Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"Vedic civilization means that people were trained up in such a way that ultimately he comes to the transcendental platform and he understands his real position in this world, his relationship with God, and he acts accordingly, so that he gets the chance of utilizing this human form of life to the best possibility. That means to end this wandering in the cycle of 8,400,000 species of life and get oneself out of this entanglement."

Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"Dharma-artha-kāma-mokṣa (SB 4.8.41, CC Adi 1.90): these are the principles for elevating a living entity to the highest platform. But they have taken it, generally... They perform religious ritualistic performances for getting some more money, artha. Of course, we require some money for our maintenance; that is necessary. But if we simply perform ritualistic performances to acquire money only, that is misguided. Generally people do so. They give in charity so that they may get more money. They open dharmaśālā so that they can get more houses. That is their purpose. Or they may be elevated to the heavenly kingdom. Because they do not know what is his actual interest. The actual interest is to go back to home, go back to Godhead."

Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"Potter's wheel is producing earthen pots. So what is the cause? Somebody will say that "The dirt, earth, is the cause of this pot because it is made of earth". Another will say, "No, the cause is the wheel. Because the wheel is going around, therefore it is coming out". But these two causes, prakṛti and pradhāna, ingredients and the instrument, they are not causes. The cause is the potter."
