Dear Friends and Patrons

"So first thing is to become knowledgeable in Krishna Consciousness, then the tapasya or voluntary life of austerity will result automatically. So I am requesting all of my students to read my books very seriously every day without fail." - Srila Prabhupada - 13 June, 1972, Los Angeles,

BHAGAVAD GITA AS IT IS - Chapter A Day (CHAD)

"As Arjuna set aside his bow and arrows, let us set aside any sense of confidence in our own abilities so that we may hear Krsna's words with full heart and attention.This kind of submissive hearing is the primary requirement for advancement in spiritual life. The devotee who hears Krsna's words with a submissive heart immediately feels an ingress of causeless knowledge and detachment." - H. G. Vaisesika Prabhu
