- A living being can attain godly qualities to a large extent, but he cannot become God, whereas Krsna, without undergoing any type of penance, is God always, either in the lap of His mother or growing up or at any stage of growth
- A person who always desires to serve Krsna is interested in ways to convince people that there is a Supreme Personality of Godhead & that the Supreme Personality of Godhead is Krsna. That is his ambition. It doesn't matter whether he is in heaven or hell
- A suddha-bhakta is desireless because he is simply happy serving Krsna. He does not know or even care whether Krsna is God or not; he just wants to love Krsna. Nor is he concerned with the fact that Krsna is omnipotent or that He is all-pervasive
- A Vaisnava is by nature very humble. He never says, "I am the Supreme; I have become God." Krsna says, "I am God. Worship Me." The Vaisnava says, - Krsna is God. Worship Krsna

- Actually, we are teaching the science of God; we are teaching how to develop our dormant propensity to love God
- After instructing Arjuna, Krsna will ask him, "Now what you want to do?" Because Krsna does not force. Krsna says that, "You surrender unto Me." He does not force that, "You must surrender. I am God. You are My part and parcel." No, He'll never say that
- After much deliberation and consideration, when one has attained the perfection of knowledge, one comes to the conclusion that Krsna, or God, is the original cause of all causes

- All one has to do is bow down before Krsna with faith and say, "My Lord Krsna, I was forgetful of You for so long, for so many lives. Now I have come to consciousness of You. please accept me." That is all

- Although it is simply dream, they can never become, but they are envious that, - Why Krsna should be God? I have got so many gods
- Although Krsna is God, He incarnates many, many times. Arjuna, being a living entity, also takes his birth many, many times
- An analogy will help us understand the distincion between ourselves and God - CC Intro
- Another meaning of the word yoga is "plus." At the present moment we are minus God, or minus the Supreme. When we add Krsna - or God - to our lives, this human form of life becomes perfect
- As far as Krsna is concerned, every Vedic authority has accepted Him as God. When He was present on earth, His activities displayed were superhuman. If one does not believe this, it is to be concluded that he will not believe whatever evidence is given
- As far as Krsna is concerned, He is God always, either as a child on the lap of His mother, or as the coverer of the universe, Vamanadeva. He does not require to become God by undergoing severe penances, although some men think of becoming God that way
- As in this body the stomach is the enjoyer, the central figure of the whole cosmic manifestation, material or spiritual, is Krsna, God. He is the enjoyer. We can understand this just by considering our own bodies
- Asakti is also not attained very easily, but there is a process. If we follow the process, as recommended by the authorities, then there is way. And one who is serious to understand God, or Krsna, they must follow the methods prescribed by the mahajanas
- At the present moment Krsna, in the BG, wanted: sarva-dharman parityajya. Krsna wanted Arjuna - Arjuna means everyone - that they should surrender to Krsna and be engaged in the service of Krsna. So when we speak of Krsna, means God, the SPG
B
- Because Krsna comes down as human being, we, due to our lack of knowledge, poor fund of knowledge, we think Krsna is as good as we are. But actually it is not. Krsna is God. We are ordinary living entities
- Because Krsna was God, He demanded (BG 18.66): "Abandon all varieties of religion and just surrender unto Me." But people misunderstood Him. Therefore Krsna again came as a guru and taught people how to surrender to Krsna
- Because You (Krsna) know yourself, what You are. Nobody knows. - Therefore to understand Krsna, or God, is to accept whatever is spoken in the Bhagavad-gita. That is real understanding
- Behind this material, big material nature, cosmic manifestation, there is God. That is Krsna, and accepted by all authorities. We have to accept things which is accepted by authorities
- Bhagavatah refers to Lord Visnu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Supreme Godhead is Krsna; from Him comes the first expansion, Baladeva, and from Baladeva come Sankarsana, Aniruddha and many other forms, followed by the purusa-avataras

D
- Devotees like Brahma, Narada, Vyasadeva and Sukadeva Gosvami are directly servants of Krsna, and one who becomes a servant of Narada, Vyasadeva and Sukadeva, like the six Gosvamis, is still more devoted
- Directly Krsna revealing. This is the process of understanding God. You cannot create your imagination, imaginative God. No. God reveals unto you being pleased upon you by your devotional activities
- Don't think it is a very hard job: "Oh, Krsna is so great personality, God, and how one can become His representative?" No. Anyone can become His representative, provided he follows the Krsna's instruction
- Don't think that Krsna, as it is stated in your English dictionary, "Krsna is a Hindu God." He's not Hindu, He's not Muslim, or He's not Christian. He's God
E
- Either man or woman, everyone is prakrti. The real purusa is Krsna
- Either you call Krsna or Jehovah, or whatever name you like, you give, but God is one. So if you simply become to this consciousness, that "I am eternal servant of God, and my business is to serve God..."
