Without spiritual culture a human society is another polished edition of the animals.
There is no value of education in the animal society as the trained up lion in a circus is never to be trusted.
The lion is not trusted because it cannot assimilate spiritual knowledge.
But a man is able to take up this knowledge and his formation of the brain is meant for it.
It is nothing extraordinary for him because he is prepared for this culture
and is awaiting proper administration only.

It is very good to take all risks for Krishna
but for our personal satisfaction we should not take the least risk.
…this act will enhance your glory in Krishna consciousness.

Misguided people are more interested in the matter of sense gratification
than in self-realization, which is the ultimate goal of life.

All our ailments are due to the external body. Although we have to suffer some time from bodily inconveniences specially in the old age, still if we are God conscious, we shall not feel the pangs. The best thing is therefore to Chant the holy Name of the Lord constantly.

Suppose you are a rich man's son and you have left your home, forgetting your father's property, home and happiness. And if some body gives you information about your paternal property of immense value which you can inherit by your birthright claim, will you neglect that friend? I am sure you will not. I am able to give you such important information.

Please do not be carried away by the misgiven mind to conclude that the present life is all in all. You are eternal, and the present form of human life is a chance of realizing your eternal life.
Do not spoil your life simply by serving the misgiven mind and the uncontrolled senses.
Please do not become your own enemy by your own self.

The Indians are not cow worshippers as others wrongly interpret it, but the Indians are gratitudeful to the species of cow for supplying milk to the human babies and the sentiment is so fine that simply for supplying milk the cow is accepted as one of the seven mothers. That is called Indian cultural mission.
