- So long they (Mahatma Gandhi, Churchill or Hitler) were living, they were always full of anxiety, fighting with one another. Now they are not existing. What is the loss there? But unnecessarily they were busy, so without me, my country will be finished

- So long we have got this body, we must suffer. This is the truth. Asann api klesada asa dehah (SB 5.5.4). We are getting different types of bodies, tatha dehantara-praptih (BG 2.13). Each body is for a short period. It will not last forever
- So long we have got this false identification that "I am enjoyer," that is maya. We are not enjoyer. We are enjoyed. That is real philosophy
- So long we have got this human intelligence, we should utilize it for the highest perfectional stage of life. That is Krsna consciousness

- So long we keep ourself as: I am French man," "I am German man," "I am English man," "I am Indian man," or so many there are nationalities, there cannot be any fraternity, equality. We have come to the platform of Krsna consciousness, or brahma-bhutah
- So long we live, there are so many miserable conditions of life. This is called material existence
- So long we remain forgetful where our service should be given, that is called material life. When we come to that consciousness that, "I have to serve Krsna," that is spiritual life. That is difference between material life and spiritual life

- So long we shall remain mayar-dasa, we have to change this body one after another. It may be of higher standard or it may be of lower standard. That will depend on my work
- So long we shall travel on the chariot of the mind, mano-ratha, then there is no question of our being freed from anxiety. Therefore we have to give up this chariot of mind. The chariot of mind will not give us satisfaction
