Upheld by Scripture

"The process of speaking in spiritual circles is to say something upheld by the scriptures. One should at once quote from scriptural authority to back up what he is saying. At the same time, such talk should be very pleasurable to the ear. By such discussions, one may derive the highest benefit and elevate human society. There is a limitless stock of Vedic literature, and one should study this. This is called penance of speech."
Bg 17.15 - Purport

There are three spiritual modes of internal energy called
sandhini-sakti, samvit-sakti, and hladhini-sakti. Over the next few
weeks each of these component parts will be discussed, beginning with
this paper on sandhini-sakti.

Eternality, or sat, is conducted by the sandhini potency, and is the
impersonal Brahman (brahmajyoti) feature of Godhead. Being limitless,
it extends in all directions—three fourths in Vaikuntha, and one
fourth as the resting place of this cosmic manifestation, ... read more

In 1950 Srila Prabhupada retired from married life, adopting the vanaprastha (retired) order to devote more time to his studies and writing. He traveled to the holy city of Vrndavana, where he lived in humble circumstances in the historic temple of Sri Sri Radha-Damodara. There he engaged for several years in deep study and writing.
