Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you catch up Krishna\u2019s lotus feet very tightly, then you will not fall down.<\/p>\n<p>This life of material existence is just like hard wood, and if we can carve Krishna out of it, that is the success of our life.<\/p>\n<p>If you want perfection in your business, then you must try to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Otherwise you are simply wasting your time.<\/p>\n<p>One who seeks pleasure externally, he is materialist, and one who seeks pleasure internally, he is spiritualist.<\/p>\n<p>Everyone is being controlled by God, but a devotee is so exalted that Krishna says, \u201cI wish to be controlled by you.\u201d This is Krishna\u2019s position.<\/p>\n<p>Cleanliness is next to Godliness. This point should be very carefully observed, and then you will advance very quickly to the perfectional stage of Krishna consciousness.<\/p>\n<p>It is better not to have a fruit tree than to have a poison fruit tree.<\/p>\n<p>Any nonsense you do and if you say, \u201cIt is the latest fashion,\u201d everyone will do.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who carries Krishna within himself, constantly, can go anywhere and turn the place into a sacred pilgrimage.<\/p>\n<p>Think of Krishna always and try to work sincerely, and everything will come automatically.<\/p>\n<p>If by the tongue you chant Hare Krishna mantra, and by the tongue you taste prasadam, you will be perfect, simply by executing these two things.<\/p>\n<p>If one is a poor man, he can go to some friends\u2019 house and accept food and then come back, but one should never accept residence in other\u2019s house. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.dandavats.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/uxwxwd.jpg\" alt=\"Hare Krishna\" \/><strong>By HDG Srila Prabhupada<\/strong><\/p>\n<p> Anyone who carries Krishna within himself, constantly, can go anywhere and turn the place into a sacred pilgrimage.
