If we see the body we live in as a temple used to engage in beautiful activities in the service of God's children, then we recognize it as spiritual. But if we use our body for more selfish purposes, then we're only experiencing its material conception.
Radhanath Swami

Radhanath Swami
We can not imitate great souls. However to study, analyse and imbibe the principles they teach and embody, is the path of progress.
Radhanath Swami
Moon is like Soul. Clouds are like all the situations in our life, relationships, youth, etc. Wind is like the Time. Just like the wind moves the clouds, Time moves all the situations in our life. But the soul is always the same and not on the temporary situations. One who focuses on soul is a moon-like person.
Radhanath Swami

Radhanath Swami
If our mind is in conflict, not balanced with our body and with the needs of the soul, then there is a fundamental disunity in our life. Only if we have unity within ourselves, we can create unity in the world around us. You can't give something you don't have, even if you have all good intentions
Radhanath Swami
Responsibility means to perform our service properly,with proper attitude, behavior and words.
