More quotes by Radhanath Swami
What really pleases the Spiritual Master is our intent and the quality of our character.
Radhanath Swami
There cannot be love without trust and there cannot be trust unless we take the responsibility to act in a way that people can trust us.
Radhanath Swami
Devotees are not impressed by the poverty or wealth in material sense in any way what impresses is devotion.
Radhanath Swami
Our humble service attitude in our life is what determines what effect chanting will have on our consciousness. Otherwise we can be chanting for millions and millions of births before we actually achieve the goal.
Radhanath Swami
If you love God, you can't hate anything or anyone. If the love one offers is met with hate, it doesn't die, rather it manifests in the form of compassion. That is universal love. It is not just a sentiment. It cannot be manifested merely by a shift in mental disposition. It can only come from inner cleaning, an inner awakening.
Radhanath Swami
Humility is not a part of devotional service, it is the heart of devotional service.

Radhanath Swami
Reducing carbon emissions is important, but it is shortsighted if not coupled with reducing the toxic emissions from our heart and that is something spiritual leaders are supposed to teach and something all thinking people, regardless of their beliefs, should practice.
Radhanath Swami
The Ultimate expression of Humility comes when we control our senses.
Radhanath Swami
Spirituality is revival of our God consciousness, not creating something new.
Radhanath Swami
Pure love of God is our nature, but we are so much diverted, so much distracted by the externals that we've forgotten that it's our essence.
Radhanath Swami
The challenge of co-operation in today's age of quarrel can be achieved by adjusting every situation according to the higher principle of loving God.
Radhanath Swami
Do not think that if you surrender to God you will be loser. You will not lose anything except bondage, frustration and suffering. That is all you will lose.
Radhanath Swami
Real religion is not about being a Christian or a Jew or a Muslim. Real religion is about loving God, & dedicating ones life to be an instrument of Gods compassion, kindness towards other living beings.
Radhanath Swami
Fierce Determination and Gentle Humility are the ornaments which make one attractive in the eyes of the Lord.
