[[Category:Life and Soul]]

== Srimad-Bhagavatam ==

=== SB Canto 6 ===

'''[[Vanisource:SB 6.4.46|SB 6.4.46, Translation]]: My dear brāhmaṇa, austerity in the form of meditation is My heart, Vedic knowledge in the form of hymns and mantras constitutes My body, and spiritual activities and ecstatic emotions are My actual form. The ritualistic ceremonies and sacrifices, when properly conducted, are the various limbs of My body, the unseen good fortune proceeding from pious or spiritual activities constitutes My mind, and the demigods who execute My orders in various departments are My life and soul.'''

== Sri Caitanya-caritamrta ==

=== CC Adi-lila ===

'''[[Vanisource:CC Adi 4.248|CC Adi 4.248, Translation]]: “Thus although I am the source of happiness for the entire world, the beauty and attributes of Śrī Rādhikā are My life and soul.'''

=== CC Madhya-lila ===

'''[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 1.55|CC Madhya 1.55, Purport]]:''' Caitanya Mahāprabhu was a sannyāsī; He left home and everything else. He could certainly not be induced by any mundane lusty desires. So when He used the word madana-dahane (“in the fire of lusty desire”), He meant that out of pure love for Kṛṣṇa He was burning in the fire of separation from Kṛṣṇa. Whenever He met Jagannātha, either in the temple or during the Ratha-yātrā, Caitanya Mahāprabhu used to think, “Now I have gotten the Lord of My life and soul.”

'''[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 2.40|CC Madhya 2.40, Translation]]: Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu continued, “My dear friends, you are all My life and soul; therefore I tell you that I possess no wealth of love for Kṛṣṇa. Consequently My life is poverty-stricken. My limbs and senses are useless.”'''

'''[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 2.74|CC Madhya 2.74, Translation]]: In the attitude of Rādhārāṇī, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu addressed the gopīs: “‘My dear friends, where is that Kṛṣṇa, Cupid personified, who has the effulgence of a kadamba flower, who is sweetness itself, the nectar of My eyes and mind, He who loosens the hair of the gopīs, who is the supreme source of transcendental bliss and My life and soul? Has He come before My eyes again?’”'''

'''[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 2.75|CC Madhya 2.75, Translation]]: Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu then began to talk like this: “Is Cupid personified present with the effulgence and reflection of the kadamba tree? Is He the same person, personified sweetness, who is the pleasure of My eyes and mind, who is My life and soul? Has Kṛṣṇa actually come before My eyes ?”'''

'''[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 13.150|CC Madhya 13.150, Translation]]: Śrī Kṛṣṇa continued: “All the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana-dhāma—My mother, father, cowherd boyfriends and everything else—are like My life and soul. And among all the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana, the gopīs are My very life and soul. And among the gopīs, You, Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī, are the chief. Therefore You are the very life of My life.'''

'''[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 15.100|CC Madhya 15.100, Translation and Purport]]: Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said, “‘Kṛṣṇa, the son of Nanda Mahārāja, is my life and soul.’ By this statement I am sold into the hands of the descendants of Guṇarāja Khān.'''

The full verse referred to here is:
eka-bhāve vanda hari yoḍa kari’ hāta
nandanandana kṛṣṇa—mora prāṇa-nātha
“With folded hands I offer my prayers unto Kṛṣṇa, Nanda Mahārāja’s son, who is my life and soul.”

'''[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 15.157|CC Madhya 15.157, Translation]]: Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu continued, “I accept this Murāri Gupta as My life and soul. When I hear of his humility, it perturbs My very life.”'''

=== CC Antya-lila ===

'''[[Vanisource:CC Antya 12.5|CC Antya 12.5, Translation]]: The Lord would cry, “O My Lord Kṛṣṇa, My life and soul! O son of Mahārāja Nanda, where shall I go? Where shall I attain You? O Supreme Personality who play with Your flute to Your mouth!”'''

'''[[Vanisource:CC Antya 16.81|CC Antya 16.81, Translation]]: The Lord asked him, “Where is Kṛṣṇa, My life and soul? Please show Me Kṛṣṇa.” Saying this, He caught the doorkeeper’s hand.'''

'''[[Vanisource:CC Antya 19.50|CC Antya 19.50, Translation]]: “But this is the fault of My own destiny. Why should I needlessly accuse you? There is no intimate relationship between you and Me. Kṛṣṇa, however, is My life and soul. It is We who live together, and it is He who has become so cruel.'''

'''[[Vanisource:CC Antya 20.58|CC Antya 20.58, Translation]]: “Kṛṣṇa is My life and soul. Kṛṣṇa is the treasure of My life. Indeed, Kṛṣṇa is the very life of My life. I therefore keep Him always in My heart and try to please Him by rendering service. That is My constant meditation.'''

== Other Books by Srila Prabhupada ==

=== Krsna, The Supreme Personality of Godhead ===

'''[[Vanisource:KB 52|Krsna Book 52]]:''' My dear Lord, I dedicate my life and soul unto Your lotus feet. I have selected Your Lordship as my husband, and I therefore request You to accept me as Your wife. You are the supreme powerful, O lotus-eyed one. Now I belong to You. If that which is enjoyable for the lion to eat is taken away by the jackal, it will be a ludicrous affair; therefore I request You to immediately take care of me before I am taken away by Śiśupāla and other princes like him.

== Lectures ==

=== Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures ===

'''[[Vanisource:Lecture on BG 2.2 -- London, August 3, 1973|Lecture on BG 2.2 -- London, August 3, 1973]]:''' So Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura says that "The instruction which I have received from my spiritual master, that is my life and soul." This is called niścayātmikā-buddhiḥ, means assurance: "Whatever I have received, the order from my spiritual master, that will give me salvation." Or even no salvation. It doesn't matter. A real devotee, a servant, does not expect anything, but kāryam: "It is my duty. It is my duty."