- Even according to historical references, Krsna's activities are most uncommon. Krsna has affirmed, "I am God," and He has acted accordingly
- Even if one knows Him (Krsna) as the worshipful God of all demigods, one may not know that He is the supreme proprietor of everything; therefore He is addressed as Jagatpati. BG 1972 purports
- Even people from other religions who are really learned accept it (the Bhagavad-gita). That is proof of the greatness of Krsna - this knowledge. Who can give such knowledge? That is the proof that He is God
- Even though the people of the world have forgotten God and may say that God is dead, this is not a fact. One can understand God when one takes to the Krsna consciousness movement, and thus one can be happy
- Everyone is being controlled by God, but a devotee is so exalted that Krsna says that "I wish to be controlled by you." This is Krsna's position
- Everyone is seeing God according to his capacity; the only difference is that the theist sees God as the Supreme Personality, the most beloved, Krsna, and the atheist sees the Absolute Truth as ultimate death
- Everyone, in any condition of life, should be interested in hearing about Krsna and His activities because He is the Supreme Absolute Truth, the Personality of Godhead
- 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 manifested practically just like ordinary human being. But at the same time, whenever there is need, big, big demons, beginning from Putana, He (Krsna) is maintaining His position as God, but dealing with His devotees
F
- First of all, He (Krsna) is purusa, spiritual, Rama and Krsna, and is described herein (BG 8.9) as kavim; that is, He knows past, present and future and therefore knows everything. BG 1972 purports
- For a devotee these informations of Krsna, oh, become so . . . "My Krsna is so God. Oh, my God is so powerful." And, I think, sometimes I recited one story. This is for very instructive
- For those who do not want to understand Krsna as He is but want to understand by dint of their own imperfect vision, Krsna, God, remains unknown
- Four years ago, they (European boys and girls) did not know what is the name of Krsna. Perhaps they might have seen in the English dictionary the name of Krsna as stated "a Hindu god." But actually, that is not the fact. Krsna is the name of God
- From material point of view, you can understand how much potency is God, Krsna
- From the very beginning up to the time of His (Krsna's) departure from this world, He is God. That is God. God is not manufactured. God is always God. Neither God falls down
- From Vedic knowledge, you get all knowledge. So if you don't accept Krsna as God, that is also your mistake. You do not know God, but here Krsna presents Himself as God, and He is accepted by authorities
G
- Generally, neophyte devotees are anxious to see Krsna, or God, but God cannot be seen or known by our present materially blunt senses
- God (Krsna) is asamordhva, which means that no one is equal to or superior to Him. If we find someone who has no superior, we can accept him as God. God can be defined as one who has no superior and who has no equal. This is the Vedic version
- God is God eternally, and an ordinary living entity is eternally a part and parcel of God. God is one without a second, and the ordinary living entities are many without number. All such living entities are maintained by God Himself
- God is great. That's all. God is great. Krsna proved that He's great. Therefore He's God. Everyone says, "God is great." Allah-u-akbar, the Muslims say: "God is great." And Hindus say, param brahma: "You are the Supreme Spirit." So God is great
- God is Krsna. That is my magic. I don't bluff people. Here is God. See God, be with God, serve God. That's my business
- God is neither dead, nor it is fictitious, but it is factual, and here is this God, Krsna. Krsnas tu bhagavan svayam (SB 1.3.28). This is the verdict of the Vedic literature. There are may be many other gods
- God is not visible to everyone. He is visible - "Here is God" - but those who have not developed the eyes to see God, they think, "Here is a doll, and these foolish people are worshiping a doll." No. He is God, Krsna
- God is one, but He expands Himself in a variety of energies - the material energy, the spiritual energy, the marginal energy and so forth
- God means Krsna, and Krsna means God
- God must be attractive and attractive for all. Therefore, if God has any name, or if you want to give any name to God, only "Krsna" can be given
- God must be attractive by everyone. That is God. So, Krsna, by His opulences, by His strength, by His beauty, by His knowledge, by His renouncement - everything complete. Therefore He's God
- God never says "I am God, Krsna. I am your friend. You sit down idly & I shall do everything." He never said that. He said "You must fight." That is our duty, not that God has given us hands & legs & you sit down idly & let God do it. This isn't devotion
- God or His devotee, Krsna and Krsna devotee, you should always take that they're always good. God is good. And the devotee is good
- God, Krsna, has many millions of potencies (parasya saktir vividhaiva sruyate (CC Madhya 13.65, purport)), and they have been summarized into three categories - the external potency, the internal potency, and the marginal potency
- God, Krsna, is all-powerful, all-beautiful, all-knowledgeable, and complete in everything, and although I may not be complete, I am part and parcel of God, and therefore I have all the qualities of God to a partial extent
- God, Krsna, is called Ajita. Ajita means nobody can conquer God. Therefore His name is Ajita
- God, Krsna, personally has sanctioned this Battle of Kuruksetra. So therefore it is dharma, dharma-yuddha, religious fight
- God, or Krsna, is so affectionate that we have come here in this material world simply to pass stool and urine, still. He's attending. Just imagine what merciful is Krsna
- Gradually, God, Krsna, will reveal. You cannot understand God without revelation. So on account of your attachment He reveals Himself
- Guru as God, not become. He's servant-God. And Krsna is master-God
H

- He (Krsna Caitanya) is full in six opulences: wealth, fame, strength, beauty, knowledge and renunciation. In short, we should know that He is Krsna, God, & that nothing is equal to or greater than Him. There is nothing superior to be conceived - CC Intro
- He (Krsna) always remains victorious over everyone. He alone is God, and all others are His subservient order-carriers
- He (Krsna) is acting as God; He is instructing as God; He is accepted by the acaryas as God; still, these rascals are searching out God. This is their position
- He (Krsna) is God; while He is married to His queens, He is God; and while He is speaking, He is God. There is no difficulty in understanding God. All that is required of us is that we listen to Krsna
- He (Krsna) is not part, but one hundred percent - one hundred percent God. So there is the evidence of authority
- He (the brahmana youth) was not thinking that the Gopala was a mere statue or image, but he considered Him to be God Himself. Suddenly the Deity spoke to him - How do you think that I can go with you? I am a statue. I can't go anywhere
- He is dependent on God, Krsna. Still, he'll not agree. Krsna will come as death. Krsna says, "To such rascals I come as death." Then they will believe that there is God
- He is your master, guru, God and very dear friend, and also the head of your family. Yet sometimes He agrees to act as your family's servant or order-carrier. You are greatly fortunate because this relationship is possible only by bhakti-yoga
- Her name was Cintamani. So the prostitute said, "My dear Bilvamangala, if you have got so intense love for me, oh, had it been for God, for Krsna, how would have been, your life, sublime." Oh, that struck him: "Yes." He at once left
- Here in the material world, a thing which is very big, it cannot become small. But Krsna, because He is the almighty God, He can become the greater than the greatest and the smaller than the smallest
- Here, Bhagavad-gita, He's revealing Himself to Arjuna, because he's a devotee. So if we take the words of Arjuna, then we also realize God
- How do you differentiate the Krsna Mahabharata and Krsna God different? Because Krsna is speaking Bhagavad-gita. That is a chapter in the Mahabharata. So how do you differentiate? What is the cause that you are differentiating?
