Srila Prabhupada

When you see flower, you see Kṛṣṇa smiling. That is the seeing of Kṛṣṇa smiling. Therefore the flower should be utilized for Kṛṣṇa’s service. Because these flowers, everything, is Kṛṣṇa’s energy. Parāsya śaktir vividhaiva śrūyate (CC Madhya 13.65, purport). So specifically good fragrance of flower, Kṛṣṇa says that “I am that.” Kṛṣṇa’s particular presence is there. So we can remember Kṛṣṇa immediately. This Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is that you remember always Kṛṣṇa. Always Kṛṣṇa.

Quote of the Day

Kṛṣṇa’s eyes, navel and face, hands and feet are like eight lotus flowers on His body. From those eight lotuses emanates a fragrance like a mixture of camphor and lotus. That is the scent associated with His body.
