire to serve humanity
E
- Especially in the Western countries they are habituated to all these things: meat-eating, illicit sex, intoxication, gambling. How they give it up? Association. We are opening so many branches all over the world to give opportunity of association
- Everyone has aversion. Therefore we give this chance to everyone to chant with us Hare Krsna mantra. This is the only. If you go on chanting, then gradually that cause of aversion will be cleared
- Everyone is hankering after that pure, joyful life, but he does not know where to get it. That is the defect. That information we are giving. Here is the life. You just try to approach Radha and Krsna and you'll have full life of enjoyment
- Everyone is suffering for misuse of their intelligence, denying the authority of God. And everyone can take advantage. We are giving that knowledge. Without any exception, everyone can take
- Everyone knows a flimsy idea there is God, but we can give actually who is that God, what is His name, what is His address, what is His father's name, what is His mother's name - everything. That is Krsna consciousness
F
- First of all you can talk. It is not expected that everyone will be able to understand. It is not expected. It is not easy job. But still, some ideal institution should be there who are actually serious to understand. They may be given the chance
- For increasing this faith, you have to mix with these persons who are cultivating Krsna consciousness little intimate. Therefore better to live with us for some time. We give this chance, everyone - Come and live with us
- For ordinary public, four hours' kirtana, chanting and dancing, bas. And then give them sufficient prasadam "Take prasada." This process. Because unless he has got little sraddha, he will simply put some false argument and waste your time
I
- I (Prabhupada) have been informed by Devananda that your wife has borne you one nice son. So this is very good news. You may give him the name Nirmala Candra
- I (Prabhupada) was very pleased to see in the newspaper clippings that you were voicing our Krishna Consciousness platform very nicely and that the public was given opportunity to understand something
- I can understand the hint which you give me about Haimabati and Hansadutta. As a matter of fact woman is like fire and the man is like the butter pot. They must keep apart for healthy atmosphere
- I think now you may be appointed by me to give first initiations to new disciples by chanting on their beads on my behalf. In America Kirtanananda Swami is going that. So now if there are two of you that will give me great relief
- If Krsna says that, "Give Me dog" or "Give Me cow flesh," we shall give and eat. But not before that. So we have no quarrel with these fish-eaters or cow-eaters. We are concerned Krsna says, patram puspam phalam toyam yo me bhaktya prayacchati
- If one is sincerely in Krsna consciousness, all the good qualifications will come, automatically. Therefore we give more stress on KC
- If somebody has got money and if he wants to spend it for Krsna, then we can give plan, a very nice temple, you see, spending millions of dollars. We have got such ideas and such plans. But that does not mean that we are depending on a temple
- If somebody has got money, he wants to construct temple, it is welcome. We can give nice plan how to do it. In India there are Radha-Krsna temples, just like one temple is as good as a big fort
- If we can give service to Krsna by making another man surrender to Him, then He will very much appreciate that service & that is our gain. Try to follow this principle & preach vigorously to your best capacity & everything will be all right. Don't worry
- If you cannot do that (giving good food and shelter), then simple supplying food and shelter, is serving the Maya
- In India we haven't established a very strong distribution, but I want to organize sales here. Please consider this, and if you have any suggestions how to do it, please give them to me
- In law court two lawyers are fighting, but the lawyer who is giving evidences from the law book, he is accepted by the judge. And therefore, generally you will find, whenever we speak something, we give evidence from the sastra
- In our KC movement when he (who took second initiation) advances still further and is willing to give up this material world, he is given the sannyasa order. At that time he receives the title svami or gosvami, both of which mean - master of the senses
