Radhanath Swami
Essence of humility is unity.
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
Service is life. No service means, spiritually no life.

Things can give pleasure to the mind and senses, but only love can give pleasure to the heart. And ultimately, that is what we are looking for.
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

Radhanath Swami
The worst tragedy is that this uncontrolled mind steals our consciousness away from Krishna and that is the beginning, the essence of all suffering.

When love is pure, it has the power to conquer. Lover and beloved conquer each other by their affection. The source, the essence, the fullest manifestation of love's conquering power is the love of the soul for the supreme soul, or God.
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
What really pleases the Spiritual Master is our intent and the quality of our character.
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
The auspiciousness of any situation is how it brings us closer to Krishna
Radhanath Swami
Fierce Determination and Gentle Humility are the ornaments which make one attractive in the eyes of the Lord.

The more we are happy in Krishna Consciousness, the more we become purified.

Crying out to the lord is the only eternal reality within this temporary world.
