- We cannot accuse Krsna of being lusty or sensuous. No. There are so many devotees of Krsna, and Krsna shows favor to all of them
- We take our birth because we are bound by our karma, but Krsna, being fully independent, does not come because of someone else's request or because of karma. Rather, He comes by His own free will - atma-mayaya
- When everyone offered respect to Krsna by standing up, Sisupala remained in his seat, but as he became angrier at Krsna's being honored, he stood up suddenly, raised his hand and spoke very strongly and fearlessly against Lord Krsna

- Yet, despite His being equally kind to everyone, He (Krsna) has graciously come before me while I am ending my life, for I am His unflinching servitor
- You just try to follow devotional service to the Lord, bhakti, Krsna consciousness. That will please Krsna. Then by His pleasing, He will reveal to you. He will reveal to you. God being pleased with your sincere service and love, He will let you know