- In our Krsna consciousness movement when one is found to be regularly following these principles (no illicit sex, gambling, meat-eating & intoxication), he is given the first initiation (hari-nama), and he regularly chants at least sixteen rounds a day
- In reality, "What I am," that can be understood through devotional service, not by karma, jnana, yoga. Give this example, I mean to say, authoritative statement of Krsna, that bhaktya mam abhijanati - BG 18.55
- Is it not a service to the humanity to give real knowledge? But the service to the body is not neglected. Just like we are giving this knowledge to the world, it does not mean that we are starving, or anyone who comes to us, he will starve
- It is folly to be wise where ignorance is bliss -The whole world is in ignorance, so we are giving them wise instruction; they are thinking -These people are crazy men
- It is not a business firm. Just to give spiritual association, chance. Why you are going the street sankirtana? We are giving chance, - Come here, be saved
- It must be recognized that we are not just a religious sect. People are being kept in darkness, so we are trying our best to give this to the world; we must work in that spirit and become qualified
M
- Many people are saying that "Swamiji, we have to give food to the poor, starving." That's all right. You give, if you think. But according to our philosophy, nobody is starving. You show me one instance that one man is dying here out of starvation
- Mrinalini, Jadurani & all other girls who are so qualified, good-looking, intelligent, educated & seriously engaged in Krishna Consciousness, should always be given protection from the attack of maya
- My advice to you is that either you become a regular householder, giving 50% of your earnings to Krishna, 25% for family, and 25% for savings, or else you strictly follow the principles of brahmacari life
- My business is to chant the name of the Lord. So they (my students who are having spiritual names) are giving me chance to utter the name of the Lord
O
- Other humanitarian or welfare societies are trying to give some patchwork. They cannot give relief to the stringent laws of nature: birth, death, old age and disease. But we are giving the final cure of the disease of condition of material existence
- Our opening of different center means we are giving chance. So those who are inmates of the temple, they should be also such nice devotees that anyone who will come in the association of devotees, he will immediately develop a sense of devotion
- Our philosophy is not like that, that we give protection to the human being and send the cows to the slaughterhouse. No, that is not our philosophy
P
- People are falsely proud, therefore we approach them in a humble way... That also, we do not beg. We give something and take something, exchange, and give something which is appreciated by the greatest learned circle
- People followed the Ratha and experienced so much joy as they had never enjoyed at any time within recent memory. The reason is that we are giving people direct contact with Krishna, the Reservoir of all pleasure
- Please go on working cooperatively in this way and always keep in touch with the other GBC members. Such communication will give you spiritual strength to make the right decisions for pushing this Sankirtana movement
- Purpose of Krsna consciousness movement. We want to . . . We want to give to the human society the highest blessings, the most perfectional platform of life
S
- She (Anandamayi) is simply exploiting some women's sentiments, by giving them some deity and crying. And woman, they're simple. This way, she wanted to captivate donors
- Simply all you leaders there in India must cooperate with him nicely and give him confidence and advice how to manage the things in the best manner
- So if we simply give our aural reception to this transcendental sound, then there is immense profit. Immense profit. So we invite everyone to come here and take this advantage
- So our little humble attempt is to give them relief from this rascaldom civilization. That is Krsna consciousness movement. Krsna consciousness movement means to give little relief or little knowledge to the people in general
- So senses should be cured, and then you will be able to enjoy. That is our program. We are not stopping sense enjoyment; we are trying to give you real sense enjoyment
- So that highest position we are giving by Krsna consciousness. We are not training them to be first-class fools, second-class fools, third-class... No. First-class intelligent
