HDG Srila Prabhupad Quote of the day
The Viṣṇu-dharmottara describes that Lord Rāmacandra and His brothers - Lakṣmaṇa, Bharata and Śatrughna - are incarnations of Vāsudeva, Saṅkarṣaṇa, Pradyumna and Aniruddha respectively.
-Shrimad Bhagavatam Canto 5 Chapter 19 Verse 2 Purport
क्लेशोऽधिकतरस्तेषामव्यक्तासक्तचेतसाम् ।
अव्यक्ता हि गतिर्दु:खं देहवद्भिरवाप्यते ॥ ५ ॥
For those whose minds are attached to the unmanifested, impersonal feature of the Supreme, advancement is very troublesome. To make progress in that discipline is always difficult for those who are embodied.
-Bhagavad-Gita Chapter 12 Verse 5
