Lilamrita - As It Is

1) The Lord is as hard as a thunderbolt for those who defy Him and as soft as a rose for those who surrender to Him. Therefore we should all sincerely surrender to Lord Krishna, since that is clearly in our self-interest. - Ref. Srimad-Bhagavatam 10.41.52

2) One should simply surrender to Lord Krishna, following the example of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, who is Lord Krishna Himself. - Ref. Srimad-Bhagavatam 11.12.14-15

3) The path of self-realization depends upon clear intelligence, and the easiest way to acquire such expertise is -- surrender to Lord Krishna. - Ref. Srimad-Bhagavatam 11.20.21

4) Real intelligence is to actually surrender to Lord Krishna, without personal desire or duplicity. That is the Lord's opinion.