- How God names are understood? The God names are understood by His action. Just like we say Krsna. Krsna means all-attractive. God is all-attractive. God is attractive for the Hindus, for the Muslim, for the Christians, for everyone
- How they can say: "This is not God"? Is it possible to say? We say: "Here is Krsna, God." Why not discuss this point for our preaching work
- Human being means he is inquiring about the spirit soul or the spiritual world, the supreme spirit, God, Krsna. He is human being
I
- I do not wish to know Krsna what He is, whether He is God or whatever what He is, but I love Krsna. That is the position of Vrndavana. They never try to understand what is Krsna, but they love Krsna
- I love Krsna, or God, and Krsna loves me. This is our exchange of feelings. So in this way, the science of God, even without reading any Vedic literature - of course, that will help you - if you have deeply studied what is God, you can understand God
- I thank you once more for your appreciating my mission of one God, Sri Krishna; one scripture, Bhagavad-gita; and one mantra, Hare Krishna. This idea is not manufactured by me, but it is authoritative statement in the Gita Mahatma Skanda Purana
- If a person knows what gold is, then anywhere he comes upon gold, he'll understand, "Here is gold." He won't think gold is available in one shop only & if a person knows what God is, what the meaning of "God" is, then in Krsna he will find God in fullness
- If Dr. Radhakrishnan really accepts Lord Krsna as the absolute God, then what inspired him to see another being within Krsna and to write, "It is not the personal Krsna to whom we have to give ourselves up
- If God can have any name, the "Krsna" name is the most perfect name, because Krsna means all-attractive. I have explained many times. Unless God is all-attractive, how He can be God?
- If Hindu has manufactured some God, Christian has manufactured some God, that may be God partially, but not the Supreme God. The Supreme God is Krsna
- If I have got an instinct to love others, so why God shall not, God will not have this instinct to love others? If I have got attraction for the opposite sex, why God should not have? Why He should not be attracted by Radharani? Very simple truth
- If I say, "Krsna is the Supreme Lord," you may say, "Why is Krsna the Supreme Lord? Krsna is Indian." No. He is God. For example, the sun rises first over India, then over Europe. But that does not mean the European sun is different from the Indian sun
- If I want to protect myself from the onslaught of the stringent laws of material nature, then I will have to take protection from the supreme friend, God, Krsna. Otherwise these things (wife, friends, child, society, etc.) will not give me protection
- If it is accepted by the great acaryas that He's God then there is no doubt. If Krsna is accepted God, by all the acaryas, bona fide acaryas, authorities
- If one is not jealous, one can serve Krsna very well, because jealousy and envy begin with being jealous of Krsna. For example, some philosophers think, - Why should Krsna be God? I am also God
- If one is serious about understanding what God is, then he will accept Krsna as the Supreme Lord. Once he knows what God is, he'll understand, - Here is God-Krsna
- If one takes seriously the lotus feet of Krsna, who is seated within one's heart, the God eradicates all ignorance. By the torch of knowledge, one immediately understands everything properly by the special mercy of the Supreme God & becomes self-realized
- If the brain should he taxed, it should be taxed for Krsna or God. This is the proper utilization of time. There is no scarcity of bread in the Kingdom of God
- If we are searching for knowledge, we should conduct research to find out whether Krsna is not God. Without any objective, what is the point of thousands of years of speculation
- If we give up the process of understanding as Arjuna did, then you'll never be able to understand Krsna, or God. That is not possible. You have to take up the process which Arjuna accepted
- If we read life of Krsna, we can see that He's Krsna, God, from the very beginning of His birth. God is not manufactured by some mystic power. God is God, and dog is dog. A dog cannot become God; God cannot become dog. That is difference
- If we want to understand God, Krsna, this is the beginning. The easiest beginning - simply chanting
- If Yasoda had seen Krsna in her lap extending six miles to cope with the she-demon Putana, then the natural filial love of Yasoda would have been hurt because in that way Yasoda would have come to know that her so-called son, Krsna, was God Himself
- If you actually become a devotee and develop the consciousness of love for Krsna, then God will be appreciated, God will be seen
- If you actually want santi, then you have to accept this formula of santi as enunciated in the Bhagavad-gita: that Krsna, or God, is the enjoyer, only enjoyer. He is the complete whole
- If you are actually serious to know God, or Krsna, then you must take to this process of devotional service. Without this, you cannot understand. Not through karma, not through mystic yogic exercises, but through devotional service
- If you cannot understand your material father, the next generation, by experimental knowledge, how you can know God, or Krsna, by experimental knowledge? Can you answer this, anyone
- If you do not know how to test my statement, then you may refuse to accept it (Krsna as God). That is another thing
- If you do not try to understand God, or Krsna, with inconceivable omnipotency, then you cannot understand God. That is not possible
- If you love someone, then naturally you think of him always. That is described in the Brahma-samhita. One who has developed love of God, Krsna, can think of Him constantly
- If you simply try to understand that this taste is Krsna, or God, you become God conscious
- If you study from material point of view, when Krsna was present, He proved that He's Bhagavan & Bhagavan means not a big beard & meditation. Krsna never became Bhagavan by meditation. He was not a manufactured God. He's God always. He's not manufactured
- If you want real satisfaction, then you must love Krsna, or God. That is the whole philosophy of..., Vedic philosophy. Or any philosophy you take
- If you want to know Krsna, God, as He is, then you must practice devotional life. Then He'll be seen
- If you want to know what is God, what is Krsna, then you have to go through this bhakti-marga, or devotional... There is no other way. Krsna never says that He can be known through speculation or cultivation of so-called speculative knowledge
- In order to save him from the cycle of birth and death, one has to understand God, or Krsna. Krsna means God. Then he comes to his real, identical position as spiritual body, and then he lives forever
- In the dictionary also, it is said: "Krsna is a Hindu god's name," in English dictionary. But actually, if there is any name or if there any name can be fixed up for God, it is Krsna
