The diverse religions and races bring beauty to the world if we truly understand in our hearts the essence of who we are and what we stand for. And that really is the essence of spirituality.
When one's eyes are anointed with the salve of prema, spiritual love then we could see Vrindavan.
If we do the right thing with right intent that is actually our success.
If someone takes responsibility without force, that is love.
A grateful heart is not one that is very selective and choosy about what to be grateful for.
Genuine spiritual movement should forgive and encourage.
If we seek the essence of every situation, if we seek to connect to God within our hearts, then we will find an opportunity there, to grow internally in wisdom in every trial we face.
Pure devotional service fries the seeds of material inclinations in our heart.
Greatness is in not what you do but how you are an instrument in the hands of God.
The most transformative and gentle humility and pride. But they transform in opposite ways.
The Absolute Truth can be perceived by a repentant heart.
Even if you want one drop of respect you have to take birth in this material world again.
Any propensity other than love cannot exist in the spiritual world. There is unlimited variegatedness, but they are all extraordinarily wonderful ways of expressing love.
Faith is the act of seeing beyond the religion of possibility of the senses, the mind and the intelligence.
