"The Sure Way to Know God"
“Bhagavatam taught that the Absolute Truth is known as “Brahman” (the Lord’s impersonal effulgence), Paramatma (the Supersoul), and “Bhagavan” (the Personality of Godhead)”
“But when it comes to focussing one’s attention on the Absolute, one must focus on the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Krishna. Otherwise how can we focus our attention? It is very difficult to fix the mind on the Impersonal feature or the Supersoul. The Impersonal Absolute Truth can be understood by philosophical speculation, and the Supersoul by meditation, but these processes are very difficult. Fixing the mind on Bhagavan (SriKrishna) however is easy and practical”.
“We can easily fix the mind on Krishna by seeing His form in the temple, reading His instructions in the “Bhagavad Geetha”, hearing and chanting His holy names, and in many other ways. There is no difficulty”..........
“Chaitanya Mahaprabhu has approved this process: “sthaane sthitah sruti-gataam tanu-vaan-manobhih” Remain in your own social position, but try to hear the transcendental message from the realised souls. You will gradually become enlightened and cut the knot of material bondage”