- In the English dictionary the name of Krsna as stated "a Hindu god." But actually, that is not the fact. Krsna is the name of God. Krsna means the all-attractive, all-good
- In the position of Radharani He (Lord Caitanya) is requesting Krsna, "My dear Krsna, You can treat me in any way You like, either You love me or trample me, You kick me, but I cannot forget You are my always unconditionally the Lord." This is pure love
- In the spiritual world there often seems to be no difference between the master and the servant. For instance, Krsna's friends the cowherd boys - they do not know that Krsna is God. They play with Him on equal terms
- In the Srimad-Bhagavatam, because it is science of God, there is definition, what do you mean by God. The definition is that one person who has got six opulences in full, He is God
- In the viddhi-marga, when you have no love for God, or Krsna, we have to follow the regulative principle
- In this way (thinking waves cannot go beyond limit by Krsna's order) one can immediately remember Krsna, or God, who is so powerful that even the Pacific Ocean abides by His order. In this way one can think of Krsna, and that is Krsna consciousness
- In Vrndavana the devotees, they practically do not know that Krsna is God. "He is our very beloved friend." That's all. They doesn't care to know whether He is God or not
- In Vrndavana, the cowherd boys and the gopis did not know whether Krsna was God or not, but they simply loved Him
- In Vrndavana, the cowherd boys do not know that Krsna is God. They look on Krsna as an equal. This is the opulence of their devotional position
- It is a fact, however, that the problems of one who takes to the shelter of Krsna, God, are solved. For this reason, if for none other, one should apply his devotional service to Vasudeva, the Supreme Personality of Godhead
- It is not that they think, "Krsna is God, and therefore I love Him." In Vrndavana Krsna does not play as God; He plays there as an ordinary cowherd boy, and although at times He proves that He is the SPG, the devotees there do not care to know it
- It is stated in the English dictionary: "Krsna, one of the Hindu gods." But Krsna does not say that - I am the Hindu god
- It is the business of the asuras to try to kill the Supreme Personality of Godhead or to prove by all means that there is no God or that Krsna is an ordinary human being and not God
- It is the Yamaraja's duty to see that these rascals who have forgotten Krsna, or God, and come here to enjoy material sense gratification, they must be punished. Because material sense gratification is always sinful
- It is very easily understood, because Krsna, or God, is also situated within your heart. If you sincerely want association of God, He is already there with you as a friend
- It's not that because he (a man) has produced hundreds of children, he is finished. So, similarly, God or Krsna, in spite of His unlimited number of children, is there. (Iso Invocation): purnasya purnam adaya purnam evavasisyate
J
- Jesus Christ says that he's son of God, and Krsna says He's God. Therefore, He's father of Jesus Christ
- Just as we are all living beings, Krsna, God, is also a living being. Krsna is not impersonal. Because we are all individual persons but our knowledge and opulence are limited
- Just become submissive and try to hear from authorities. San-mukharitam. Who is authority? Authority is Krsna and, or God, or His representative. Just like Lord Jesus Christ, he's representative of God
- Just like if I'm healthy the finger is also healthy. Then what is the duty of the healthy finger? To serve this body. Similarly, we have got this energy from Krsna, from God. So if you utilize this energy for Krsna then it is proper utilization
K
- Krsna admitted to the gopis that "I cannot return your loving dealings. I am unable. So please be satisfied with your activities. I cannot return." Now, just see. God, who is so powerful, He fails to return the loving objective of the devotee
- Krsna can eat everything. He is God. But He says that, "Give Me this." Patram puspam phalam toyam: "Offer Me this flower, fruit, water." Like that
- Krsna consciousness movement is trying to teach people that the ultimate goal of life is to satisfy Krsna, either you, Krsna or God. Krsna is the most explicit explanation of God
- Krsna consciousness movement means krsna-tattva, the science of Krsna, or the science of God
- Krsna did not reply to even a single accusation made by Sisupala, but all the members except few, present in the meeting were very much agitated because it is the duty of any respectable person not to tolerate blasphemy against God or His devotee
- Krsna had no business to take part in the battle, because He is God, samo 'ham sarva-bhutesu na me dvesyo 'sti na priyah, He has no enemy. Nobody can become His enemy. If he becomes enemy of Krsna, he will be vanquished. Therefore He has no enemy
- Krsna is always yasoda-nandana. He is always ready to be chastised by Mother Yasoda, by the gopis, and sometimes by His friends. That is Vrndavana Krsna. That is real Krsna; that is real God
- Krsna is cent percent God. Narayana is ninety-six percent God, Lord Siva is eighty-four percent God, Lord Brahma is eighty-seven percent God
- Krsna is equal to everyone. Samo 'ham sarva-bhutesu (BG 9.29). Otherwise, how He is God? If He is partial to somebody, then He is not God. He must be equal
- Krsna is explaining Himself. God is explaining what is God. That is real knowledge. If you speculate on God, it is not possible. You cannot understand
- Krsna is for everyone. Don't think that Krsna, as it is stated in your English dictionary, "Krsna is a Hindu God." He's not Hindu, He's not Muslim or He's not Christian. He's God. God is neither Hindu nor Muslim nor Christian
- Krsna is for everyone. Don't think that Krsna, as it is stated in your English dictionary, "Krsna is a Hindu God." He's not Hindu, He's not Muslim, or He's not Christian. He's God
- Krsna is God from the childhood. When He was three months old He demonstrated His godly powers. He immediately killed Sakatasura. He immediately killed Putana. So He did not become God by meditation, manufactured in some mystic factory
- Krsna is God, and God is one; He cannot be two. So how could there be another God to become the son of Vasudeva and Devaki? Krsna therefore said, - It is not possible to find another God, so I Myself shall become your son
- Krsna is God, undoubtedly. So take to Krsna consciousness and abide by the order of Krsna. Then everyone can come together on the same religious platform. One religion, Krsna consciousness
- Krsna is nobody's servant, but everyone is Krsna's servant. If everyone becomes Krsna's servant, then everyone is protected by Krsna. Krsna is God, so He is protecting everyone, He is giving food everyone, but especially inclined to the devotees
- Krsna is not a Hindu god; He is God. But He appeared in India. He remained in the Vedic culture. Lord Buddha was also Hindu. And he was in Vedic culture. Later on he spread his own mission. That is also Hindu culture, ahimsa, nonviolence
