Guest guest Posted March 21, 1999 Report Share Posted March 21, 1999 Our exemplary character depends on strictly following the four principles, and this will conquer the whole world. Our movement is not only for some theoretical teaching, but it is for developing practical character and definite understanding. Srila Prabhupada Letter to: Aniruddha, 4 February, 1969 Everyone should very carefully maintain his character, especially the brahmanas. One whose character is not weak is never weakened. But he that has lost his character is himself lost. Mahabharata Vana Parva 312.109 (Yaksha prasna) Study of the Vedas is not meant for the recreation of armchair speculators, but for the formation of character. BGAII 8.28 purport If one does not improve in his character by devotional service, then it is to be understood that he is not a high devotee. BGAII 9.30 purport Bhagavat-bhakta means he acts in such a way that he is all qualified. Nobody can criticize. 761001sb.vrn First of all build up character. Then it will be helpful to make further progress in spiritual life. 760413SB.BOM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
