- Most people want material opulence, but they do not know that Krsna is the proprietor of all opulence. That is their misfortune

O
- O King, no one can know the plan of the Lord (Sri Krsna). Even though great philosophers inquire exhaustively, they are bewildered
- One cannot know the Supreme Lord unless one is graced by the Lord Himself. Lord Krsna exhibited this specific mercy towards Arjuna and Uddhava while He was in the material world
- One may understand the science of the SPG from the Vedic literatures & thus become a devotee & worship Him within the regulative principles described in the scriptures, but one will not know in this way how Krsna is served by the residents of Vrajabhumi

- One who has no Vedic knowledge, who has not studied the Vedas from a bona fide spiritual master, does not know Krsna. Therefore he is a mudha. Such fools take Krsna to be an ordinary person (param bhavam ajanantah) They do not actually know what Krsna is
- One who understands Krsna from a bona fide spiritual master and from Vedic literature, who engages all his energy in Krsna consciousness, becomes a truly learned man. all others, who do not know Krsna properly, are but fools. BG 1972 purports
- Our so much so-called knowledge is nothing in comparison to Krishna's full knowledge. That is admitted by Brahma there in that verse, that people may say they know You very well, but so far I am concerned, I admit I do not know even a farthing of You!
P
- People are after so-called Vedantists, but they do not know Krsna, so-called Vedantist. But one who is actually Vedantist, he knows Krsna
- People become envious and ask - How is it possible to live so comfortably without working? How is it you have so many cars, bright faces & nice clothes? - Not knowing that Krsna looks after His devotees, such people become surprised & some become envious
- People who develop the nature of asuras like Ravana and Hiranyakasipu can never know Krsna, the Personality of Godhead, by challenging the authority of Godhead. But Sri Krsna cannot hide Himself from His pure devotees
- Persons with a poor fund of knowledge belittle the Personality of Godhead, Lord Krsna, not knowing His exalted position as the Lord of everything
S
- She (Yasoda) began to thank some other God, some devata. She did not know that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead
- Simply they bluff, because they have no real knowledge. Mayayapahrta-jnanah. That's a fact. If one, anyone, does not know Krsna, then he's a boka-loka
- So Krsna is also well known to them (westerners). But actually what is Krsna, the science of Krsna, they do not know. So this humble attempt is to just to present the science of Krsna to them
- Sometimes Krsna's activities and attractive features are misinterpreted by gross materialists who accuse Him of being immoral because He danced with the gopis, but such an accusation results from not knowing that Krsna is beyond this material world
- Sometimes so-called scholars, not knowing the constitutional position of Krsna, mislead people by saying that the Krsna within is different from the Krsna without
- Such people (foolish rascals) do not know that Krsna can eat just by seeing, for He can do anything with any part of His transcendental body
T
- The contamination of the material world does not affect the Supreme Godhead. Krsna therefore says in the Bhagavad-gita that those who are rascals and fools think of Him as an ordinary human being, not knowing His param bhavam
- The only thing is we are rotting in this material world because we do not know Krsna
- The so-called Mayavadi Vedantis do not know who Krsna is; therefore their title of Vedanti, or "knower of Vedanta philosophy," is simply a pretension
- The Supreme Lord Krsna can be known by persons who are in a relationship with Him through the discharge of devotional service, like Arjuna and his successors. Persons of demonic or atheistic mentality cannot know Krsna. BG 1972 purports
- The ultimate sanction, therefore, is Krsna. Those who are foolish do not know this, and therefore they are called mudha, rascals
- The whole system is to understand Krsna. But one does not know Krsna, so he remains mudha, and therefore all his attempt is baffled
- The word ajita is significant here. The Personality of Godhead, Sri Krsna, is known as Ajita, or unconquerable, and He is so in every respect. No one can know His actual position. He is unconquerable by knowledge also
- The Yadus, or the residents of Dvaraka, however, could know Lord Krsna as Vasudeva, or the Supersoul living everywhere, but not as the Supreme Lord
- There are foolish persons who take Him (Krsna) to be an ordinary man, not knowing the essence of His transcendental features. In BG (9.11) the Lord affirms this: avajananti mam mudha, manusim tanum asritam, param bhavam ajananto, mama bhuta-mahesvaram
- They (cowherd boys) did not know Krsna is God, the Supreme Person. They only knew that Krsna is wonderful, that's all. And the more they perceived Krsna's wonderful activities, the more their love increased. "Perhaps He may be a demigod," they thought
- They (cowherd boys) do not know that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, for that is the nature of vrndavana-lila, Krsna's pastimes in the village of Vrndavana
- They (foolish persons) do not know that Krsna's body is a symbol of complete knowledge and bliss, that He is the proprietor of everything that be and that He can award liberation to anyone. BG 1972 purports
- They (gopis, young girls) did not know that Krsna is God, but they were attracted by Krsna, by Krsna's exquisite beauty. Kama, krodha. They were attracted. Similarly, Kamsa was attracted to Krsna by krodha, krodha, the anger
- They (the impersonalists) are comparing Krsna with themself. As he is a person, similarly, Krsna is a person. He does not know
- They do not know anything. They do not know even that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. But they do not like to love anybody than Krsna. This is their only qualification
- This fearful anxiety exists because we do not know Krsna, the Supreme Lord, the supreme controller. Instead, we have other conceptions, and therefore we are always anxious
- This lack of knowledge (knowing that Krsna is the Supersoul but not the Original Personality of Godhead) was not due to their (the Yadavas) insufficient erudition; it was due to their misfortune
- Those who do not know Krsna are in illusion, and so knowledge of Krsna is liberation, and ignorance of Him is bondage. BG 1972 purports
- Thousands of Europeans & Americans, say a few years ago - they did not know what is Krsna. But now you ask them, they will explain. They are not foolish, they are not uneducated. Unless they are situated in the spiritual platform, how they are sticking
- Thousands of people for thousands of years, reading Bhagavad-gita, but they do not know Krsna. Is it not a fact? Yes. So because they are not going through the proper channels
U
- Unintelligent men, who do not know Me perfectly, think that I, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, was impersonal before and have now assumed this personality. Due to their small knowledge, they do not know My higher nature

- Unless one practices devotional service to the Lord, one cannot know Krsna as He is (tattvatah), even though one is a great scholar or philosopher
W
- We do not know that Krsna is our original father and that we are all His sons. The American is my brother, the Indian is my brother, the Chinese is my brother. Therefore, we have to develop Krsna consciousness
- We have no Krsna consciousness. We do not know that Krsna is our original father and that we are all His sons. The tree is my brother, the ant is my brother, the bull is my brother
- 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
- When Krsna appeared on earth, not everyone knew that He was the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Although when there was need He proved Himself the Supreme Godhead, He generally appeared to be just like an ordinary human being
- When Lord Sri Krsna was personally present in the mortal world in His eternal, blissful form of Syamasundara, those who were not pure devotees of the Lord could not recognize Him or know His glories
- When rascals (mudhas) see that Krsna acts exactly like a human being, they deride the transcendental form of the Lord because they do not know the param bhavam, His transcendental form and activities
