| One can understand Me as I am, as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, only by devotional service. And when one is in full consciousness of Me by such devotion, he can enter into the kingdom of God. Conclusion — The Perfection of Renunciation |
| BG 18.55 |
| When the world is overburdened by the fighting strength of kings who have no faith in God, the Lord, just to diminish the distress of the world, descends with His plenary portion. The Lord comes in His original form, with beautiful black hair. And just to expand His transcendental glories, He acts extraordinarily. No one can properly estimate how great He is. Scheduled Incarnations with Specific Functions |
| SB 2.7.26 |
| Åšukadeva GosvÄmÄ« replied: My dear King, the cursing of the brÄhmaṇas was only a plea, but the actual fact was the supreme desire of the Lord. He wanted to disappear from the face of the earth after dispatching His excessively numerous family members. He thought to Himself as follows. Vidura Approaches Maitreya |
| SB 3.4.29 |
| O my Lord, Your devotees can see You through the ears by the process of bona fide hearing, and thus their hearts become cleansed, and You take Your seat there. You are so merciful to Your devotees that You manifest Yourself in the particular eternal form of transcendence in which they always think of You. Brahma's Prayers for Creative Energy |
| SB 3.9.11 |
| Due to ignorance, the materialistic person does not know anything about his real self-interest, the auspicious path in life. He is simply bound to material enjoyment by lusty desires, and all his plans are made for this purpose. For temporary sense gratification, such a person creates a society of envy, and due to this mentality, he plunges into the ocean of suffering. Such a foolish person does not even know about this. Lord Rishabhadeva's Teachings to His Sons |
| SB 5.5.16 |
| O most unfortunate PrahlÄda, you have always described a supreme being other than me, a supreme being who is above everything, who is the controller of everyone, and who is all-pervading. But where is He? If He is everywhere, then why is He not present before me in this pillar? Lord Nrisimhadeva Slays the King of the Demons |
| SB 7.8.12 |
| O Lord, cause of all causes, if Your transcendental body were not beyond the modes of material nature, one could not understand the difference between matter and transcendence. Only by Your presence can one understand the transcendental nature of Your Lordship, who are the controller of material nature. Your transcendental nature is very difficult to understand unless one is influenced by the presence of Your transcendental form. Prayers by the Demigods for Lord Krishna in the Womb |
| SB 10.2.35 |
| But although You reside within the heart, You are very far away from those whose minds are disturbed by their entanglement in material work. Indeed, no one can grasp You by his material powers, for You reveal Yourself only in the hearts of those who have learned to appreciate Your transcendental qualities. Arjuna Kidnaps Subhadra, and Krishna Blesses His Devotees |
| SB 10.86.47 |
| Everyone in this world has recently been born and will soon die. So how can anyone here know Him who existed prior to everything else and who gave rise to the first learned sage, BrahmÄ, and all subsequent demigods, both lesser and greater? When He lies down and withdraws everything within Himself, nothing else remains — no gross or subtle matter or bodies composed of these, no force of time or revealed scripture. The Prayers of the Personified Vedas |
| SB 10.87.24 |
| Arjuna felt great distress over separation from Lord Kṛṣṇa, his dearmost friend. But he consoled himself by remembering the transcendental words the Lord had sung to him. The Disappearance of Lord Sri Krishna |
| SB 11.31.21 |

| CC 1.4.30 |
| The disciples of the Bhaá¹á¹ÄcÄrya said, “We derive knowledge of the Absolute Truth by logical hypothesis.†The Liberation of Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya |
| CC 2.6.81 |
| GopÄ«nÄtha Ä€cÄrya replied, “Knowledge of the summum bonum, the Absolute Truth, is evidence of the mercy of the Supreme Lord.†The Liberation of Sarvabhauma Bhattacarya |
| CC 2.6.89 |
| After embracing RÄmÄnanda RÄya, the Lord pacified him, informing him, “But for you, no one has ever seen this form.†Talks Between Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Ramananda Raya |
| CC 2.8.285 |
| Dear mind, do not bewilder yourself by anxiously thinking, How can I cross this fathomless and impassable ocean of material existence? There is one who can save you—Devotion. If you offer her to the lotus-eyed Lord, the killer of NarakÄsura, she will carry you across this ocean without fail. Mukunda-mala-stotra |
| MM 12 |
| Having obtained pure love of God, one looks only at the Lord, hears only about Him, speaks only of Him, and thinks only of Him. Narada Bhakti Sutra |
| NBS 55 |
| The reason devotional service is the easiest of all spiritual processes is that it does not depend on any other authority for its validity, being itself the standard of authority. Narada Bhakti Sutra |
