On the Way to Krsna Quotes

“As on this earth planet we have a multi variety of living entities, we can understand from Vedic literature that in the sun also there is a variety of living entities, but their bodies are made of fire, just as ours are made of earth. In material nature there are five gross elements: earth, water, air, fire and space.
In different planets there are different atmospheres due to one of these five elements prevailing, and there are different bodies for the living entities composed of whatever element may be predominant in a particular planet.”
― A.C. Prabhupāda, On the Way to Krsna

“He who is in Kṛṣṇa consciousness does not care for material distress, insult or honor because he is aloof from all these. … Socrates, for instance, who believed in the immortality of the soul, was condemned to death, and upon being asked how he would like to be buried, replied, “First of all you may have to catch me.” So one who knows that he is not the body is not disturbed, for he knows the soul cannot be caught, tortured, killed or buried. … He is not concerned with the modes of goodness, passion or ignorance, but with Kṛṣṇa. One who understands this is a jñānī, a wise man, and he is very much dear to Kṛṣṇa.”

“We should always remember that we read Bhagavad Gita as scripture, and whatever is spoken in Bhagavad Gita must be accepted, otherwise there is no reason in reading it.”
