  • Chapter Name: Contents of the Gītā Summarized

Important Points from Translation & Purport

Important Points from the Class

  • Bhagavad Gita offers highest knowledge i.e. devotion to Krishna.
  • We should always remember the verse – man mana bhav mad bhakto
  • Viswanth Chakrawarthi Thakura compares Gita to a jewel box. Base of the box is jnana yoga; lid is karma yoga and jewel inside is Bhakti yoga.
  • Krishna creates a situation where Arjuna is bewildered.
  • Gita is life manual for those who are practitioners of yoga and also those who are not practitioners of yoga.

Srimad Bhagavatam Class by HG Nimai Anand Prabhu on 2nd Dec 2025

Important Points from Translation & Purport

  • In this world there are many kinds of created bodies — some with one leg, others with two, three, four or more legs, and still others with no legs — but of all these, the human form is actually dear to Me.
  • The ultimate purpose of material creation is to facilitate the return of the conditioned souls back home, back to Godhead.

Important Points from the Class

  • Srila Prabhupada was saying, “As per dictionary definition of God is “greatest being and highest authority.”” Now in this canto, we are directly hearing from Krishna i.e. the highest authority.
  • We can take guidance from AI tool but if we take personal association, we get personal guidance, consciousness is involved, one can get blessings too.
  • Hearing from a person, helps to develop deeper relationship, helps to receive real consciousness.
  • Just being in Krishna Consciousness movement is not going to take us back to godhead, we need to do the right thing.
  • A pure devotee may be walking but we cannot understand his glories just by seeing him. We understand about him when we hear his glories.
  • Material energy is very dangerous and absorbing, it pulls us away from Krishna.
  • Those who are at sensual level get distracted especially by internet, watching reels.
  • Material energy also distracts us at mental level; someone wants to do something great which is nothing to do with Krishna. Even devotees can get absorbed into it.
  • Material energy is eternal and once a soul falls here he can remain here forever, so he is called nitya badha. He cannot come on his own unless he receives causeless mercy of the Lord.
  • Material energy distracts us at intellectual level: We can take one topic and get absorbed in it. One may do whole life research on grass or leech and throughout life one can be caught into it.
  • Srila Prabhupada was saying that dog cannot see beyond eating, sleeping, mating and defending. Similarly, people are not seeing beyond these 4 things. So, how they are different from dogs?
  • Human life is to finish dreams and to wake up to reality. If we are not using this human life to understand God, then our human form of life is useless.
  • On BG 7.1, Prabhupada has given around 51 lectures.
  • Anything which takes us away from Krishna is very dangerous.
  • By the mercy of devotees, we get some attraction for Krishna. But for attachment to Krishna, we need to practice attentive devotional service.
  • Srila Prabhupada says that if you see my spectacle then you will remember “this is Prabhupada’s spectacle.” Similarly, when we see anything, we should think that this “belongs to Krishna.”
  • Srila Prabhupada gave meaning of the prayer “Nikuñja-yūno rati-keli-siddhyai yā yālibhir yuktir apekṣaṇīyā” as book distribution.
  • As material energy is very absorbing, similarly book distribution is very absorbing.
  • In this verse SB 11.7.22, Krishna is saying human life is very dear to me, so, if someone helps a human being to remember Krishna then he becomes very dear to Krishna.
  • One person shared that he once saw “Bhagavad Gita As It Is” on a bookshelf at his grandmother’s house. He asked his grandmother how you got the book then she said that I do not know how I got this. The person liked the book and began reading it. And just by reading the book the person became a devotee of Krishna and opened a temple.

Srimad Bhagavatam Class by Srila Prabhupada on 5th Dec 2025

Important Points from Translation & Purport

Lord Kapila says:

  • Yoga helps to concentrate the mind.
  • By practicing yoga one can become joyful and progressively advance towards the path of the Absolute Truth.

