C
- Caitanya Mahaprabhu has said, "Any rascal" - of course, "rascal" he did not say; I say - that. "Anyone who considers the body of Krsna is prakrta" - prakrta means material - that is the greatest offense

- He concluded that this mystical change must have been caused by Krsna, whom Balarama considered His worshipable Personality of Godhead. He thought, "It was arranged by Krsna, and even I could not check its mystic power"
- His (Krsna's) body is sac-cid-ananda-vigraha (Bs. 5.1), completely spiritual. There is no material contamination in His body, and one should not consider His body a lump of flesh and bones

- In Srimad-Bhagavatam (SB 3.25.38) the Lord says: Persons who are satisfied with the idea of becoming My adherents alone. They consider that I am their soul, I am their God, and I am their supreme goal. My dear mother, time does not act on such devotees

- This verse (CC Madhya 19.204) is quoted from Srimad-Bhagavatam (SB 10.8.45). Those who are spiritually advanced forget Krsna’s opulence by the mercy of yogamaya. For instance, mother Yasoda considered Krsna an ordinary child

- Those who are in search of knowledge also speculate on Krsna and consider Him to be less important than the universal form of the Supreme.
