Is It Cultured For Women to Lecture Before Men?

One social wrong isn’t corrected by another social wrong. If the men behave badly, it’s not by the women behaving badly that it makes it all right. If you work it on this man-woman principle, on the mundane, this element of equality, then the women are always better at it. There is no sense of equality here, it is a matter of the women already have 90%. They want half of the 10% that is left.

Relationships Are Based on Human Culture

Even though Kṛṣṇa can do anything and everything, He doesn’t. He is the son of Mahārāja Nanda. He can do anything because He is God. But he goes to sleep when Mother Yaśodā puts Him to sleep. He gets up when she wakes Him.

Don’t Goof Around in Dharma

We are not gopīs, we are not at the rāsa dance. So we should not goof around as gopīs. Otherwise, we will not attain that platform by which Kṛṣṇa will goof on the gopīs.

Devotees and Astrology

The Unique Position and Glories of the Govardhana Hill

Simultaneously he is Kṛṣṇa and he is the best devotee. Kṛṣṇa Himself personally has expanded as Govardhana Hill.

He Is a Saint – This is My Command – Part 1 (Ācāryas’ Purports on Bhagavad-gītā 9.30-31)

The Lord does not take seriously an accidental falldown because the devotee is determined to continue his service despite the obstacles placed by his conditioned nature. In the case of an accidental falldown the only prāyaścitta for a devotee is devotional service itself.