- Sometime we used to give even the servants the same rice. So this man came. He complained, "Babu . . ." babu means master - "this rice is not suitable for us." That fine basmati rice, he did not like it
- Srimad-Bhagavatam. Vyasadeva has given us. We should study very carefully, and we have tried to give each and every word's meaning and the translation and the purport, consulting all the big, big acaryas
- Suppose we are conducting this KCM. Nobody is interested. Very few interested. But if we give some false hope that, "If you follow this path, then within six months you will become God, and you will be all-powerful" oh, so many people will come
T
- That practical proof we are giving, that these Europeans, Americans, they are simply chanting Hare Krsna and how they are coming out, this practical proof
- That process (taking Krsna) we are giving to everyone, without any discrimination. We have got students from all communities: Hindus, Muslim, Christian, Parsis and Africans. The process is so perfect. If you take the process, you will also understand
- The Europeans, Americans, they are not born in brahmana families, but we are giving and recognizing them as brahmanas because they are being qualified, and they are working
- The feeling which you had by becoming compassionate to the fallen bum is very good, but the best way to deliver a bum is to revive his dormant Krishna Consciousness. If you can do that then give the bums good food and shelter
- The whole human civilization is; and all the directors, they are not giving chance to know the value of life and how to conduct life. It is the first time, that we are giving the real idea of life. Otherwise whole world is in darkness
- The whole world is full of asuras, descendant of Hiranyakasipu, and it is very difficult. But if we give them chance to chant Hare Krsna mantra, gradually they will understand
- The younger section become attracted to this movement because we are giving some religious principle based on philosophy
- These informations are there in authorized Vedic literature. We can understand what is Krsna, what is God, what He is doing, what is His name, what is His father's name - everything we can give - in full detail. That is Krsna consciousness movement
- They (the people) know that there is God, but they do not know actually what is God. But this Krsna consciousness movement is giving, presenting, the Supreme Personality of Godhead direct: Here is God, Krsna. Here is God
- They are searching after God. We are giving God: "Here is God. Here is His name. Here is His address. Here is occupation. Here is His father's name, His mother's name." Everything there is. It is not bogus
- They go to hotel from miles together to take some palatable foodstuff - restaurant, hotel. And we cannot give nice krsna-prasadam? Why? Why you cannot give
- This is Krsna consciousness movement, that we are giving chance to the unfortunate. Everyone is unfortunate. Everyone is a rascal. We are giving chance how to become intelligent and fortunate. This is Krsna consciousness

- This Krsna consciousness movement is to give the greatest benefit to the human society to clear their brain, the rascal brain
- This Society (ISKCON) was started single-handedly, but because people are coming forward and dealing with the give - and - take policy, the Society is now expanding all over the world
- To take birth in such place is due to impious past so it is not easy for them to immediately accept our philosophy. Just give them chanting and prasadam
- To understand God is not so difficult or easy job. Only the fortunate, pious, nice people can understand God. Not ordinary. But we are giving facilities to everyone to understand God. That is our mission
W
- We are also giving our student position as brahmana, but if he remains a fool number one, then we are misusing our attempt. He should be very learned scholar. That should be the aim
- We are giving a message by which everyone can be happy in this life and next life also. Generally, all religious sects, they do not believe in the next life. Or even they believe, they have no clear idea of the next life
- We are giving all facility to the general populace to take to Krsna consciousness, and in order to fix the devotees in concentration on the service of the Lord, marriage is sometimes allowed
- We are giving Krsna consciousness. That is loving, real loving. We are giving him eternal life, eternal bliss. Unless we love them, why we are taking so much trouble?
