“The difference between a pious man and a criminal is that one is pure in heart and the other is dirty. This dirt is like a disease in the form of uncontrollable lust and greed in the heart of the criminal. Today people in general are in this diseased condition, and thus crime is very widespread. When the people become purified of these dirty things, crime will disappear. The simplest process of purification is to assemble in congregation and chant the holy names of God.” SSR Crime & What to do?

HypocriteThe word dambha indicates a self-righteous hypocrite—someone not so much concerned with being saintly as with appearing saintly. In the age of Kali there is a rather large number of self-righteous, hypocritical religious fanatics claiming to have the only way, the only truth and the only light. SB 12/2/5 Symptoms of Kali Yuga

The association with other devotees of God, and especially with saintly persons who can teach the message of love of Krishna, is extremely important for one who is serious about spiritual advancement. Without the sort of association that such centers of Krishna Consciousness will provide, it is very difficult to maintain the high standards required for spiritual perfection in a world given over largely to material sense gratification, garbed occasionally, it is true, in the hypocrite’s cloak of ritualistic or traditional religion.

In addition to giving direct realization of the Lord and elevation to His transcendental abode, the chanting of the holy names of the Lord can immerse the chanter in a profound state of spiritual rapture.Ultimately, perfection in chanting the holy name promotes the chanter to the spiritual world, the kingdom of God. There, in a spiritual body, he engages in direct devotional service to the Lord forever. This attainment is the professed goal of all the world's major religions.Kundali Das BTG Hallowed be thy Name

Some of you have a broken heart. And it's hurting. Some of you have a hard heart. You've had so much bitterness and resentment in your life for so long, you've let it pile up and you have a stony, hard heart and nothing can break through. Your husband can't get close to you or your wife can't get close to you. Nobody can get close to you. Some of you have a divided heart. You're trying to serve God one way on Sunday and on Monday you're trying to please many different people. You act one way with one group of people, other ways with other groups of people. It's divided and no wonder you're not happy. Let God give you a new heart.

Lord, help me to realize that You're everywhere and can see everything. There are no locked doors with You -- no secrets. You know every thought that has ever crossed my mind, every jealousy, envy, lust, thought of murder or suicide or fear or depression. Every wrong thought, You've seen it all, & yet you invite me in. Krishna, I want to realign my priorities with You. I want to put You first place in my life. You've said if I'll set my heart first on You then all these other things will come to me as a matter of course. Become the center of my life. Help me to be more concerned with pleasing You than pleasing people. Give me a new heart, filled with clean thoughts and right desires."
