- A KC person being always situated in the transcendental loving service of God, automatically becomes the controller of the senses. His senses, being always engaged in the service of Krsna, have no chance of becoming otherwise engaged. BG 1972 purports
- A person in Krsna consciousness does not run this risk. One therefore has to engage one's mind and senses in Krsna conscious activities, and Lord Caitanya teaches one how to do this in practice - CC Preface
- A person in Krsna consciousness has no opportunity to engage his senses in anything which is not for the purpose of Krsna. Therefore, a Krsna conscious person is simultaneously a sannyasi and a yogi. BG 1972 purports
- Ambarisa engaged his sense of smell by relishing the fragrance of flowers offered to Krsna, his tongue in tasting the tulasi leaves offered to the lotus feet of Krsna, his legs in going to the temple of Krsna, & his head in offering obeisances to Krsna
- As an ideal king, he (Yudhisthira) had no personal ambition, and there was no place for sense gratification because all his senses at all times were engaged in the loving service of the Supreme Lord
H
- He (an intelligent person) rightly concludes that because there is an intimate relationship between the senses and Krsna, as long as the senses are active it is one's duty to use the senses in the service of Krsna. This is bhakti
- He (Maharaja Ambarisa) engaged all his senses in devotional service, in various engagements related to the Lord. This is the way to increase attachment for the Lord and be completely free from all material desires
- Hrsikena hrsikesa-sevanam bhaktir ucyate: (CC Madhya 19.170) when by our senses (hrsikena) we serve Hrsikesa, the real master of the senses, that service is called bhakti. This is a very simple definition of bhakti

- If anyone is reestablished in his original, constitutional position as part and parcel of the Supreme and engages his energy in that way, he is liberated. This is the definition of liberation
- If our mind, senses, speech, money and energies are thus engaged in the service of Krsna, then we are no longer in material nature. By virtue of spiritual consciousness, or Krsna consciousness, we transcend the platform of material nature - CC Intro
- If the mind is engaged at the lotus feet of Lord Krsna (sa vai manah krsna-padaravindayoh (SB 9.4.18)), the senses are automatically engaged in the Lord's service
- If we engage our senses in the service of Krsna, we shall no longer be servants of the senses, but masters of the senses
- If you don't train your senses to act nicely, it will again fall down to the nonsense activities. So we have to give engagement to the senses to act for Krsna. Then there is no chance of falldown. That is Krsna consciousness
- It (bhakti) is not sentiment; it is a practical science when your mind and senses are fully absorbed in Krsna. The senses are engaged in serving Krsna and mind is always thinking of Krsna
- It is said, hrsikena hrsikesa-sevanam bhaktir ucyate: (CC Madhya 19.170) bhakti means to engage the senses in the service of the master of the senses, Krsna, who is called Hrsikesa or Acyuta

- One should come to understand, "My senses are meant to serve the master of the senses, Hrsikesa." The master of the senses is sitting within everyone's heart
- One should try to get out of illusion and be engaged in the factual service of Krsna. Service to Krsna utilizes all the senses, and when the senses are engaged in the service of Krsna, they become purified
- One simply has to develop the eyes to see how these things are going on. This is possible if we engage the senses in the service of Krsna
T
- The intelligent man situated in Krsna consciousness does not try to forcibly stop his senses from acting. Rather, he engages his senses in the service of Krsna - CC Preface
- The only process for perceiving Krishna and His name, qualities, form is our sincere service attitude with our senses. Beginning from the tongue, all our senses are practically led by the tongue sense, whose business is to vibrate and to taste
- The senses can then become uncontaminated, being constantly in touch with bhakti-rasa. When the purified senses are employed in the service of the Lord, one becomes situated in bhakti-rasa life
- The whole material disease is based on the process of sense gratification, and liberation from the diseased condition is re-engagement of the senses to see the beauty of the Lord, hear His glories, and act on His account
- This Krsna consciousness movement is the process by which you can purify, sanctify your senses. And then, when your senses are engaged in Krsna's service, beginning with the tongue, then your life becomes perfect
W
- When one actually becomes advanced through such engagements, then he may not work physically, but he is always engaged within by constantly thinking of Krsna. In the preliminary stage, one is always advised to engage one's senses in the service of Krsna
- When one engages his senses in the service of the Lord - specifically, when one engages the tongue in chanting the Hare Krsna mantra and tasting only Krsna prasada with a spirit of service - the Supreme Personality of Godhead is revealed
- When the senses are engaged only for the service of Krsna, Hrsikesa, then there is no need of practicing yoga. Automatically they are locked up in the service of Krsna. They have no other engagement. That is the highest
- When we have the strength to refuse to allow our senses to be engaged other than in the service of Krsna, then we shall be saved
