Śrīla Prabhupāda explains that this desire to become zero is a reaction to the miseries of the material body. However, he clarifies that such a state is both artificial and impossible to maintain. This article explores the difference between the "zero philosophy" of the voidists and the "active devotion" of the Vaisnavas, highlighting how the soul finds..."

Śrīla Prabhupāda teaches that the ultimate test of ''bhakti'' is how much an individual manages to become uninterested in the temporary allurements of material progress. This is not an act of will alone but a symptom of awakening to our real identity. This article discusses the nature of this transcendental detachment, the importance of the "higher taste," and the role..."

Śrīla Prabhupāda explains that while no amount of intellectual strength can force the Lord to appear, He is easily "conquered" by those who adopt a humble heart. The struggle to understand the Divine through mental speculation is a hallmark of the modern age, but the true path is found in the simple act of becoming submissive. This article discusses how submission serves as the crucial test of a..."

Śrīla Prabhupāda teaches that to advance in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, one must strive to become sober. This state of sobriety, known as the ''dhīra'' quality, is not merely a lack of intoxication but a profound status of self-control and clarity. This article explores how becoming sober allows a person to find their real position, act with responsibility, and navigate the challe..."

Śrīla Prabhupāda teaches that according to the Vedic system, we must all strive toward the goal of becoming sinless, as God is the purest of the pure.

Śrīla Prabhupāda teaches that this approach is like trying to nourish a tree by pouring water on its leaves. Instead, the secret to becoming satisfied lies in reaching the root. Because every living entity is spiritually connected to the Supreme Lord, the fulfillment of the soul is contingent upon the satisfaction of Kṛṣṇa. This article explores th..."

Śrīla Prabhupāda clarifies that while such preliminary piety is better than animalistic irreligion, it remains a shadow of the true spiritual path. Real religiosity is a transformative training that aligns the soul with the will of the Supreme. This article examines the shift from "cheating" religion to a state of pure devotion that transcends al..."
