Quotes from Srila Prabhupada's teachings


vanipedia.org 		As soon as they can read Sanskrit and English, they should read our books, such as Bhagavad-gita As It Is. By cleansing the temple and growing flowers their attention in this way be always in Krsna consciousness. That will save them from the clutches of maya. (Letter, 16 October 1973, Bombay)



vanipedia.org 		I see in the small cottages they are living very, very happily. The cows are grazing, and the male members are doing the work. Local flowers are used for the garlands. (Letter, 5 October 1974, Mayapur)



vanipedia.org 		That you are growing all your own grains is very good. It is my ambition that all devotees may remain self independent by producing vegetables, grains, milk, fruits, flowers, and by weaving their own cloth in handlooms. This simple life is very nice. Simple village life saves time for other engagements like chanting the Hare Krishna Maha Mantra. (Letter, 23 August 1976, Hyderabad)