Important Points from the Class

  1. Asato mā sad gamaḥ. Tamasi mā jyotir gamaḥ: “Don’t keep yourself in darkness. Make progress towards the light.”
  2. yoga process is to keep the mind in peaceful condition, tranquility, and then you can concentrate your mind towards the Supreme Absolute.
  3. The real meaning of yoga = yoga indriya-saṁyamaḥ. The authorities of yoga practice, they say the yoga practice means to control the senses. That is the yoga practice.
  4. There are twelve authorized persons who can give you real knowledge of spiritual life. It was spoken by Yamarāja to the servants who went to take Ajāmila to hellish condition of life, and he was saved by the Viṣṇudūta.

svayaṁbhur nāradaḥ śambhuḥ
kapila kumār manuḥ
prahlādo janako bhīṣmo
balir vaiyāsakir vayam
[SB 6.3.20]

  • If at the end of life you can remember Nārāyaṇa, then life is successful. You go back to home, back to Godhead – ante nārāyaṇa smṛtiḥ [SB 2.1.6]
  • Brāhmaṇa’s business is paṭhan pāṭhan yajan yājan dāna pratigraha. A brāhmaṇa should be personally very highly learned scholar. Therefore brāhmaṇa is called paṇḍita.
  • “We are also giving our student position as brāhmaṇa, but if he remains a fool number one, then we are misusing our attempt. He should be very learned scholar. That should be the aim. And there is no difficulty to become a learned scholar, because we have got so many books. You simply read and digest what we are speaking. Not that we are simply meant for selling books. We are reading. We must read. Then our position as brāhmaṇa will be fulfilled. Because brāhmaṇas are teacher. Anyone who can teach, he is brāhmaṇa. So unless you read thoroughly what you are going to speak to the world, how you can become a brāhmaṇa and paṇḍita? You should carefully note this.”
  • By the yoga practice you have to make your mind very transparent, clean, and then you can go towards sat-patham, eternal life. 
  • So Bhagavad-gītā teaches us that anyone, if he worships the Supreme Personality of Godhead by sva-dharma, by his occupational duty, he also becomes perfect. For example, just like Arjuna. He was a military man, and his sva-dharma, his occupational duty, was to fight. So that fighting capacity he engaged himself in the service of Kṛṣṇa, and he became a devotee. 
  • So that is the trick—how we shall always think of Kṛṣṇa even we are engaged in our occupation duty. That will make us perfect. Actually, real sva-dharma is to be attached to Kṛṣṇa. 
  • Anything which does not help me in serving Kṛṣṇa, if we give it up, and anything which helps me to serve Kṛṣṇa, if we accept, in that way if we live, then gradually we become situated in our original constitutional position, eternal servant of God.

ataḥ pumbhir dvija-śreṣṭhā
varṇāśrama-vibhāgaśaḥ
svanuṣṭhitasya dharmasya
saṁsiddhir hari-toṣaṇam
[SB 1.2.13]

Srimad Bhagavatam Class by Srila Prabhupada on 9st Dec 2025

Important Points from Translation & Purport

  • Time factor is the Supreme Personality of Godhead
  • Creation begins as a result of the agitation of the neutral, unmanifested nature.

Important Points from the Class

  • Prakṛter guṇa-sāmyasya nirviśeṣasya. Guṇa-sāmya. When the three modes of material nature is not agitated, it is in the neutral stage, guṇa-sāmya. The guṇa-sāmya… The Buddha philosophy is… The highest goal is guṇa-sāmya, where there is no manifestation by the agitation of the guṇas. That is their ultimate goal, guṇa-sāmya, nirvāṇa. On account of agitation of the three guṇas, these manifestations are there, and that is called viśeṣa. Viśeṣa means varieties. And nirviśeṣa or nirvāṇa—practically the same thing = “Finish these varieties and again become nirviśeṣa, no variety, neutral stage.” That is the highest perfection of Buddha philosophy, nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi.
  • There are two kinds of atheistic philosophers. One is nirviśeṣa, and the other is śūnyavādi. So my students, therefore, they address, nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi-pāścātya-deśa-tāriṇe. So whole world is nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi.
  • There are many big, big philosophers writing on zero. They believe in zero, but they write volumes of books. Why you are wasting time writing volumes of books on zero? After all, if you are going to be zero, remain zero. So zero means disgust.
  • When the Supreme Personality of Godhead glanced over the prakṛti, mahat-tattva, then the three guṇas agitated, and she begins to give birth in so many varieties of the twenty-four elements. We have already discussed the twenty-four elements. The ingredients are there. That is prakṛti. And pradhāna means when they are not manifest, and prakṛti means when they are manifest. And prakṛti, pradhāna, and above them, there is the puruṣa. That puruṣa is Bhagavān, sa bhagavān. 
  • Therefore the puruṣa who gives birth to these material varieties, that is Lord Śiva, and the prakṛti which gives birth to these varieties, that is Durgā.
  • So when Kṛṣṇa comes in touch with prakṛti for giving birth of these varieties of forms of life, that is Śiva. That is Śiva. Śiva is not different from Kṛṣṇa, but still, Śiva is not Kṛṣṇa. This is called inconceivable one and different. 
  • The Supreme Personality of Godhead does not come directly in touch with this prakṛti, but the form by which He touches this prakṛti, that is Lord Śiva. Therefore Lord Śiva is not different from the Supreme Personality of Godhead; at the same time, he is not the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
  • So kāla, time factor, is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. It is above these twenty-four ingredients of material elements. It is in between the spiritual element and the material element, via media, that kāla. This is the description of kāla.
  • So the male part is Bhagavān, and the female part is the prakṛti, and combination of puruṣa and prakṛti is the varieties of creation. This is Sāṅkhya philosophy. 
  • The manifestation of prakṛti, cosmic manifestation, is there to give the living entities another chance for liberation.
  • So if we civilized people, we give up this Āryan literature or Vedic literature and take to Jashushi[?] literature to waste our time, sex literature, then we are committing suicide.
  • So people should be enlightened, that “Don’t remain asleep.” Uttiṣṭhata jāgrata prāpya varān nibodhata [Kaṭha Upaniṣad 1.3.14]. “Now you are civilized human being. You can read and write. You can understand.” So jāgrata: “Now get up, be awakened.

