Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
"There are two conditions: pavitra and apavitraḥ. Pavitra means purified, and apavitraḥ means contaminated. We are all spirit soul. By nature we are purified, but at the present moment, in this material condition of life with this material body, we are contaminated.So this whole process of Kṛṣṇa consciousness is to liberate ourself from the contaminated state to the pure stage." |

Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
"We should always remember that we are trying to be elevated to the spiritual platform, so spiritual platform means no more anxiety for sense gratification. That is spiritual platform. Material platform means everyone is hankering after sense gratification, all the people they’re working day hard, day and night very hard, the aim is sex, at night. That’s all. Sense gratification." |

Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
"The quantity of consciousness is the difference between God and the living entity.Our consciousness is limited, and Kṛṣṇa's consciousness is unlimited, unfathomed. So we may have forgotten everything in our past life, but Kṛṣṇa does not forget. Kṛṣṇa keeps account every beat of your action. He is sitting in your heart: īśvaraḥ sarva-bhūtānāṁ hṛd-deśe 'rjuna tiṣṭhati (BG 18.61). He is keeping account. You wanted to do something. "All right," Kṛṣṇa says, "Do it." You wanted to become a tiger? "All right," Kṛṣṇa says, "you become a tiger, and you hunt animal and suck fresh blood, satisfy your senses." So Kṛṣṇa gives you chance. Similarly if you want to be Kṛṣṇa-ite, Kṛṣṇa conscious, and enjoy with Him, He will give you the facility. All facilities He will give you. If you want to become something, He will give you full facility. If you want to forget Him, He will give you so much intelligence that you will forget Him forever. And if you want to associate with Him, He will give you chance, personally association, just like the gopīs, the cowherd boys, playing with Kṛṣṇa." |
