A
- Accepting that Krishna is everything, what is aimed by the Ram Krishna Mission or by the Maharishi group is also Krishna; but Krishna says that although everything is expansion of Himself, He is not in everything
- Actually Krsna is everything, but at that time, expressing extreme love and affection, they (the mothers of the cowherd boys) took special pleasure in feeding Krsna, the Parabrahman - SB 10.13.22
- Actually Krsna is Krsna, and at the same time He is everything. We can understand this by bhakti, but not by any other process. When a bhakta sees a tree, he sees Krsna. As explained in Caitanya-caritamrta - CC Madhya 8.274
- After many attempts to acquire knowledge, one understands that the origin of everything is Krsna
- After many, many births of rascaldom, when he comes to Krsna and surrenders, "Yes. Vasudevah sarvam iti (BG 7.19). He is everything," that is real knowledge
- After many, many births' struggling, when one comes to real perfection of knowledge, he surrenders to Krsna. Why? Vasudevah sarvam iti sa mahatma sudurlabhah (BG 7.19). Because at that time he understands perfectly that Vasudeva, Krsna, is everything
- After scrutinizingly studying all the process of self-realization or transcendental realization, when one comes to the perfectional point, he understands that vasudevah sarvam iti: (BG 7.19) Vasudeva, Krsna, is everything
- Akrura plainly informed Satadhanva that he would always offer his most respectful obeisances to Krsna, the Supersoul of everything created and the original cause of all causes
- All states of being-be they of goodness, passion or ignorance-are manifested by My energy. I am, in one sense, everything - but I am independant. I am not under the modes of this material nature. BG 7.12 - 1972
- All these (everything is performed by Krsna perfectly) statements prove without any question that the Lord's activities, forms & deeds are all inconceivable to our limited thinking power & because He is inconceivably powerful, everything's possible in Him
- All-round. It is not one-sided, that we are thinking of Krsna. Thinking of Krsna means thinking of everything, because Krsna is everything. Without Krsna, there is no other thing
- Although He is the supreme cause, the cause of all causes, He is still parama, transcendental, and His form is sac-cid-ananda, eternal, spiritual bliss. Krsna is the shelter of everything, and this is the verdict of all scripture
- Anything about Krsna is Krsna. This is called absolute knowledge. So either you chant the Krsna's name or you worship Krsna's form - everything is Krsna
- As said in Caitanya-caritamrta (CC Madhya 22.62):krsne bhakti kaile sarva-karma krta haya. When one comes to the conclusion that Krsna is everything by worshiping or by rendering devotional service unto Krsna, one actually becomes perfect in all respects
B
- Because Krsna is everything, that does not mean I have to worship the dog
- Because we are covered by the material modes of nature, He (Krsna) is very difficult for us to understand unless He reveals Himself to us. Therefore it is better for us to acknowledge that He is everything and offer obeisances unto His lotus feet
- Because You (Krsna) are everything and are therefore the Supreme Brahman, we (Nalakuvara and Manigriva) simply offer our respectful obeisances unto You - SB 10.10.33
- Before coming to this understanding (Krsna is everything), one has no knowledge. His so-called understanding is simply misunderstanding. Brahmeti paramatmeti bhagavan iti sabdyate
- Brahma said, "Actually, You alone are everything - creator, maintainer and annihilator. Similarly, You expand Yourself in different incarnations: among the demigods You incarnate as Vamanadeva, among the great sages You incarnate as Parasurama"
- Brahma said, "You are the original amrta (indestructible nectar of immortality). As confirmed in the Vedas, amrtam sasvatam brahma. Brahman is the eternal, the supreme origin of everything, who has no birth or death"
- Bring Krsna, and then everything will be value. Otherwise, all zero. You may be proud of so-called material advancement. It is zero, because it will not save you, because tatha dehantara-praptih: you have to change your body
- By assimilating the instructions of the Bhagavad-gita, one is sure to be released from such bewilderment because real knowledge is knowledge that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vasudeva, Lord Krsna, is everything, including one's self
D
- Devanam means in the beginning there was Brahma, Visnu, Mahesvara. And Krsna is adi of these devas also. Aham adir hi devanam. Aham sarvasya prabhavo: "Everything has emanated from Me"
- Do not think, "Oh, here is a stone Krsna." Krsna is everything, and therefore Krsna is stone also, but He is not the kind of stone that cannot act
E
- Even though Krsna is the cause of everything, you should accept what Krsna wants. Not that because He is the cause of everything, everything should be accepted