Important Points from Translation & Purport

Important points from the class

So this internal spirit soul is coming from the Supreme Soul. Therefore it is said, daivāt kṣubhita-dharmiṇyāṁ svasyāṁ yonau paraḥ pumān.

So one has to complete the term of one particular type of body. That is the law of nature. So they remain in dormant stage in the body of Mahā-Viṣṇu at the time of dissolution. Prakṛtiṁ yānti māmikām [Bg. 9.7], in the Bhagavad-gītā it is said. Prakṛtiṁ yānti māmi… Then, at the time of creation, they come out again in the same body as it was in the last creation. Therefore Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura says, anādi karama-phale, paḍi’ bhavārṇava-jale. Of course, the evolution takes place, but at the time of creation the particular type of body which I inherited in my last birth or millennium I get again, and again begin evolution. This is the process, going on. Bhūtvā bhūtvā pralīyate [Bg. 8.19]. The dissolution takes place.

Srimad Bhagavatam Class by HG Acaryaratna Prabhu on 15th Dec 2025

Important Points from Translation & Purport

  • All people within the material world are burning in the great forest fire of lust and greed, you remain free and are not burned by that fire.
  • As described in Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta, kṛṣṇa-bhakta niṣkāma ataeva śānta.

Important points from Class

  • Everyone is burning in the forest fire of lust and greed.
  • Suppose that even one finger is burned then how much pain one experiences
  • In USA, forest fire is very common. When it comes then people has to pack bags and run away. Once everyone had packed their stuffs and going by their vehicle but there was traffic jam, people got stuck and got burnt to death.
  • Lust is perverted reflection of love.
  • If lust is unfulfilled then it transforms into anger and if fulfilled, then it transforms into greed.
  • Lust is born out of ignorance.
  • For sake of recognition or glorification people even give their life.
  • People are motivated by name, fame, glory. This is extended lust.
  • As long as we think ourselves as body, mind, intelligence, lawyer, doctor, engineer one cannot give up lust.
  • Only when one understands that I am spirit soul, servant of Krishna.
  • Yogi may perform tapasy for thousands of years but may not be free from lust.
  • When we understand we servant of Krishna then we should engage thoroughly in service of Krishna.
  • Serving humanity is not also love. It is also lust.
  • We may say we love this or that one will be burning.
  • But when one begins engaging in Krishna’s service they become happy.
  • In US, MIT, students were from different religious backround – Americans, Europeans, Chinese, Busshist, Bangladesh and they liked mantra meditation.
  • KC gives immediate result.
  • Loving Krishna is natural but because of ignorance we are not doing so.
  • Because of Tilotama two brothers foungth and killed each other.
  • With great effort one can give up lust but are still not able to give up puja, labha, pratistha.
  • Love is more powerful than lust, we see example of Haridas Thakura who was easily able to conquer lust because he had love for Krishna.
  • Complete lust can be given up only by KC.