- Krsna is not just for India. He is for everyone, because He is God
- Krsna is the name of God, but if you think that "Krsna is Indian name or Hindu name. Why shall I chant it?" no, you have got your God's name, so you chant that. You chant that. We recommend that you chant. God's name must be. Then you'll be purified
- Krsna is the original Personality of Godhead and all other features originate from Him. He is not different from His plenary expansions, and He is God in any of His innumerable forms. BG 1972 purports
- Krsna may sometimes act like a common man, but as God He expanded Himself into sixteen thousand forms
- Krsna means "all-attractive." So unless God is all-attractive, how can He be God? A man is important when he is attractive
- Krsna said that what is His mission to come here? Krsna is God. He does not require to come here, but He comes to serve some purpose. If God wants to come, nobody can check
- Krsna says in Bhagavad-gita, samo 'ham sarva-bhutesu: (BG 9.29) "I am equal to everyone." Krsna, being God, loves everyone because everyone is part of Him. Nonetheless, He takes special care of His devotees
- Krsna says that "Arjuna, you see that still, I have engaged Myself in the worldly duties." Why? Just to become the ideal man. Although He was not man, He was God
- Krsna says: "I am God." Mattah parataram nanyat (BG 7.7): "There is no more superior person or superior position than Me," Krsna says. And "God" means that. In the dictionary "God" means the Supreme Being. Supreme Being means nobody is greater than Him
- Krsna was not born in your country; you do not accept Krsna as your religious God. But Krsna is so attractive that although you are a foreigner, you are not foreign
- Krsna was present on this earth and appeared just like a human being with supernatural power. At that time, however, ninety-nine percent of the people could not recognize Him as God
- Krsna's family and friends never understood that Krsna is God. Their natural love for Krsna was so intense. Therefore Vrndavana life is so exalted
- Krsna, God, is kind to everyone, merciful. But one who has engaged himself in the service of Krsna, He takes special care for him. So we should not miss this opportunity of life
- Krsna, God, never becomes old. That is His supreme power
- Krsna, or God, is never impersonal; the impersonal feature is but a manifestation of His transcendental body (yasya prabha prabhavato jagad-anda-koti)
- Krsnas tu bhagavan svayam: (SB 1.3.28) Bhagavan, God, means Sri Krsna. We have simply presented this information, saying, "Here is God. Sri Krsna." Because they have taken this seriously, many young Americans and Europeans are advancing in KC
- Krsnas tu bhagavan svayam: (SB 1.3.28) Krsna is the Supreme Lord, the original Lord. Prahlada Maharaja is our guru, and Krsna is our worshipable God
L
- Life after life, you are trying to satisfy your senses. Krsna is giving you the facility, God is giving you the facility, but He is asking you that "Give up this business, nonsense"
- Lord Brahma is describing about Krsna. There are some foolish question that "Krsna appeared five thousand years ago. How He became God?" Actually that is not the fact
- Lord Caitanya and all their followers by disciplic succession, all unanimously agree that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead
- Lord Caitanya, who started this movement five hundred years ago in Bengal, India, He immediately informs you that our real identity, real constitutional position, is that we are part and parcel of Krsna, or God
- Lord Krsna said... As the Supreme Lord, He commended - He has got the commanding power because He is the Supreme God - that "You surrender unto Me"
- Love is something tangible. It is not merely fantasy or imagination. So we Krsna conscious people accept Krsna as God, and we are worshiping Krsna, and we are making progress
M
- Material life is miserable life. Krsna says, God says, that this place is duhkhalayam - it is a place of miseries. And it is also asasvatam, temporary
- Mayavadi philosophy means they accept Krsna as God, but He has assumed a body which is given by this material nature, as it is given to us. That is their policy. They count Krsna an ordinary man, on the same level. But that is not a fact
- Mayavadi theory is, "I am Krsna. I am God. Now I am overpowered by maya, & as soon as I become free from maya, again I become Krsna." But question is, - If you are Krsna or God, then why you became under the control of maya? What kind of God you are
- Mayavadis are attractive. They are very educated. They can put things in jugglery of words. That capacity they have got. So people become amazed, almost everyone. So therefore they are not very much pleased with this movement, that "Krsna is God"
- Men often dare claim to be God, or Krsna. One should not be misled by such meaningless claims. BG 1972 purports
- Muhammad says he is servant of God. Christ says he is son of God. And Krsna says, "I am God." So where is the difference? The son will say the same thing, the servant will say the same thing, and the father also will say the same thing
- My dear Uddhava, please hear me. In truth Krsna is my son, but even if you think that He is God, I would still bear toward Him my own feelings for my son. May my mind be attached to your Lord Krsna
- My mission of one God, Sri Krishna; one scripture, Bhagavad-gita; and one mantra, Hare Krishna
N
- Nalakuvara & Manigriva said: O Lord! O source of all auspiciousness and goodness, we offer our respectful obeisances unto You. You are the all-pervading S. P. of Godhead, the supreme source of peace & the supreme personality in the dynasty of King Yadu
- Narada also says to Yudhisthira, "My dear King, it is Lord Krsna, known as Mukunda, who is the eternal protector of the Pandavas and the Yadus. He is also your spiritual master and instructor in every respect. He is the only worshipable God for you"
- No manufacturer can create the pure taste of water. We can thus remember Krsna or God when we drink water. No one can avoid drinking water every day of his life, so God consciousness is there - how can we forget
- Nobody believes Krsna is God. Even big, big leaders, what to speak of ordinary men. Especially the so-called educated men. - Bring money anyhow and enjoy life
- Nondevotees think that because Krsna says, "I am God," they and everyone else can say the same. But if asked to show their universal form, they cannot do it. That is the difference between a pseudo god and the real God
- Nothing can exist without Krsna, and Krsna is the Lord of everything - this is the basic principle of Krsna consciousness. BG 1972 purports
- Now people have to understand that Krsna is God. There is no "different role" for the Vedic culture. The role is the same worldwide
- Nrsimha-deva - one thing for Hiranyakasipu, one thing for Prahlada. That is not God's discrimination, that is natural. Krsna says: samo 'ham sarva-bhutesu (BG 9.29): "I am equal to everyone." Otherwise, if He's not equal to everyone, how He can be God?
