Rūpa Gosvāmī has forbidden. And in Bhagavad-gītā also it is said, yaḥ śāstra-vidhim utsṛjya vartate kāma-kārataḥ (BG 16.23): "Anyone who does not give respect to the authorized śāstras, but he lives whimsically, according to his own way," na siddhim sa avāpnoti, "such kind of discovering new path of religious system, new path of this or that, he never gets perfection," na siddhim sa avāpnoti, na sukham, "neither happiness." Na parāṁ gatim. Because our whole aim is how to get out of this material encagement and go back to the spiritual world, go back to home. That is the aim. That is called parā gatim. Parā means transcendental; gati means aim of life. Parā gati.

So such things are happening. Now anyone is manufacturing his own way of self-realization, and there are rascals who are supporting that, "Everyone, we are independent. We can find out our own way of worship." But Rūpa Gosvāmī says: "This is simply creating disturbance." That is very natural to understand. Suppose here, in our temple, we have got some regulative principle. But if everyone says that, "I can manufacture my own way of worshiping the Deity," then what will be the condition? It will be simply pandemonium. You see? So that is going on. Everyone is manufacturing a type of religion, meditation, without any reference to the authorized books, śruti-smṛti-purāṇādi:

<div class="quote_verse">
:śruti-smṛti-purāṇādi-
:pañcarātra-vidhiṁ vinā
:aikāntikī harer bhaktir 
:utpātāyaiva kalpate
</div>

Therefore, people are becoming atheists, no religion, no principle, and the whole world is in chaos due to this.

So Rūpa Gosvāmī has forbidden. And in Bhagavad-gītā also it is said, yaḥ śāstra-vidhim utsṛjya vartate kāma-kārataḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 16.23 (1972)|BG 16.23]]): "Anyone who does not give respect to the authorized śāstras, but he lives whimsically, according to his own way," na siddhim sa avāpnoti, "such kind of discovering new path of religious system, new path of this or that, he never gets perfection," na siddhim sa avāpnoti, na sukham, "neither happiness." Na parāṁ gatim. Because our whole aim is how to get out of this material encagement and go back to the spiritual world, go back to home. That is the aim. That is called parā gatim. Parā means transcendental; gati means aim of life. Parā gati.