Srimad Bhagavatam Class by HG Prema Svarupa Prabhu on 19th Dec 2025

Important Points from the Class

  • Sometimes when we do not get desired, then we lose our aim and goal and distracted.
  • If one is able to tolerate material miseries then one can attain the ultimate goal.
  • One who is able to tolerate on the path of devotion to Krishna can eventually attain the lotus feet of Krishna.
  • If we had practice continuous bhkati then develop tolerance.
  • If you do not forgive then we cannot tolerate.
  • Tolerance means to forget, not to be like pressure cooker.
  • Not expressing is an etiquette, but it does not mean that we have forgiven the person.
  • When we remain in the association of devotees then if someone alerts us when we are deviating then we become cautious and then come to the right path.
  • Devotee should know the art of converting extreme feeling of anger into attaining Krishna. Eg. Dhruv Maharaj.
  • If anyone is torturing us then we should know that he/she is helpless and is being sanctioned by the Lord.
  • Why Lord came for Prahlad and not for the demigods? Lord knows that when everything is fine then demigods are enjoying. Now Hiranyakasipu by torturing demigods is helping them in their devotional life because by being tortured they are again and again going to the Lord.
  • Haridas Thakura was although being beaten at 22 market place then he was praying Lord to forgive the perpetrator. But Haridas Thakura was not harmed a bit.
  • Prahlada and Haridas Thakura was not at all in misery even though being tortured.
  • Prahlada was not a weak person but a kind person. He had all the strength but he was forgiving.
  • Lord Narasimhadeva was thinking that which pillar Prahlad would point and so when Prahlada pointed to one pillar then Lord entered there.
  • We should know that whatever is happening is being sanctioned by the Lord. As we grow in our spiritual life, Lord intervention also increases. And there are Lord’s material energies like Durga Devi, material nature are there which is giving us trouble.
  • We should know what is the goal of my life do we want to serve Krishna or enjoy the world.
  • As long as we want to be enjoyer then maya comes and starts punishing us. Krishna is bhoktaram. Material nature gives 3 miseries – adidaivik, adibhautik, adhyatmic – if we do not surrender to the lord.
  • Law of nature is so strong that we cannot escape it.
  • Cause of disturbance is because we do not accept that Krishna is the only enjoyer.
  • This world is made for sense gratification – not for us but for Krishna.
  • Everyday we should see if my attachment to Krishna is increasing or not.
  • When there is love then one can rise above ego.
  • When goal is clear in life then a person never deviates.
  • When one has to get into IIT/NIIT then one works tremendously hard for 2 -3 hours, gives up TV, party, friend circle. And when someone says something to him then he says that I do not want to lose focus.
  • If someone wants to change the position and go somewhere else then based on our karma, some other person will be arranged to give us trouble. Everyone is instrument of our karma and they are purifying us.
  • We should think why Lord gave that person empowerment to trouble us. Lord has given them strength to punish us. We should contemplate and think why Lord has put me into such a situation.
  • Tolerance at every step will take us closer to Krishna.
  • We have to see why Krishna is doing this to me. This will help us to understand our present situation and will take us towards Krishna.

Srimad Bhagavatam Class by HG Vrindavancari Prabhu on 27th Dec 2025

  • Verse Number: SB 11.7.43
  • Chapter Name: Lord Krishna instructs Uddhava

Important Points from Translation & Purport

  • The spirit soul is not actually changed or affected by contact with the material nature.
  • Although, the spirit soul is impelled by the three modes of nature created by eternal time, his eternal spiritual nature is never actually affected.
  • The spirit soul, being most subtle, is not actually affected; only due to misidentification with the superficial activities of the body and mind does the soul undergo terrible distress within the material world.