O
- Of course it is a fact that Krsna, being God, has His residence everywhere. He even resides within every atom. Andantara-stha-paramanu-cayantara-stham - Bs. 5.35
- One God is Krishna, one scripture is Bhagavad-gita, one mantra is Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna, and one service means everything for the Lord
- Only Krsna is God, and everyone is servant. Everyone is complying with His order. BG 1972 purports
- Only the fools consider that Krsna is ordinary human being. He comes to give us lesson what is actually God. God is Krsna. Krsnas tu bhagavan svayam. Therefore it is His mercy that He comes before us to show what is actually God
- Ordinarily, Krsna, or God, is taking care of everyone even if he's not in Krsna consciousness, and those who are coming to Krsna consciousness, what to speak of them? Special care by Krsna. Rest assured. Engage yourself rigidly to KC. Be happy
- Our knowledge is parampara. That Krsna says, whatever He says is all right. Krsna is not common man, avajananti mam mudha manusim tanum asritam. He's not man at all He's Supreme Personality of Godhead. Abhijnah. Experience in everything
- Our point is that Krsna, or God, is there, and He is working through His potencies
- Our real business, our real occupation, is to serve Krsna, God. That is our... That service spirit, because we have forgotten God, or Krsna, we are serving somebody else
- Our real purpose is to spread Krishna Consciousness. This means that there is one God; Krishna, one scripture; Bhagavad-gita As It Is, one mantra; Hare Krishna, and one work; service of Lord Krishna. We want to preach this cult all over the world
P
- People are very much anxious to have one religion, one God, one scripture, and one business or one activity of life. This is summarized in the Bhagavad-gita - that one God is Krsna. Krsna is not sectarian God. Krsna means the greatest pleasure
- People try to understand, that this Krsna consciousness movement, is Hindu movement: "Krsna is one of the Hindu gods." But that is not the fact. Krsna is God. God is God. God cannot be Hindu God, cannot be Muslim God, cannot be Christian God
- Please, therefore, chant regularly without the offenses and be steady in your situation without any tottering of the mind. Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead without any question
- Premanjana: and smearing the eyes with the ointment of love of Krsna. We can see Krsna, God, with these eyes when it is anointed with the particular medicine, which is called love of Godhead
- Properly speaking, He (Krsna) never becomes God because He is the Godhead in all circumstances
R
- Ramakrishna Mission, if I say it frankly, they distorted the Bhagavad-gita to the greatest extent. Yes. Because they presented somebody as Rama-Krsna, as God
- Rascaldom is not nice, but Krsna is absolute. He is God. Therefore His rascaldom is also good. Krsna is all-good. God is good
- Real knowledge means to understand God. That is real knowledge. Vedais ca sarvair aham eva vedyah (BG 15.15). What is the Veda, Vedanta? To know Krsna, or God. Krsna and God, the same
- Real purusa means, the supreme enjoyer, God, Krsna. And prakrti means which is enjoyed. Another meaning - prakrti, means woman and purusa means man
- Religion means the law given by Krsna, by God. That is religion. You cannot manufacture religion. Krsna . . . dharmam tu saksad bhagavat-pranitam (SB 6.3.19). Therefore real religion is to surrender to Krsna
- Religion means the law given by Krsna, or God. That is religion. Otherwise, it is not religion. That is cheating. Dharmah projjhita-kaitavo 'tra (SB 1.1.2). This is cheating religion. If you do not follow Krsna, that is cheating
- Religious principle means you have to execute the preliminary formulas, but the ultimate end will be you'll have spontaneous attraction for hearing about God, or Krsna. That is wanted
- Ruci means taste. Why you are hearing about Krsna daily, the same thing? We are speaking nothing new. "Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and you have to surrender." This is our daily business
S
- Saksad-dharitvena samasta-sastrair uktas, in every sastra it is said the guru is God, Krsna. So it is stated in the sastra and it is accepted by authorities. Not that it is simply stated. Samasta-sastrair, ukta
- Simple boys and girls. But their devotion is exalted, because they did not know anything beyond Krsna. That's all. Krsna is their life. Never mind to know that Krsna is God or not
- Simply you have to smear your eyes with the ointment of love of God, Krsna. And if you want to come to that stage, then you have to follow the instruction given by Srila Rupa Gosvami in the Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu
- Since Krsna is the Absolute Truth, there are no mundane distinctions such as moral and immoral. Whatever He does is good. This is the real meaning of "God is good." He is good in all circumstances
- So far our International Society is concerned, we do not cheat. We speak the real truth. Here is God, Krsna. Here you are. Your relationship is to serve Him
- So far our position is, we accept God Krsna, on the authority, as well as by the action. Both
- So Krsna is the best and foremost acarya, and He is accepted as the Supreme Personality of Godhead
- So Krsna's one business is to kill these rebellious persons who deny the supremacy of God, who declare himself as God
- So Prahlada Maharaja, therefore, taking courage, that the material qualifications are not assets to approach God, but it is only devotional service, service attitude. "Krsna, or God, I love You. I can sacrifice You... I can sacrifice everything for You
- Some said, "He (Krsna) is an incarnation of Narayana," and others said, "He is the incarnation of Ksirodakasayi Visnu." But actually He is the original Supreme Personality of Godhead - krsnas tu bhagavan svayam
- Spiritual Master is an agent of Krishna. But either He is assistant to the gopis or assistant to the cowherds boys, He is on the level of Krishna. That is the verdict of all scriptures. Krishna is worshipable God & the Spiritual Master is worshipper God
- Spiritually, eternally, the fragments are fragments, and the Supreme is Supreme. Krsna is the Supreme, and we are fragmental parts. We are fragments eternally
T
- That (God must be impersonal because He is unlimited) is not the Vedic instruction. The Vedas instruct that God is a person. Krsna is a person, and we are also persons, but the difference is that He is to be worshiped whereas we are to be worshipers
- That (how can the people in general recognize when a devotee is pure?) is, I have already described. He has no material desire except to serve Krsna, or God. That is devotee. That is pure devotee
- That is our mission: one God, one mantra, one scripture, one activity. One God: Krsna. One mantra: Hare Krsna. One scripture: Bhagavad-gita. And one activity: to serve Krsna. That's all. There is no two. One
- That is the plan of God, Krsna (to live in the village and keep cows and grow food grains, fruits, vegetables). Krsna personally exhibited. Vrndavana is village; it is not city. We are trying to go to the village of Krsna - Vrndavana
- That you should understand. Not that remembering or not remembering. Even in the spiritual world, they do not know that Krsna is God
- The body has no importance. Real, the soul is important, the living force. So we have no education about that living force, and the original living force is Krsna, or God
- The Caitanya-caritamrta confirms, ekale isvara krsna, ara saba bhrtya: only Krsna is God, and everyone else is His servant. Everyone is complying with His order
- The central stomach of the whole creation is God, or Krsna. He is the enjoyer, He is the friend, and, as the supreme proprietor, He is maintaining everyone
- The dictionary, it is said, in English dictionary, that Krsna is one Hindu God. Is not? In the dictionary. Why Hindu God? He says that, "I am the father of all living entities." Why He should be the father of the Hindus, Indians? He's father of everyone