- We are giving people an immense treasury of transcendental literature, translated into all the important languages of the world
- We are giving that information, how you can keep yourself eternal. This is the greatest gift to the human society
- We are giving the right path: "Be happy in this life and next life also." This is our mission. Para upakara: they are blindly following some ways of life
- We are giving them all important Vedic literature, translated into English and other. This is the greatest boon to make human life successful. But if the people want to remain in darkness, then what can we do
- We are not searching after the original consciousness, but we are giving to the people directly that "Here is the original source of everything, Krsna. Without your research work, you take it." That is our mission
- We are not that simply we are giving knowledge, but we are giving, we are inviting everyone, "Come, live with us peacefully, take Krsna prasadam and be Krsna conscious." This is our movement
- We are opening so many centers all over the world - we have already 102 centers - just to give opportunity to all classes of men to associate with devotees and develop your love for God. This is the purpose. And we have no other purpose
- We are trying to give this information (next life one should have better or eternal body) to the human society, but they are so callous, they are so bodily conscious, they are not very much serious about it
- We can become famous for such shows, and at the same time utilize them for giving people good information about what is the real goal of life and how to achieve it
- We can give you the name of the sun planet, the president of the sun planet, his address. We can give you the address of God, Krsna, His features, His activities. This is perfect knowledge. Simply vague idea, that is not knowledge
- We give all facilities to everyone without any distinction that - You come with us. Come in our temple, chant Hare Krsna mantra, and take little prasadam, refreshment, and gradually you become purified
- We have already given the names of four books compiled by Sanatana Gosvami. Similarly, Srila Rupa Gosvami has also compiled many books, which no one can even count
- We have come to distribute Krsna consciousness movement. We must tolerate and give this message to the people. Karunikah. Very merciful, in spite of all trouble
- We have given time, sixteen rounds. But you are not Haridasa Thakura that you'll be able to chant whole day and night. If without working, if you chant, that is the highest state. That you cannot do. Then you sleep, that's all
- We have to give the medicine just like horse is given medicine. Three men required to induce medicine to the mouth of the horse. So this is our duty, to inject Hare Krsna medicine
- We invite everyone, "Please come here, chant Hare Krsna mantra, dance with us, and when you are hungry, take some food. We are prepared to give you." So our program is very easy
- We offer prasadam, the same principle. A man does not know about Krsna. But he wants to eat. By eating, he'll be gradually Krsna conscious. Our business is to give opportunity to all forgotten souls to be engaged in Krsna consciousness, today or tomorrow
- We say that. We are not anxious to this daridra-narayana-seva. We are not. We give. Whatever we have got, we distribute prasadam. That's all. We are not concerned about their daridra-narayana-seva. That is not our business
- We shall take this opportunity to preach. "Crime, Why and What to Do?" We shall give all solution. We can arrange big, big meetings on this point, "Crime, Why and What to Do?" A very suitable heading it is
- We should give everyone chance how to serve Krsna. Then he will remain on the upper platform. Samatitya. Atitya mean transcending
- We worship Lord Siva as Vaisnava. We give respect to Vaisnavas. So why not Lord Siva? Lord Siva is a big Vaisnava
- What are ISKCON's future plans here? Will a temple be built? - Yes, temple is already there. Here is a temple. Unfortunately, nobody coming. What can I do? We are prepared to give this nice philosophy to everyone
- Whatever that will attract them. That I want. Krsna-prasadam. Don't waste; give them nice, palatable foodstuff. Give them one finest kachori, one nice samosa, two puris, they will be very glad
- When we give you book, we take, because we have to pay to the printers, to the press man. That is another thing. So far our words are concerned, our service is concerned, we don't charge anything. That is not our movement. That is free
- When you give me massaging, I say, "Do like this," similarly, when one is engaged in Krsna's service, from within He dictates, "Do like this. Do like this." So our business is how Krsna will accept our service
- While decorating the body with tilaka, we give protection to the body by chanting twelve names of Visnu. Although Govinda, or Lord Visnu, is one, He has different names and forms with which to act differently
- Why are Krsna students given spiritual name? - Just to remember Krsna
- Why do you accept these rascals as religious? That is your fault. Why should you stick to them, that they cannot teach what is real religion? So let us give you
- Why he should be given this business? He's such irresponsible man. He should not be given any responsible work. Our first business should see how he is advanced in devotion. We don't want so-called scholars
- Why not experiment this movement. The greatest socialist movement. If you want to get the socialistic idea, we can give you. Would you like to take?
Y
- Yadubara should be encouraged as he has given good service. Both his wife and himself are both serving nicely. I approve their work and they should be encouraged in all respects. In future we shall get more and more valuable services from them
- You do not try to be offensive, but because your past habit, you become offensive. Therefore ten kinds of offenses should be avoided. That we speak and give in list when initiation
- You must attention give to temple. When you have got the eyes to see Krsna everywhere, you may not require temple worship. But why do you try to imitate that? You have no eyes to see that
