S. BHAKTISIDDHANTA SARASWATI PRABHUPADA 1

Amrita Vani ... Nectar of Immortality Instructions by His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur ... 1
How can the infinite infinitesimal soul serve the Supreme Lord? (137)
The living entity is not a material object but an infinitesimal infinitesimal spiritual purpose ... Although jivas (souls) are tiny, still have the ability to serve the Lord ... It's unlimited nature and the constitutional prerogative of the soul to serve the Lord unlimited ... In this sense, the soul has the same power as the Lord ... A single spark, if supported by the fire which emanates, can let the whole world to ashes.
God Does it interfere with the independence of the living entity? (219)
The living entities are parts and fragmentary portions of the Lord supremely conscious. The qualities that are in the vast ocean, are also in a single drop of ocean water, only in tiny quantities ... So, as the Lord is supremely independent, the infinitesimal soul also has a tiny independence.
The living entities are not created but are eternal. The living entities are not the product of matter but are spiritual. So the independence of the living entities is not something that is imposed on them, if that is not his natural constitution ... The living entities suffering due to the misuse of this intrinsic independencia..El Supreme Lord does not interfere with the independence of any living entity, because he never cancels any spiritual characteristic of the entities vivientes..El Lord is an ocean of misericordia..Por That is why He tells how living entities properly or improperly use his independence ... Only those who listen His instructions in the scriptures and worshiping Him it and making appropriate use of gain independence ... perfection.
What does limit the Supreme Lord? (273)
Measure things, it means that I enjoy. ..to Be able to get real liberation, we must abandon the tendency to measure things with our senses.
Can we listen without having "ears inclined toward service"? (159)
The maha-mantra Hare Krishna is the predominant agent and ears are the predominant agent ... That means the maha-mantra Hare Krishna is the regulator and the Lord and ears are regulated or subordinates ... When the ears want to become the controller, we prevent engage in purely chanting and hearing about the importance ... It is not possible to sing and listen to a pure way of Hari, with ears that want to hear glorification of Hari, but in a spirit of enjoyment ... We must serve the purpose of service through inclined to serve senses ... Pretender hear through ears that are prone to material enjoyment, it is an offense and not a service ... So Sri Rupa Goswami Prabhu says:
atah sri-krsna-namadi, na bhaved grahyam indriyaiḥ / sevonmukhe hi jihvadau, svayam eva ... sphuraty adah. "No one can understand the transcendental nature of names, forms, qualities and pastimes of Sri Krishna through his materially contaminated senses ... Only when one becomes spiritually saturated by transcendental service offered to the Lord, they will be revealed transcendental names , forms, qualities and pastimes of Lord (Bhakti Rasamrta Sindhu 1.2.234).
What is the special nature of the ears? (162)
In this world, it is only through the ears that can get experience on a transcendental object ... No other way, even the eye, we can help it ... If we manipulate the other four senses, but keep the blocked ear holes we find floating in our previous experience and remain in the dark with our pride ... That way we will continue sinking in the ocean of our own anarthas.
Materialistic people can regulate and even change their concepts, if they use their ears to hear the teachings of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu ... If, however, prefer to manipulate any of their senses, they will never be able to leave the mental speculation ... However, that listening to be effective, he must be transcendental pure devotee ... He transcendental sound vibration must be akincana, so that you can extinguish the sense of false ownership among members of your audience.
What is a anartha? (203)
The interest of our being is the Absolute Truth, Lord Hari ... Everything that opposes the interests of our being, as the desire to gratify the senses, is a anartha, the main impediment in the path of service to the Lord ...
Anartha means Maya. Although sometimes, in the realm of maya, the anartha seem real, in fact it is illusory ...
Anarthas cause interruptions in our remembrance of the Lord and thus allow materials predominate thoughts ... Therefore, anarthas are obstacles in the path of the interest of our being and must be overcome ...
Who is alive and who is dead? (131)
The living entities are the servants of the Supreme Lord and serve Him is eternal ... its constitutional duty carry out our constitutional duty is life ... Therefore, only the servants of the Lord are alive; the others are dead ...
The jivas have no other function than to serve the Lord Krishna and His devotees ... They are natural servants of guru and Krishna ... Take a whimsical life is not going to help us to use our life in a proper way and therefore are dead ... The people who engage in practices karma-kanda are dead ... Those who engage in sinful activities and who are not careful when we talk about spiritual topics, are dead ... Failure to cultivate Krishna consciousness is death ... Those who choose to serve the illusion is dead, even if they are alive ... It is our constitutional duty thrive physically and mentally ... Pursuing such purposes is not a sign of being alive but being dead, unconscious ... Only devotional service gives supreme happiness ... Everything else is merely the absence of happiness ... Both karmis as jnanis are unhappy, restless and ultimately dead ... Only unmotivated devotees are alive, happy and peaceful.
Who is a Vaishnava? (125)
A Vaisnava is one who is beyond the influence of gold, women and fame Tigress ... Such a person is disinterested and pure ... Such a person can defeat the world.
