| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
| "Our program is to worship with love and devotion Govinda, the original person. Govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ. This is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. We are teaching people to love Kṛṣṇa, that's all. Our program is to love, to place your love in the proper place. That is our program. Everyone wants to love, but he is being frustrated on account of his love being misplaced. People do not understand it. They are being taught, 'First of all, you love your body'. Then little extended, 'You love your father and mother'. Then 'Love your brother and sister'. Then 'Love your society, love your country, love the whole human society, humanity'. But all this extended love, so-called love, will not give you satisfaction unless you reach to the point to love Kṛṣṇa. Then you'll be satisfied." |

| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
| "Kṛṣṇa and gopī, the relationship was so intimate and so unalloyed that Kṛṣṇa Himself admitted, 'My dear gopīs, it is not in My power to repay you about your loving affairs'. Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He became bankrupt, that 'My dear gopīs, it is not possible for Me to repay your debts which you have created by loving Me'. So that is the highest perfection of love. Ramyā kācid upāsanā vraja-vadhū (Caitanya-maṣjusā). I'm just describing the mission of Lord Caitanya. He's giving us instruction, His mission, that the only lovable object is Kṛṣṇa and His land Vṛndāvana. And the process of loving Him is the vivid example, the gopīs. Nobody can reach. There are different stages of devotees, and gopīs are supposed to be on the highest platform. And amongst the gopīs, the supreme is Rādhārāṇī. Therefore nobody can surpass the love of Rādhārāṇī." |