- Everything in the material world has a certain flavor or fragrance, as the flavor & fragrance in a flower, or in the earth, in water, in fire, in air, etc. The uncontaminated flavor, the original flavor, which permeates everything, is Krsna. BG 1972 pur
- Everything is energy of God, Krsna, but this material world means we are missing Krsna. Wherefrom this energy has come? That point we are missing
- Everything is Krsna, and everything depends on Krsna, but He is not perceived in the material energy, and therefore it is called maya, or illusion
- Everything is resting on the Supreme Personality of Godhead; therefore He is the ultimate rest. Nidhanam means that everything, even the Brahman effulgence, rests on the Supreme Personality of Godhead Krsna. BG 1972 purports
- Everything was Krsna. The calves, the cowherd boys and their maintainer Himself were all Krsna. In other words, Krsna expanded Himself in varieties of calves and cowherd boys and continued His pastimes uninterrupted for one year
F
- For one who becomes Krsna conscious, the distinction between material and spiritual varieties does not exist. An advanced devotee like Prahlada Maharaja sees everything as one - Krsna
- For one who sees Me everywhere and sees everything in Me, I am never lost, nor is he ever lost to Me
- For the devotee this world becomes transformed, surcharged with the existence of Krsna in everything. The illusory potency recedes into oblivion, and this world takes on the characteristics of the spiritual world, Vaikuntha
- For the fortunate person who has taken shelter of Krsna as everything, liberation is already there. He is no longer in the material world. Whoever is engaged in the devotional service of Krsna is already on the brahma-bhuta, or spiritual, platform
- For the paramahamsa, Krsna is everything, but for the materialist, women and money are everything
H
- He (Krsna) is spread throughout the creation as everything, but still He is not everything. The philosophy recommended by Lord Caitanya is that He is simultaneously one and different
- He is celebrated in the Vedic literature. Everything is Krsna, and without Him there is no existence. He is the root of all understanding, and He is that which is understood by all words
- How can he surrender? He knows that Vasudeva, Krsna, is everything. Whatever we see is simply a manifestation of the energy of Vasudeva. One must be convinced on this point, and then he becomes a devotee
I
- I (Krsna) am the source of all spiritual and material worlds. Everything emanates from Me. The wise who perfectly know this engage in My devotional service and worship Me with all their hearts
- I am so pleased to learn that you are studying arithmetic so quickly. Five plus five is equal to ten. Two plus two is equal to four. So Krishna plus everything is Vrndavana. Do not forget Krishna, and you shall always be in Vrndavana
- "I am the source of all spiritual and material worlds." Krsna is the root of everything; therefore rendering service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna (krsna-seva), means automatically serving all the demigods
- If from the material platform one could understand Krsna, then, since Krsna is everything (sarvam khalv idam brahma), one could understand Krsna by seeing anything within this material world. But that is not possible
- If he actually becomes wise, jnanavan, then he understands that only Krsna is everything. Vasudevah sarvam iti sa mahatma sudurlabhah (BG 7.19). That is real understanding
- If one engages in the service of Vasudeva, Krsna, this knowledge comes, and one becomes a mahatma. A mahatma is one who realizes that Krsna is everything
- If we desire this (be engaged in Krsna's service birth after birth), Krsna will give us the opportunity. After all, Krsna is everything. He is brahma-jyotir and Paramatma also
- If you know what is milk, then you know what is butter, what is cheese, what is yogurt, everything, because everything is milk product. So if you know Krsna, everything is Krsna product, so you know everything. That is universal knowledge
- If you understand Krsna, if you understand the Supreme Absolute Truth, then there will be nothing unknown. Everything will be known because He is everything
- In Bhagavad-gita Krsna goes on to explain: vasudevah sarvam iti sa mahatma su-durlabhah (BG 7.19). when one understands that Vasudeva, Krsna, is everything, then that is knowledge. But such a mahatma is very rare
- In Bhagavad-gita Krsna says that after many births, when one comes to the platform of real knowledge, he "surrenders unto Me." Why is this? Vasudevah sarvam iti. The wise man realizes that - Vasudeva (Krsna) is everything
- In the paramahamsa stage of life, one fully realizes Krsna as everything. When one understands fully that Krsna is everything and that Krsna consciousness is the highest perfection of life, he becomes a paramahamsa, or mahatma
