- They are thinking, those who have no vision for self-realization, they are thinking, deha apatya-kalatra adi. Deha means "this body," and apatya means "children."Kalatra means "wife."Adi, because we begin our lives with these things
- This chanting and hearing process should be increased. One should try to become sinless and try to make friendship with God. Then our life will be successful

W
- We are born ignorant. And if we are educated more, more, more into the platform of ignorance, then our life is all defeat
- We are changing our forms of life many, many million times, but the time is there. So the calculation of past, present, future is relative according to the duration of my life
- We are demons, and therefore we take pleasure in so-called material activities. And that means we are doomed. We should stop this nonsense and take to the principles of nivrtti-marga. Then our life will be success
- We are experiencing in our this life. It is taking change so swiftly that we cannot understand how the body is changing, but it is changing. So similarly, this body will change, tatha dehantara-praptih
- We are in this age very much irresponsible. First of all, our life is very short; we are not living for many days. Our forefathers lived for a hundred years at least, but we are living fifty, sixty, average

- We are very proud that we are happy and are improving our civilization. The result, however, is that although we try to enjoy material life, the duration of our life is shortened

- We have forgotten our relationship with God. Therefore our life is problematic. We are facing so many problems. So again, if we revive our original consciousness, then we shall become happy
- We have missed the real point, that our life is meant for God-realization. We are simply increasing botheration
- We have to approach a person who has seen the truth in reality. Then our life is success. That is the Vedic injunction