Important points from the Class

  1. True knowledge of soul is covered.
  2. Souls is first covered by avarnatika sakti and the soul forgets his real identity.
  3. Person identifies with material body, thinking I am black, short and so on.
  4. People are in so much distress – few months back, there was dispute between husband and wife and wife jumped from 13th floor and died in Ellita Garden.
  5. Living entities should struggle to revive their divine qualities which gets covered.
  6. Spark out of fire is black, similarly the livening entities lose his wonderful qualities away from the Lord.
  7. Acharyas exhibits divine qualities without any struggle because of their relationship with Krishna.
  8. The six goswamis would be Krishna Conscious all the time. Raghunath Das Goswami would take just few drops of milk.
  9. Since Srila Prabhupada had divine qualities, everyone got attracted to him and surrendered.
  10. Morning program is to make us fiery. Our goal is to become Krishna Conscious 24 hours in a day, we should be fiery 24 hours.
  11. In the beginning one has to struggle to be Krishna Conscious but slowly it becomes natural and spontaneous. First, we should have enthusiasm in Krishna consciousness, for this we should have inspiration in our life. Unless we have role models, we won’t be able to have enthusiasm. We should have inspiration, take association of devotees, take help of others. Have role model in practice of Krishna Consciousness,  then it will be easier else it will be difficult. We should have seniors and superiors with whom we can consult. Whether we like it or not we should do it.
  12. Whatever services we do is for reviving our KC – book distribution, deity service, going out for program. Whatever we are doing, we should see if we are developing attachment for Krishna or not. If because of laziness we are not sincere in our devotional life then we will not develop attachment for Krishna. Whatever services we do is to “always remember Krishna and never forget Krishna.” If we are lazy in Kc then it takes time but if we enthusiastic in practicing and sharing and then by mercy of acharyas and SP we can revive our KC. We should give up those things which are prohibited – sinful and offensive activities. We should be careful in the morning time and especially during the day time. Sound vibration is very important – hearing is very important. We should be inspired by our role models.
  13. SP gave us a schedule that is centered around Krishna. Morning program and then services centered around Krishna.

Srimad Bhagavatam Class by HG Anand Vardhan on 29th Dec 2025

  • Verse Number: SB 11.7.45
  • Chapter Name: Lord Krishna instructs Uddhava

Important Points from Translation & Purport

  • Saintly persons become powerful by execution of austerities.
  • Their consciousness is unshakable because they do not try to enjoy anything within the material world.
  • Liberated sages accept foodstuffs that are offered to them by destiny.

Important Points from class

  1. One person asked HH RNSM that many times people feel lonely. He asked Maharaj that you were travelling when you came to India and had no security then Maharaj said he never contemplated that he is lonely. Maharaj further said that a person experiences loneliness when he looks for happiness outside the world, from outside people, and outside things. Unless we do not have internal absorption, we will feel alone.
  2. Before dealing with other people, first get in good terms with yourself.
  3. Internal absorption is our relationship with Krishna and with our spiritual master. It is more important than dealing with outside people.
  4. If we are disturbed within then how we are going to deal properly with others.
  5. If we are not able to bring out our emotions outside, then that turns into depression. Suppressed anger leads to depression too.
  6. When earlier sannyasis would be wandering alone then it was not that they were alone, Paramatma was always with them.
  7. The person again asked HH RNSM that you did not have much personal interaction with SP but still you served him in an extraordinary way. Maharaj said that SP’s vani and by associating with his disciples I associated with SP. Prabhupada also said that he never remained even for a moment separated from his spiritual master.
  8. Prabhupada struggled a lot. Once David in USA attacked Prabhupada and he had run away for his life and came on the streets.
  9. Maharaj said as we kept on completing the services given by SP the more we experienced presence of SP. 
  10. Guru may not be personally present, we may not have his physical association but if we are associating with him through vani then that is real association. Guru is present in his vani, teachings. SP is present in his deity and in his vani. So, if we are hearing from our guru and from SP then we are actually associating with our guru and SP.  Krishna is present in his holy names, the Hare Krishna Mahamantra.
  11. Eating to live and living to eat both are different. Most of the people live for eating.
  12. Should we drown ourselves in sense gratification like a firefly/moth burns itself in the fire. Life’s purpose is not sense gratification.
  13. As per Ayurved, people do not die because of less eating or do not become ill because of less eating.
  14. One girl ate so much pizza and burger that there was hole in her intestine and she died eventually.  
  15. Eating is fine but overeating is condemned.
  16. One who does not experience satisfaction within starts looking for satisfaction outside in sense gratification, in eating, in name, fame and so on.
  17. Saying “no” always to mind is not good. But if we do Krishna conscious austerity and engage mind accordingly then mind is purified.
  18. When HH BCSM was doing Bengali translation of SP books that he would sleep for very few hours and whole night he would be doing translation service. Even after book service got completed, still he continued the same time table.
  19. If someone commits offenses then everything gets destroyed – spiritual as well as material.
  20. In Goloko Vrindavan, devotees serve other devotees the way they serve Radha and Krishna.
  21. We are fortunate that we get an opportunity to associate with SP’s disciples.