- In the sruti mantra it is said that the Supreme Brahman has nothing to do. No one is equal to or greater than Him (Krsna). He has manifold energies, and everything is performed by Him perfectly by automatic knowledge, strength and activity
- In this verse He (Lord Krsna) is described as the original source of everything, even our body, senses, mind, activities, prowess, bodily strength, mental strength and determination for securing the necessities of life
- Instead of trying to understand Krsna in detail, it is better to offer our respectful obeisances unto Him, for He is the origin of everything and He is everything
- It (Krsna consciousness) is the stage beyond self-realization at which the devotee becomes one with Krsna in the sense that Krsna becomes everything for the devotee, and the devotee becomes full in loving Krsna. BG 1972 purports
- It is not very easy, for only after many births of struggle does one come to his real perfection and surrender unto Krsna. At this time he understands perfectly that Vasudeva, Krsna, is everything
K
- Krsna can be understood as the mystic power in everything
- Krsna consciousness movement is not a manufactured movement. It is simply based on this Bhagavad-gita - Krsna. Bhagavad-gita means Krsna. Krsna, everything Krsna. That is Krsna consciousness. We are simply placing Bhagavad-gita as it is
- Krsna has become everything. After Brahma has stolen the original cowherds boys and cows and calves, Krsna has expanded Himself. So on account of Krsna's expansion, the cowherdsmen got a special attraction
- Krsna is absolute. For me there is external, internal, but for Krsna there is no external, internal because His energy... The external energy is also His energy, and internal is His energy. Therefore He's everything
- Krsna is air. Krsna is fire. Krsna is earth. Krsna is water. Krsna is sky. Krsna is everything. Even the small, very, very minute particle, atom - that is also Krsna. So if we always remember like that, our Krsna consciousness will be very, very strong
- Krsna is everything. Suppose I if I say, "I am everything in this, my institution," does it mean I have lost my personality?
- Krsna is everything. The Mayavadis, the impersonalists, see our Deities here and say, - Oh, they have installed some wooden forms, and they are worshiping them as God
- Krsna is the origin of all visnu-tattvas, including Maha-Visnu, Garbhodakasayi Visnu and Ksirodakasayi Visnu. He is the ultimate goal of Vaisnava philosophy. Everything emanates from Him
- Krsna is the origin. Therefore Krsna says, aham sarvasya prabhavah. Sarvasya means even this Maha-Visnu, Garbhodakasayi Visnu, Ksirodakasayi Visnu, Narayana, Sankarsana, Aniruddha, Pradyumna - everything
- Krsna is the reservoir of all transcendental qualities. He is like a mine of gems. He is expert at everything, very intelligent and sober, and He is the summit of all transcendental humors
- Krsna is the root of everything. If He is pleased, everyone will be pleased
- Krsna proved that He is everything, that He can become everything, but that still He is personally different from everything
- Krsna says that everything depends on His energy, and yet He is not everywhere
- Krsna says that such a great soul (who realizes that Vasudeva (Krsna) is everything) is rarely found. Why is this
- Krsna says, "Prior to the cosmic creation, only I exist, and no phenomena exist, either gross, subtle or primordial. After creation, only I exist in everything, and after annihilation, only I remain eternally"
- Krsna's name is also Krsna. Krsna's fame is also Krsna. Krsna's entourage is also Krsna. Krsna and everything related with Krsna which gives stimulation to love of Krsna are all Krsna, but for our understanding these items can be considered separately
- Krsna, I forgot You so long. Now I understand that You are everything - That is knowledge. That is real knowledge
L
- Learned brahmanas know (on the basis of the Vedic statement sarvam khalv idam brahma) that You (Lord Krsna) are everything and that this cosmic manifestation, in its gross and subtle aspects, is Your form - SB 10.10.29
- Lord Krsna is everything to the unalloyed devotees like the Pandavas
- Lord Krsna says in the BG (10.8), aham sarvasya prabhavo mattah sarvam pravartate: "I am the source of all spiritual and material worlds. Everything emanates from Me." Krsna, therefore, is the original cause of everything (sarva-karana-karanam) - BS 5.1
- Lord Siva said, "My Lord, You (Krsna) are actually the dearmost Supersoul of all living entities and the supreme controller of everything"
M
- Misconception of duality is completely removed from the mind of Bhismadeva, and he is now satisfied that it is Lord Sri Krsna only who is all in all in everything
