Sree Chaitanya Gaudia Math
— Taking the Holy Name and the direct experience of the Supreme Lord are one and the same thing.
— A holy place is there where the topics of Sree Krishna are being discussed.
— If I seek the path leading to the ultimate good, I must ignore the countless voices of popular wisdom and listen to that of the realized souls — the sraut vani.— His Divine Grace Srila Bhakti Siddhant Saraswati Goswami Thakur Prabhupad.
The words of Sri Gaurasundara, those words that Sri Guru always repeats to us, declare that in the case of a person who does not want any personal advantage, who is inclined to serve Godhead, who is anxious to get across the ocean of the world to the further shore of the spiritual realm, for such a person to appreciate worldliness is, alas, more harmful than swallowing poison.
When Sri Guru bestows on us the mantra (which relieves one from the mental platform), in which he has been instructed by the Supreme Lord’s own, it is only then that we realize the fact that the service of the lotus feet of Sri Guru is the only cause of all well-being.

— A flatterer is neither a guru nor a preacher.
— Other than the ear, there is no route to a vision of the non-material Supreme Entity.
