A
- A sannyasi who is always engaged in music for spiritual elevation is called Sarasvati
- As far as music is concerned, we have got our standard of music, the Hare Krishna Maha Mantra. We do not require to introduce anything new
- At that time, accompanied by the sounds of music, Ramananda Raya came there on a palanquin to take his bath
B
- Because of the pastimes in the water, there was great jubilation on the shore, with music, singing, chanting and dancing creating a tumultuous sound
- By gradual development of transcendental knowledge, one can rise to the stage of the transcendental arts of music and dance displayed by the Lord in His rasa-lila
E
- Everything is there in Krsna consciousness. We want music, there is music. We want dancing, there is dancing
- Everywhere were heard the sounds of the conchshell and kettledrum and various other vibrations of music and song. The learned brahmanas showered their blessings upon the newly married couple - Krsna and Satya
I
- I am so glad you are playing music for Krishna. It is a great service of your talent. Anyone's special talent should be engaged in the service of the Lord, and thereby becomes successful in his life
- If he is serious to know about these things, then he must know it from the proper channel. You cannot learn music from a carpenter. If you want to learn music, then you have to approach an expert musician
- If you have got opportunity to travel and hold kirtana with your music group over the South Pacific, why not take advantage?
- In every house, in addition to the singing program, there is an arrangement for Bhagavatam lectures in evening; family members sit down, hold Hare Krsna kirtana, hear narrations from Srimad-Bhagavatam and Bhagavad-gita and enjoy music before going to bed
- In outer space all the demigods, including the inhabitants of Gandharvaloka, Siddhaloka and Caranaloka, offered their prayers and danced to the accompaniment of music, songs and the beating of drums
- In the 8th vilasa (of Hari-bhakti-vilasa), there is a description of the Deity and instructions on how to set up incense, light lamps, make offerings, dance, play music, beat drums, garland the Deity, offer prayers and obeisances and counteract offenses
- In the Christian religion all we see is Christ's picture as he was crucified, so how people can be attracted to such thing? There is no science, philosophy, music, art, Prasadam, it is no wonder that the people are rejecting this nonsense
- In the material world also, unless you have got some attachment for something, you cannot act it very nicely. Just like a musician. Because one has got a good attachment for music, he tries to perform it very perfectly. So love is the basis
- In the philosophy section there should be a class dealing with all the Vaisnava philosophies (the four sampradayas). Music class can be based on the Sama Veda. In the Political Science class Maharaja Prthu's life may also be studied
- In Vrndavana, the natural speech of the people sounds like music, and their natural motion resembles a dance
- In your city there is always congregational chanting of the holy name. A tumultuous uproar of music, singing and dancing is always going on
- Indeed, the devotional process is very pleasant; we melodiously sing with instruments, and someone will listen and also join (sravanam kirtanam (SB 7.5.23)). Of course the music should be in relation with the Supreme Lord, in glorification of Him
- It is understood that military art is also necessary knowledge for the upkeep of social order, as is the art of music. All these groups of knowledge are called the Upapurana, or supplements of the Vedas
K
- Kirtana means both lecturing and chanting with music. The chanting with music is specially attractive for the mass of people, but talking from philosophical point of view on Krishna Consciousness is also chanting
- Kirtana means kirtayati, glorifying. That is kirtana. So either you sing musically or you speak devotionally, both of them are kirtana. Just like Sukadeva Gosvami, he continually spoke to Maharaja Pariksit
- Kirtana means sometimes chanting with music, and sometimes speaking. Both of them are kirtana. Kirtayati iti kirtanam. Whenever we glorify the Lord, that is called kirtana. The Srimad-Bhagavatam reading is also kirtana
- Kirtanam actually means "describing." We can describe with music, words, pictures, etc. Sravanam goes hand in hand with kirtanam, for unless we hear, we cannot describe
- Kirtanam can be performed both by singing the glories of the Lord in accompaniment with melodious music and by recitation of scriptures like Srimad-Bhagavatam or Bhagavad-gita
- Krsna Consciousness is not dry. We can give direction in politics, in sociology, in religion, in philosophy, in arts, in music, in aesthetics, and in what not? It is complete
- Krsnotkirtena, "loudly chanting the holy name of Krsna," krsnotkirtana-gana, "in musical sound, in songs, with music"
M
- Music and dance and distribution of prasadam are the main items of my Krishna Consciousness propagation, and they are acting so nicely
- Music and dancing employed in sense gratification are demoniac, but the same music and dancing, when employed in glorifying the Supreme Lord as kirtana, are transcendental, and they bring about a life completely fit for spiritual enjoyment
- Music and dancing employed in sense gratification are to be accepted as demoniac
- Music and dancing, when employed in glorifying the Supreme Lord as kirtana, are transcendental, and they bring about a life completely fit for spiritual enjoyment
- Music is one of our items for chanting, but we are not musicians. We should always remember this fact. The best example is that we take advantage of the typewriting machine, but that does not mean we are professional typists

O

P
- Practically, our Krishna Consciousness movement is based on transcendental pleasure. Music, dancing and feasts are the chief items for pleasure, and this pleasure is originally on the transcendental realm
- Prakasananda Sarasvati continued, These (chanting and dancing and playing music) are the activities of emotional and sentimental people but You (Caitanya) are a qualified sannyasi. Why not engage in the study of Vedanta?
- Prakasananda Sarasvati continued, You are a sannyasi and are supposed to engage simply in the study of Vedanta, but we see that instead You are always engaged in chanting and dancing and playing music. What is the reason?
S

- Sometimes they (the gopis) presented beautiful music for His (Krsna's) pleasure, and He responded by praising their singing

T

- The bhakti-yoga system is that if you stick to the hearing of Hare Krsna and the music, melodious music of karatala, then naturally you become detestful for hearing other songs
- The ears are telling us, "Oh, there is very nice music. Let us go hear it." The tongue is saying - Oh, there is a very nice restaurant with palatable dishes. Let us go
- The gopis are not interested in dry speculation, in the arts, in music, or other conditions of material life. They are bereft of all understanding of material enjoyment and renunciation. Their only desire is to see Krsna return
- The gopis wanted to please Krsna, and therefore as Krsna sang, they responded and encouraged Him by saying "Well done! Well done!" Sometimes they presented beautiful music for His pleasure, and He responded by praising their singing
- The music is nice for the nondevotee class of men. However, the picture on the album cover is not nice. Why this crazy picture? This will not help our cause

- Their dancing (of many other Brahmas and Sivas and demigods) was accompanied by various kinds of music, and all of Them were worshiping Lord Visnu

- They (Krsna's consorts) learn the finer arts of music, dance, dressing, decorations and all such things which are relished by the Lord
- They say that the Kirtan tune is the specific gift of Bengal, and that is a fact. So why not utilize this tune in the Western countries under the able guidance of such expert musician as George
- This KC movement through music, philosophy, spiritual culture, and personal behavior culminating in ideal character of the devotees. All these heavenly contributions combined together will certainly bring about a major change in the life of Western people
- This transcendental knowledge (the arts of music, dance, dressing, decorations relished by god) is unknown to the forgotten conditioned souls