- My Lord (Krsna), Your appearance, existence and disappearance are beyond the influence of the material qualities. Because Your Lordship is the Supreme Brahman and the controller of everything, there is nothing inconceivable or contradictory in You
N
- Nalakuvara & Manigriva said: You are the supreme director of all activities of all living entities. Although You are in the midst of everything which is under the spell of the material modes of nature, You are not affected by such contaminated qualities
- Not only must one come to the conclusion that Krsna is everything, but he must remain fixed in this realization. This is the highest perfection of life, and it is this perfection that King Malayadhvaja attained at the end
- Nothing can exist without Krsna, and Krsna is the Lord of everything - this is the basic principle of Krsna consciousness. BG 1972 purports
O
- On this earth we have created so many dharmas - Hindu dharma, Muslim dharma, Christian dharma. These are all manufactured dharmas, but real dharma is attained when we come to the conclusion that Sri Krsna is everything
- One has to approach the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, as it is stated in Bhagavad-gita: After many, many births, one approaches the Supreme Person, Krsna, and surrenders unto Him, knowing that He is everything
- One is expected to understand these three formulas of knowledge concerning the Supreme Lord - that He is the supreme enjoyer, that He is the proprietor of everything, and that He is the best well-wisher and friend of everyone
- One should not misunderstand that because everything is Krsna, Krsna has no personal identity. Krsna is so full that in spite of keeping Himself separate from everything by His energy, He is everything
- One who can come to understand that Krsna is the root of everything, the origin of everything, can understand the meaning of isvarah paramah krsnah (Bs. 5.1) - Krsna is the supreme controller
- One who knows Krsna science understands that Krsna is everything and therefore can appear in everything
- One who thinks that everything is maya instead of thinking that everything is Krsna is called an aparadhi, or offender
R
- Real knowledge is knowledge that the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Vasudeva, Lord Krsna, is everything, including one's self
- Realizing that Vasudeva is the root of everything - mam prapadyate - he (one who through many years of research comes to realize the Absolute Truth, he concludes - Vasudeva (Krsna) is all that is) surrenders
- Rudra is stated to be the son of Brahma. So Brahma is the son, or born out of the lotus flower from the abdomen of Visnu. Visnu is expansion of Krsna. In this way Krsna is the origin of everything. That is a fact
- Rukmini continued, "You (Krsna) have described Yourself as penniless, but this condition is not poverty. Since there is nothing in existence but You, You do not need to possess anything - You Yourself are everything"
S
- Sadhu is always in good habit. But due to past practice, sometimes we may see some discrepancy. You can find out some fault. But Krsna says that, "Never mind there is some fault. Still, he is sadhu." "Why?" - He has taken Me as everything
- Sarvam khalv idam brahma means that everything is Lord Krsna in the sense that everything is His energy. That is the vision of the maha-bhagavatas. They see everything in relation to Krsna
- Similarly, the dictaphone or any other machine must be used. Our vision is that Krsna is everything. Krsna is the cause and effect, and nothing belongs to us. Krsna's things must be used in the service of Krsna. That is our vision
- Since Krsna and His energies are identical, everything is Krsna indirectly
- Since the Lord is the supreme enjoyer of everything in or outside the universe, it is happiness to be employed by Him
- Since You (Krsna) are the Supreme Brahman, everything is existing within You, and since all the activities of material nature are controlled by Your Lordship, none of these activities affect You
- So long one does not come to this point (Krsna is everything), it is to be understood that he has no shelter. And because he has no shelter, he has to come down again. Again to the opening of hospital and giving medicine
- So long you are trying to encroach upon Krsna's jurisdiction - everything is Krsna's jurisdiction, but you are falsely trying to enjoy - that is disease. So this human life specially meant for understanding this truth
- Sometimes, in order to preach, we have to accept many material activities, but we should remember that everything is for Krsna. If we remember this, there is no chance of our being victimized by material activities
- Srimati Kunti said: O Krsna, I offer my obeisances unto You because You are the original personality and are unaffected by the qualities of the material world. You are existing both within and without everything, yet You are invisible to all
T