- The fact is that there is God, Krsna, and we are all parts and parcels of Krsna. We have been conditioned in some way or other in this material atmosphere
- The gopis, the cowherds boys, they did not know whether Krsna is God, never cared to know it. But their love, profound love for Krsna
- The Gosvami's siddhanta, that Krsna is one. There is no rivalry with Krsna. God is one. Eka-brahma dvitiya nasti. There cannot be many Gods. So when God, Krsna, wants to enjoy His pleasure potency, that is Radharani
- The Gosvamis, the six Gosvamis, they have analyzed Krsna's characteristic, Narayana's characteristic, Siva's characteristic, Brahma's characteristic. They have analyzed very scrutinizingly everything, and they have found it that Krsna is cent percent God
- The higher intelligence should be utilized to know God or Krsna. When we say: "Krsna," Krsna means God
- The inhabitants of Vrndavana do not care who is God, and who is not. They love Krsna, that's all. Those who think of first analyzing Krsna to determine whether He is God are not first-class devotees
- The king's duty is to act as the representative of Krsna, or God. Otherwise what right does he have to take so much honor from the citizens
- The Krsna consciousness movement is for this purpose that - You religionist, you philosophers, you scientist, you speculators, you are all . . . theosophists, so many, you are searching after God, and here is God, Krsna
- The Lord is situated as Himself, Lord Krsna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and He is accompanied by His expansions like Lord Rama, Baladeva, Sankarsana, Narayana, Maha-Visnu and so forth
- The Lord says in the Bhagavad-gita, "The asuras' view of this cosmic manifestation is that the whole creation is false. The asuras think that the mere interaction of matter is the source of the creation and that there is no controller or God"
- The madhyama-adhikari knows that Krsna is God: krsnas tu bhagavan svayam (SB 1.3.28). He wants to develop his love for Krsna
- The materialistic theory that God-worship is anthropomorphic is not correct. No living being can become God by undergoing meditation or austerities. God is always God. Krsna as a baby is as complete as He is as a full-fledged youth
- The Mayavadi monist must accept a certain type of body, being forced by the laws of nature; therefore, his claim to being one with Krsna, or God, is only theoretical
- The Mayavadi Vedantists are all nonsense - they have no knowledge at all. The subject matter of ultimate knowledge, Vedanta, is Krsna, God
- The modern fashion is that they want to become God by meditation, by advancement of mystic power. But that kind of God is not Krsna. Krsna does not become God; He's God always. Others, they try to become God by mystic power
- The purpose of studying Vedas means to understand Krsna, or God. When I speak of Krsna, you understand God. So when one understands what is God, what is Brahman, what is Krsna, what is Paramatma, then he is a Brahmana. This is the process
- The purpose of this Krsna consciousness movement is to inform everyone that no one is superior to Krsna, God
- The real understanding is that "God, or Krsna, is the supreme father, and we are all sons of God." That is real knowledge. Therefore those who are in real knowledge, panditah sama-darsinah
- The simple definition of God is that one who is in full six opulences, He's God. That has been analyzed by great saintly persons, including Lord Brahma, and it has been decided that the all the six opulences can be found in Krsna
- The so-called reading of Bhagavad-gita, lecture on Bhagavad-gita, without Krsna... God, kingdom of God without God. We want kingdom of God, peace and prosperity, but without God. There must not be God. That is our secular government
- The spirit soul is pure; there is no doubt about it, because it is part and parcel of Krsna, or God. So God is pure. Just like gold is gold, and the fragments of gold is also gold, the same quality
- The spiritual master is God, and Krsna is God, but Krsna is the worshipable God whereas the spiritual master is the worshiper God
- The supreme living being must also be the supreme person. In the Vedic literatures the supreme person is properly claimed to be Krsna
- The two birds are sitting in one tree. One bird is eating the fruit of the tree, and the other bird is simply witnessing. That witness bird is God, Krsna, and the eating bird is atma. So He is giving chance, as we want
- The unborn Supreme Lord, Krsna, while maintaining His full personality, eternality, and imperishability, expands Himself into countless Visnu forms, jivas, and internal and external potencies
- The whole scheme should be to satisfy the Lord. This is the secret of success. Tasmin tuste jagat tustam. If God, or Krsna, is satisfied, then whole world is satisfied. The modern civilization is lacking this knowledge
- The word sanatana means "eternal," and the word amsa means "particles." God, Krsna, is very great. No one is equal to Him or greater than Him
- The world is feeling so much disturbed by the misarrangement of the leaders of the society. They have forgotten Krsna or God. They are thinking that by material advancement they will be happy, but that is never possible
- There are nine different processes for associating with God, and the first method of association is sravanam - hearing. By reading Bhagavad-gita we hear the speeches of Sri Krsna, which means that we are actually associating with Krsna or God
- There are so many isvaras, gods, that's all right. But the Supreme Lord is Krsna because nobody is found greater than Krsna
- There cannot be different description of God. God is one. One must know who is that God. That is education. Now, we are teaching that, "Here is God, Krsna." Now it is up to you to test whether Krsna is God or not God
- There is discretion, that human being, they should offer these fruits, vegetables, milk as it is prescribed in the sastra, to God, Krsna, and take. That is human civilization
- There is no "different role." God is one. God cannot be two. As Krsna states in the Bhagavad-gita (7.7), mattah parataram nanyat kincid asti dhananjaya: "There is no authority superior to Me." That is God
- There is no need to speculate, "What is God? Where is God?" Why foolishly go on searching? Here is God - Krsna
- There is no one in the creation who can claim that he is not controlled. Everyone, regardless of how important or powerful, has a controller over his head. Krsna, however, has no controller; therefore He is God
- There must be one supreme source. That is God. Simple to understand. Is it very difficult to understand? The supreme cause, He is God
- 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 (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 people) know that there is God, but they do not know actually what is God. But this Krsna consciousness movement is giving, presenting, the Supreme Personality of Godhead direct: Here is God, Krsna. Here is God
- They (the rascals) have no clear conception of God. Because they are sinful. We can give the name, address and everything of God, clear conception, not vague idea, "God may be like this, God may be like that." Why maybe? He (Krsna) is God
- They are all devotees. Krsna's friend, Krsna's father, Krsna's everyone, when He displays Himself, they are all devotees. He's the Supreme. Nobody can be father of Krsna
- They are also afraid. Because the Communist movement means godlessness. And our movement is, "Here is God." There is no blind faith. "Here is God, Krsna! You take His name, you take His address - everything." Practical
- They are studying now atomic energy. Still they are finding difficulty. Dividing, dividing, dividing. Because they cannot find out that there is God, there is Krsna
