Above all, does the Supreme Lord Sri Hari deny protection to those who approach him?

चीराणि किं पथि न सन्ति दिशन्ति भिक्षां

नैवाङ्घ्रिपाः पर-भृतः सरितो'प्य् अशुष्यन्

रुद्धा गुहाः किम् अजितोऽवति नोपसन्नान्

कस्माद् भजन्ति कवयो धन-दुर्मदान्धान्

 

Are there no rags lying on the common road ? Do the trees, which exist only to maintain others, no longer give alms in charity? Have the rivers dried up ? Are the caves of the mountains now closed, or, above all, does the Supreme Lord Sri Hari deny protection to those who approach him? Why then should the wise knock at the door of those who are blind with the pride of wealth ?

I secure what is not already possessed and preserve what they already possess

 

The path of Bhakthi is lyrical and full of beauty. That is why it is recommended to all.

 

The path of Bhakti is, undoubtedly, the easiest of all mărgas to attain Bhagavăn; not only for this Yuga (Age) but also for all Yugăs

 

"It is all right even if you do not hold your senses under control. Keep doing Năma Sankirtan. The 'indriyăs' (senses) will automatically come under control!"

 

Be simple, egoless and innocent like a child and have entire trust in Him, and He is yours. Have His Name on your lips.

 

Chant and pray with faith to Krishna and this is the easiest way for Divine grace

 

Guru is like a potter and a disciple is like a pot. A potter hits the pot from outside and provides every support from within.

 

Bhakti Yoga is an easy path - Sri Ramakrishna

 

To feel that you are His child be your supreme privilege,

 

I secure what is not already possessed and preserve what they already possess

 

Chant the Mahamantra Nama kirtan :

 

Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare
Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna Hare Hare
