Surrender. Faith. Practice.
"Krishna Himself says in Srimad Bhagavad-gita, 'I created illusion, and unless you take shelter in Me this illusion will not be removed.' We do not know Krishna, we do not know Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, but we know our Gurudev..."

Lord Supplies and Lord Enjoys
"I have created everything for Myself, not for you. So, if you take something without giving it first to Me, you are taking stolen things. If I give you something, you can take it, otherwise not... If somebody is surrendered to Me, I personally carry everything for them."

Devotional Heart
"If we serve our Gurudev (serve not for our own interest, but for his interest), if surrender to Krishna, then we must get Krishna through that service. You do not need to think about yourself. If you think about Krishna, Krishna will thinking about you."

No Other Shelter
"We are suffering, and we want to remove this suffering. The only way is to fully surrender to Krishna. There is no other shelter. If you take shelter of the lotus feet of Gurudev, take shelter of the lotus feet of Krishna, then all suffering will be removed from you."

Devotees' Love
"Actually, a devotee's love and affection to Krishna is not like a shopkeeper's love. If you want to love Krishna, you will not ask Krishna for anything—you will worship Him, you will love Him."

Proceed and Increase
"We are covered now by illusion, but if we surrender fully to Gurudev and he blesses us, then we can actually proceed and increase our devotional life. Chant the Holy Name, keep good association, come to Nabadwip."

Come and Get
"Where will we get Krishna? In the lotus feet, or actually in the heart, of the Vaishnavs. I am inviting you all to our temple—come, join us. We have not come here for fooding and lodging, we have only come to say, "Say, 'Krishna'!! Please come with us!!"

Keep Good Connection
"When we take initiation from our Guru Maharaj, when we surrender to him, we should all follow his direction and his advice. Everybody should try to keep connection with Gurudev. Gurudev means his Mission, Gurudev means his lectures, his scriptures, books..."

Fundamentals

Association: Benefit or Pleasure?
"Srila Prabhupad Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur always said that there is preyo and there is sreyo. Preyo is what makes your mind happy, and sreyo is something that gives benefit to your life. But we do not know the value of things, we are like babies..."

Sri Gurudev's Protection
An extensive story that illustrates the extent to which a Guru goes to protect his surrendered disciple: 'If a servant somehow falls down and goes to some other place, glorious is the master who grabs him and brings him back by his hair.'

 

Jaya 'guru-maharaja'
'Seeing you chant the Holy Name with tulasi beads in hand, everyone remembers Prabhupad Srila Saraswati Thakur.'
জয় ‘গুরু-মহারাজ’

What did Gurudev keep us here for? He kept us here only to protect his temple,
to preach—for his mission.