- They think that Krsna is saying, "Yes, I am the Hindu God. Yes, I am Indian." But He is like the sun. Why American sun or Indian? Nothing is American or Indian; that is all artificial
- This (Krsna expanding Himself to 16,108 times) may seem difficult to believe, but it is stated in Srimad-Bhagavatam, and the great sages of India recognize this as scripture and recognize Krsna as God
- This (loving Krsna without knowing He is God or not) is a very highly elevated position called sarvopadhi-vinirmuktam tat-paratvena nirmalam, or the stage of purity in which one is liberated from all material designations
- This bhakti-yoga is so nice that Krsna, or God, who is unapproachable by any other method - however efficient it may be, it is not possible - only by love and devotion in service He can be approached
- This is a teaching of Lord Caitanya, that to accept Krsna as ordinary man is also offense, and similarly to accept an ordinary man as Krsna, or God, that is also offense
- This is all nonsense (to claim that God meditates, and by His meditation He becomes God). God is God, & He was always God and will always be God. Even as an infant on the lap of His mother Krsna is God. No meditation was required, no austerity or penance
- This is natural feeling of love between Krsna, or God, and between living entities, but the maya is interrupting the relation. It is called illusion
- This is real knowledge. The real knowledge is that when one understands convincingly that "I am part and parcel of Krsna." Krsna, or God
- This is the idea. Krsna is not sectarian. Krsna is not Hindu; Krsna is not Indian; Krsna is not African. Krsna is nothing of this material world. He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, transcendental
- This Krsna consciousness movement is educating people in this way, that Krsna is the enjoyer. You have seen Krsna's picture. He is always enjoying. He is not working. That is Krsna. God
- Those who are miscreants, they think that Krsna, or God, He is like an ordinary man but a superhuman being. That's all
- Those who are thinking of first of all analyzing Krsna, whether He's God, they are not first-class devotee. Those who have got spontaneous love for Krsna, they are first-class devotees. How you will analyze Krsna? He's unlimited. It is impossible
- Those who do not directly worship the Supreme Godhead, Krsna, but who attempt to achieve the same goal by an indirect process, also ultimately achieve the supreme goal, Sri Krsna. BG 1972 purports
- Those who have denied the existence of God, they are also being fed by Krsna, or God. And we are preaching the glories of God. Why we shall be in want? That is not possible. And actually we are not
- To blaspheme a Vaisnava, a preacher of God's glory, is great offense. Krsna, or God, will never tolerate offense on the lotus feet of a Vaisnava
- To understand God, to understand Krsna, is not very easy job; very, very difficult job. Therefore we don't find anyone is interested in Krsna. Anywhere you go, all over the world, you make a statistic: nobody is interested in Krsna
- Two birds are sitting on the same tree. One bird is eating the fruit and the other bird is simply witnessing. The witnessing bird is God, Krsna, and the eating bird is the living entity
U
- Unfortunately, people are so foolish at the present moment that they do not believe even in the next life. Mudha. What to speak of understanding God and Krsna, they have no even the basic principle of spiritual knowledge
- Unless we accept this principle that Krsna, or God, has got inconceivable power, acintya-sakti, we cannot understand. If we put Krsna within the jurisdiction of my limited understanding, that is not understanding of Krsna
V
- Vasudeva continued, "My dear Lord, at the very moment when You (Krsna) first appeared in Kamsa's prison house, You informed me that You were the Supreme Personality of Godhead"
- Vivasvan is in the Brahma Sampradaya. All the sampradayas are related with one another because the conclusion is the same: that Lord Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and the living entities are His eternal servants
W
- We accept Krsna as God. Even by His activities He is not ordinary. He had to meet so many dangers before He was accepted God. From childhood, when He was baby, just three months old, He had to struggle. He had to struggle with His position as God
- We are accepting Krsna as God not blindly, but by testing. By testing. His character is mentioned in the books. Therefore, we accept God, not by blind faith, but by testing. Although we cannot test, but sastra gives us the chance of testing
- We are eternal, we are many, and God is also eternal, but He is one. He is singular number. Not that all of us, we are God. That is nonsense
- We are firmly convinced that Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and all other are His part and parcel servants. This we must declare boldly to the whole world
- We are giving a great contribution to the human society, to understand God, or Krsna. This is Krsna consciousness movement. So you can understand God by becoming a devotee. That is not very difficult task
- We are part and parcel of God, Krsna, Visnu. We are suffering on account of our relationship with God. This is the cause of our suffering. Then we have to make plan how to revive our lost relationship with God
- We are presenting Krsna before you, and you take it. Most of the Western country, they are Christian. So the Christians believe in Lord Jesus Christ as son of God. But we are presenting the father, God Himself
- We cannot claim to be God without being able to display the powers of God. As far as Krsna is concerned, He proved that He was God by displaying so much power and by revealing His universal form to Arjuna
- We devotees of Krsna have a clear conception of God. Here is God: Krsna. And He's giving orders. We accept those orders. So it is clear religion
- We do not accept Krsna as perfect simply on the basis of our whims or sentiments. No - Krsna is accepted as God by many Vedic authorities like Vyasadeva, the author of all Vedic literatures
- We do not want to depend on anyone's financial contributions; we depend on God, or Krsna
- We forget our relationship with God, or Krsna. Then adharma. That is... Instead of becoming servant of Krsna, I become servant of so many things
- We have got limited energy, creative energy, so-called scientific knowledge, so-called other knowledge. Limited. Because our senses are limited. And we are thinking that God may be a little bigger than me, Krsna
- We have to simply preach that - You are searching after God, you great scientist, theologist, theosophist, mental speculators. You are searching after God, the Absolute Truth. Here is God: Krsna
- We know that everyone is human being, and everyone, every living entity, not only the human being, even the birds, beasts, animals, trees, everyone, a living entity is part and parcel of God, Krsna
- We meditate upon Krsna, so that is perfect meditation because meditation means to think of God
- We often hear that God is coming to Los Angeles or New York and that people are gathering to receive Him, etc. But Krsna is not the type of God manufactured in a mystic factory. No. He was not made God, but He is God
- We present Bhagavad-gita as it is. In the Bhagavad-gita, Krsna is the Supreme Lord. In the, all the Vedic literature, Krsna is accepted as the Supreme Lord, person, the Supreme Personality of Godhead
- We put so much stress on seeing, but when Krsna was present on this earth, so many people saw Him and did not realize that He is God; so what is the advantage of seeing
- We should always remember that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He is present as incarnation. Now, God is all-powerful
- We should know then on the basis of authority that behind this gigantic material nature, the cosmic manifestation, there is God - Krsna - and that He is accepted by all Vedic authorities