- The active principle of everything is Krsna, and highly elevated transcendentalists see everything in connection with Him
- The best way to show mercy is to spread Krsna consciousness. The entire world is suffering for want of this knowledge. People should know that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the original cause of everything
- The Bhagavad-gita, which was imparted 5,000 years ago, is still being read repeatedly by many, many men, and still new light is always being found in it. Therefore, Krsna & His name, fame, qualities - & everything in relationship with Him - is ever-fresh
- The conception of the falsity of this material world is due to a lack of knowledge, but a person advanced in Krsna consciousness sees the Supreme Personality of Godhead in everything
- The devotees of Krsna, by dint of their surrendering unto Him and their unalloyed devotion, can know that He is the Absolute Person and that everything emanates from Him
- The Earth personified continued, "Everything animate and inanimate in this phenomenal world - rests upon You (Krsna). Since everything is produced of You, nothing can be separate from You"
- The first-class yogi takes Krsna as everything - priya, suta, sakha, guru, everything. This is real bhakti
- The impersonalists argue that Krsna Himself has been transformed into many and that therefore everything is Krsna and worship of anything is worship of Him
- The living entities are also part and parcel of Visnu, who has various energies (parasya saktir vividhaiva sruyate svabhaviki jnana-bala-kriya ca (CC Madhya 13.65, purport)). Visnu, or Krsna, is therefore everything
- The Lord (Krsna) was for them (the Pandavas) the Supreme Lord, the spiritual master, the worshipable Deity, the guide, the chariot driver, the friend, the servant, the messenger and everything they could conceive of
- The Mayavadi philosopher thinks that if Krsna has become everything, then where is the possibility of Krsna here, apart? This is complete rascaldom because it is thinking in a material way. There is no spiritual knowledge
- The Mayavadi philosophers say that if Krsna has become everything, there is no question of Krsna as an entity or a person. This is a materialistic idea
- The Mayavadi philosophers think that if Krsna is everything, then Krsna's separate identity is lost. That is material thinking
- The members of the Yadu dynasty knew that Lord Sri Krsna is everything, and all of them intended to return to Lord Krsna after He had finished His transcendental pastimes on the earth
- The Nagapatnis said: The entire time force is existing in You, and You are therefore the seer and the embodiment of total time in the shape of past, present and future, month, day, hour, moment - everything
- The object of the impersonalist is the brahma-jyoti, the impersonal effulgence of the Supreme, but Krsna is the source of that effulgence. Therefore Krsna is everything (brahmeti paramatmeti bhagavan iti sabdyate) - SB 1.2.11
- The Personality of Godhead Sri Krsna is the shelter and abode of everything. All the universes rest in His body
- The point is to know Krsna, Vasudeva, as everything and surrender unto Him. Karmis do not know this
- The Supreme Personality of Godhead Lord Krsna is the ultimate goal, the cause of all causes. He is the asraya, or the final rest of everything
- The ultimate end of philosophical speculation, then, must be Krsna, with the understanding that Krsna is everything, the cause of all causes, and that one should therefore surrender unto Him
- The wives of Kamsa and his brothers said, "We know that Krsna is the S P of Godhead. He is the supreme master and supreme enjoyer of everything; therefore, one who neglects His authority can never be happy, and ultimately, as you have, he meets death"
- There are many varieties of philosophers trying to search for the ultimate cause under different names and forms, but they are unable to find the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, who explains in Bhagavad-gita that He is the origin of everything
- There is no question of focus or no focus. One who sees Krsna, he sees everything. Yasmin vijnate sarvam evam vijnatam bhavanti. There is no question of imagination. This is fact
- They (the living being, Brahman and Paramatma) are all interlinked with one another, or interdependent factors; thus in the ultimate issue the Lord is the summum bonum and therefore the vital principle of everything
- This (Krsna is everything) enlightenment is attained by the great mahatmas or devotees, as it is stated in Bhagavad-gita (BG 7.19) that Vasudeva is all in all in everything and that there is no existence of anything without Vasudeva
- This teaching is imparted by the Lord Himself in the pages of the Bhagavad-gita, in which it is clearly described that the Lord (Sri Krsna) is everything, and that to surrender unto Him solely and wholly makes one the most perfectly pious man
