Krishna exalts those who are humble and humbles those who exalt themselves.
Fierce Determination and Gentle Humility are the ornaments which make one attractive in the eyes of the Lord.
Arrogance repels the Lord; humility attracts the Lord.
Humility is a natural symptom of those who love God.
Substance of Bhakti is Surrender and Humility.
Theoretical knowledge can not touch heart without Humility
To be meek and humble means to have a service attitude towards God, the Vaisnavas, and all living beings. Unless we have that, our chanting will have minimal effect and many births may pass before we finally come to the conclusion.
Application of humility is service.
The Ultimate expression of Humility comes when we control our senses.
There is false humility and genuine humility and between them, there is a desire of the practitioner to become humble.
Lord's love manifests in this world as compasssion.
Guru is heavy, because he carries Lord Krishna in his heart.
It’s not the body that people love, but the soul. The body is a temporary vehicle. Without the soul, the body is like a car without a driver. I see through my eyes, smell through my nose, taste through my tongue, hear through my ears, feel through my skin, think through my brain, and love through my heart. But who am I? Who is the witness, enjoyer and sufferer that activates my body?
The perfection of yoga is to become detached. And the perfection of detachment is to become completely attached, attached to God.
