– Srila Bhaktisidhanta Sarasvati Prabhupada is like the Moon, and all his disciples are like the moonbeams that spread the movement of nama sankirtana throughout the world.
– The disciple’s duty is to fulfill the Guru’s heart’s desire and preach.
– In this Kali-yuga, only by chanting the Holy Names will we be able to liberate ourselves from this ocean of Maya.
– Bhakti Hrdaya Bon Gosvami Maharaja established a University, preaching in both Europe and America, and wrote many books that required reading with a dictionary at hand due to their high-class language.
– Bhakti Hrdaya Bon Gosvami Maharaja learned German in just one week and once gave a three- to four-hour lecture in that language.
– Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu prophesied that one day all villages would chant the Holy Names Hare Krishna.
– Firm devotion and faith in Sri Guru are the backbone of our spiritual life.
– Srila Narayana Gosvami Maharaja arranged the fire ceremony, the robes, and the sannyasa danda for Swamiji Prabhupada.
– Swamiji Prabhupada received sannyasa from Bhakti Prajnana Kesava Gosvami Maharaja, and Srila Narayana Gosvami Maharaja greatly inspired him on that occasion, as Swamiji Prabhupada was already advanced in age and did not wish to take sannyasa on his own.
– To understand the relationship between Swamiji Prabhupada and Srimad BV Narayana Gosvami Maharaja, we should read the following books: “My Siksa Guru and Priya Bandhu” and “Letters to America”.
– If you have knowledge, you may obtain name, fame, and reputation, but Krishna bhakti will not manifest in your heart.

– The Holy Names are cintamani and can fulfill any wish, but Krishna-bhakti is something rare.
– The nama will give you the true fruit only when you have Guru-bhakti.
– Everyone should realize this mantra in their heart and not just repeat it like a parrot: “Dhyana-mulam guru murtih…”