- Those who are striving to acquire knowledge - after many, many births, when actually by the grace of God and by the grace of a devotee they come to knowledge, then such persons agree, - Oh, vasudevah sarvam iti: (BG 7.19) Krsna is everything
- Those who really seek the Absolute Truth come to the understanding that Krsna is everything (vasudevah samam iti). Such great souls are very rare. Nonetheless, if one studies the entire Bhagavad-gita as it is, Krsna is very easy to understand
- To come to the conclusion of Krsna consciousness and remain fixed in the realization that Krsna is everything, as well as render service unto Krsna, are characteristics of the perfectional stage
U
- Ultimately, it is Krsna who is pleasing and all-attractive. He is the Supersoul of everything. And in order to give us this information, Krsna descends and tells us that the all-attractive center is He Himself
- Understanding this (Krsna is all that is), the wise man will surrender immediately and not wait to take many, many births. He understands that this information is given by the Supreme Lord out of His infinite mercy on the conditioned souls
- Unlimited planets float in the sky just like atoms, and great Vedantists, who are engaged in research to find You, discover that everything is different from You (Krsna). Thus they finally decide that You are everything. (SB 10.87.41)
V
- Vasudeva said, "Since You (Krsna and Balarama) are the supreme cause of everything, the interactions of the material manifestation - birth, growth, existence, transformation, deterioration and annihilation - are all absent in You"
- Vasudeva, or Lord Sri Krsna, is the cause of all causes. Everything that exists emanates from the Lord
- Vasudeva, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, is everything, and one who knows this is the greatest of all transcendentalists
- Vasudevah sarvam iti: "Krsna, You are everything. So I have come. Accept me. I am now fully surrendered unto You, and You control me. I am controlled
- Visnu is the origin of everything, and there is no difference between Lord Visnu and Lord Krsna because both of Them are visnu-tattva
W
- We are being led by material consciousness, but as soon as we transfer all consciousness to Krsna's activities and realize that Krsna is everything, then we attain real knowledge. BG 1972 purports
- We can see stone, metal, wood, and other elements, and because Krsna is everything, to be visible to our imperfect eyes He appears in a form of these elements. It is not that Krsna is stone or that we are worshiping stone
- What else is there to say about the residential house of the Pandavas? Sri Krsna, the Lord of everything, acted as your minister. He used to enter that house as if it were His own, and He did not take any care of Duryodhana's house
- What is the use of this material husband? Make Krsna husband. Krsna's prepared to become everything - love Him as husband, love Him as son, love Him, friend. Krsna is prepared
- What type of surrender is recommended? Surrender in full knowledge - when one comes to the perfectional point he must understand that Vasudeva, Krsna, is everything. This is also confirmed in Brahma-samhita - 5.1
- When he understands, "Oh, Vasudeva, Krsna, is the origin or everything," that is real jnana. That is real jnana
- When one realizes the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Sri Krsna, in full potency after the removal of the hiranmaya-patra, one realizes vasudevah sarvam iti: (7.19) Lord Sri Krsna, who is known as Vasudeva, is everything-Brahman, Paramatma and Bhagavan
- When the living entities forget Krsna, they are in this material world. Krsna means His name, His form, His abode, His pastimes - everything
- When the wise man actually becomes wise after many births and whimsical attempts at self-realization, he surrenders unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna. Such a mahatma, or learned person, knows that Krsna, Vasudeva, is everything
- Within his mind (Kaliya), however, he finally began to understand that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and he surrendered unto Him. He realized that Krsna is the Supreme Lord, the master of everything
Y
- You become the greatest mahatma: "Oh, Krsna is everything." Then you surrender. You have to surrender-today or tomorrow or many millions of births after. You have to do that. Otherwise, you'll be troubled by the laws of material nature
- You have to come to this stage, vasudeva sarvam iti, fully, firmly convinced that "Vasudeva is my life. Vasudeva is everything. Krsna is my life." And the highest perfection is visible in the Vrndavana atmosphere, especially by the gopis
- You have to learn how to contact Krsna everywhere in everything. That is explained in the system of yoga. Krsna consciousness is also yoga, the perfect yoga, the highest of all yogic systems
