- We are also doing that, that "Don't associate with the four principles of sinful life: illicit sex, meat-eating, intoxication and gambling." Tyaja durjana-samsargam bhaja sadhu-samagamam: You associate with sadhus
- We are not impersonalists or voidists. Our program is to enter into the association of Krishna. But we cannot enter within this association without being completely disinfected from the contamination of material sinful life
- We are now implicated in so many sinful life, and we have to reap the result. We have to suffer for it in dehantara-praptih

- We are taking so much milk from the cows, and we are killing instead of giving them protection. So in this way, we are simply committing sinful life. How you can expect to become happy? So the only means is to take to Krsna consciousness
- We are thinking "Let me go on doing all nonsense, and somebody for me will suffer." No, that is not the law. So here Pariksit Maharaja does not raise such foolish question that "Who is suffering for . . ." One who has committed sinful life, he must suffer
- We cannot surpass the vigilance of material nature by committing or by executing sinful life. That is not possible
- We do not make any compromise, that you go on with your sinful life, at the same time I sanction that you have become Krsna conscious. No, that we cannot do
- We have recently experienced a war between India and Pakistan. Within fourteen days there have been immense losses of men and money, and there have been disturbances to the entire world. These are the reactions of sinful life
- We have to serve Krsna, and we are subordinate. He is supplying our necessities. He is the Supreme Father. This life is normal life and liberated life. Any other life, beyond this conception of Krsna consciousness, that is sinful life
- We take promise from our disciples that, "Now the account is squared up. Whatever sinful life you led, that is closed now. Without any payment, I close. Now don't commit any more."
- We therefore pray unto You, O Lord, for You are very affectionate to Your devotees. Please help us remember You and utter Your holy names, attributes and activities, which can dispel all the reactions of our sinful lives
- We want to close these places of sinful life: brothels, illegitimate sense gratification, sex relationship, prostitution. If we are embarrassed with this sinful life, there is no possibility of becoming again acyuta. We remain fallen. We remain fallen
- Whatever form of material existence one is in, one is invariably ignorant of his real situation. In other words, existence in the material world is due to the multiple reactions to our sinful lives. BG 1972 purports

- While performing fruitive activities one can become free from the actions of sinful life through austerity, penance, celibacy, control of the mind and senses, truthfulness and the practice of mystic yoga
Y
- Yajnas were previously performed with offerings of oblations of ghee and food grains, but in this age, of course, this is no longer possible, for the production of ghee and food grains has diminished because of the sinful life of human society
- You cannot be free from the contamination of this material world. Then how? Mam eva ye prapadyante mayam etam taranti te. You can simply become free from all contamination, sinful life, when you are a surrendered soul
- You give up four principles of sinful life: illicit sex, gambling, meat-eating and intoxication. - So he (Zetland) immediately replied, "Impossible. This is our life. We cannot give up this." So that Swamiji replied, - Then you cannot become a brahmin
- You have committed murder, you must be hanged - nor your father nor your son nor your brother. This is the law. If you commit sinful life, then you must suffer, not anyone else
- You take this process of atonement, but don't commit sinful life any more. Don't think that "Now I am chanting, and I can go on committing all sinful activities." That is aparadha. That is offense