Srimad Bhagavatam Class by HG Jivananda Prabhu on 30th Dec 2025

  • Verse Number: SB 11.7.46
  • Chapter Name: Lord Krishna instructs Uddhava

Important Points from Class

  • Saintly persons are like fire. Sometimes it looks like fire is gone but the fire is hidden.
  • 1975 at San Fransico RY, SP gave classes 3 days in a row, SP paused for a moment. One of the sannyasis said laides should take children go out. Next day too the same thing and the next day too, there was SB class on who should be punished. It was mentioned elderly person, children and sanitly person should be taken out. SP said no. SP said, here I am old, children and saintly persons. Ladies were giggling then SP, said do not take it lightly.
  • This room is filled with saintly person, out of humility we may thingk I am not a saintly person.  We are all saintly people, part and parcel of Krishna.
  • We lways wanting something. We feel something is missing. I want a better job, better car, wife, then my hankering should be fulfilled.
  • People buy iphone, if we hav 14 , we feel better and then we get 15 and it makes people happy. And then 16 comes. Material life is like that always hankering.
  • We aways remain in void, we think someday it will be better, I will be fulfilled.
  • The real thing is to have our relationship with Krishna back.
  • We think that by working hard we will be better than other and I will be happy.
  • One man wanted more and more. Narada Muni came to the person and asked him to come to Vaikuntha. The person said I have many things to do I will go later. When Narada Muni came later, he was much richer now, he was old. But still he refused to go with Narada Muni to Vaikuntha saying that my children are mature enough to take care of the wealth and proprietor. When Narada Muni came then his sons said, he left the body couple of years back. When Narada Muni started leaving, a dog came to him barking and said that I am the same person, and I am now guiding the fortune. But still he refused to go with Narada Muni saying that he has to protect the fortune. And few years later when Narada Muni came then a big cobra came, hissing. The snake said that I am the same person. He said that I am protecting the grains. Narada Muni seeing his sons coming, said that there is snake and the sons killed the snake. Now when the soul was coming out and then Narada Muni said will you now come with me and he said yes.
  • Krishna says I am the ability in man. We are able to do because of Krishna. It is not depending upon our beauty, intelligence.
  • We came here to enjoy separately from Krishna. Our fire of love of godhead has died down. It is still there but very feeble.
  • Devotees can ignite that fire. We experience when we meet with devotees, read SP books that we start feeling like different person. The real you start coming out.
  • We have full faith in maya, that we will some fortune, some satisfying situation. We hanker for fame thinking that when we get we will feel happy, satisfied and will be at peace. But this is never going to happen. One time Jeff bezos had billions of dollars, had yachts. But it would have given some happiness. But later he got divorce and it was most expensive divorce. And now again he is working hard. If it did not work for those having billions of dollars, then how it is going to work for you.
  • We may not be perfect yet, but we are taking steps.
  • When we are sick, we go to doctor, he gives medicine and therapy. And we start becoming healthy. And slowly we recover and we are dismissed from the hospital.
  • We associate with SP daily, see Gaur Nitai, read SP books, we are becoming slowly purified.
  • Even a little bit of progress will save us from so much suffering.
  • This is why we want to share KC with everyone.
  • Having siksha guru is very important because we may not always get association of Diksha.,
  • Shiksha guru is one who is aligned with Diksha guru. We ask question to Siksha guru and we get answer of Diksha guru because he is aligned to Diksha guru.
  • Give yourself to other people then only you will be happy.
  • Life without service to others has no meaning. We may want wealth to help people in their KC.
  • Gratifying senses is natural to us. In Goloka Vrindavan we satisfy our senses but it is transcendental sense gratification. Krishna wants loving exchange.
  • We can’t enjoy in this world. But if we offer to Krishna then yes. Like if we prepare sweet rice and then offer to Krishna and then we enjoy.  Prasadam is transcendental sense gratification. Seeing deity is transcendental sense gratification. Hearing kirtan, aroma of flowers, fragrance of incense are transcendental sense gratification.
  • We have to transcendentalize our sense gratification.
  • We should recognize other devotees qualities knowing that the ability comes from Krishna.
  • SBSST said that before criticizing other devotees we should first give 10 compliments. We should deal with outside world also with compassion.
  • Krishna wanted Arjuna to become angry so that he could fight the ghastly war.
  • We should be always conscious that Krishna is always with us and that is Krishna Consciousness. He is there with us as Paramatma in the core of our heart.
  • We should be honest with ourselves. Good to catch ourselves when we do wrong. We should admit our mistake, that we should not have said this or would have done this. It is good to say sorry to others if we have done something wrong.
