\u201cYou have no choice. You must leave your ego on the doorstep before you enter love.\u201d \u2015 Kamand Kojouri / Bhaktivedanta is the fullest expression of the self / To the degree there\u2019s ego, there\u2019s no room for intimacy / looking at our own pain with the discernment of a stone cold Vendantin and a soft heart of a Bhakti-yogi / ask the sages for knowledge during times of pain / wisdom eases the pain of grief / \u201cAll that is left of this family life is a list of names.\u201d - Srila Prabhupada / when you\u2019re wailing on the floor, you\u2019ve just got a little karma to burn
