• This human body, among all species of life, is the only one capable of performing devotional service to the Lord. • The conditioned soul is focused on sense gratification: eating, sleeping, mating and defending itself. • Srila Gurudeva, through an analogy with a necklace and its reflection in water, teaches that this material world is like an imperfect and contaminated copy of the spiritual world. • The abode of the Supreme Lord, Goloka Vrndavana, is a beautiful place, free from the three miseries of Maya: adhyatmika, adhibhautika and adhidavika. • The chanting of the Holy Names taught by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu – Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare – is the effective process for attaining Goloka Vrndavana.
