God's knowledge is scientific, jñānaṁ me sa-vijñānam. So this religion without scientific knowledge is simply sentiment; it has no value. Generally religion is going on under sentiment, therefore the condition of the human society is so fallen. But the whole science is described there. It must be learned from the qualified professor; otherwise . . . and religion means, it is stated, dharmaṁ tu sākṣād bhagavat-praṇītaṁ (SB 6.3.19).

God's knowledge is scientific, jñānaṁ me sa-vijñānam. So this religion without scientific knowledge is simply sentiment; it has no value. Generally religion is going on under sentiment, therefore the condition of the human society is so fallen. But the whole science is described there. It must be learned from the qualified professor; otherwise . . . and religion means, it is stated, dharmaṁ tu sākṣād bhagavat-praṇītaṁ ([[Vanisource:SB 6.3.19|SB 6.3.19]]). Religion is not unscientific, because it is coming from the most perfect, nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām (Kaṭha Upaniṣad 2.2.13). Aparuṣa. "How it is coming?" you can say. Therefore the Supreme Personality comes personally and establishes religion—most scientific. He comes here:

<div class="quote_verse">
:paritrāṇāya sādhūnāṁ
:vināśāya ca duṣkṛtām
:dharma-saṁsthāpanārthāya
:sambhavāmi yuge yuge 
:([[Vanisource:BG 4.8 (1972)|BG 4.8]])
</div>

So a man cannot give religion. Man-made religion is not religion. But the religion given by God, that is religion. And what is that religion?

<div class="quote_verse">
:sarva-dharmān parityajya
:mām ekaṁśaraṇaṁ vraja
:ahaṁ tvāṁ sarva-pāpebhyo
:mokṣayiṣyāmi mā śucaḥ 
:([[Vanisource:BG 18.66 (1972)|BG 18.66]])
</div>

Kṛṣṇa says that, "You give up everything, simply surrender unto Me, and I will give you all protection and all knowledge."

<div class="quote_verse">
:teṣām evānukampārtham
:aham ajñāna-jaṁ tamaḥ
:nāśayāmy ātma-bhāva-stho
:jñāna-dīpena bhāsvatā 
:([[Vanisource:BG 10.11 (1972)|BG 10.11]])
</div>

So if you . . . our only disease is that we have revolted against God; therefore we are under the clutches of māyā, illusion.

<div class="quote_verse">
:daivī hy eṣā guṇa-mayī
:mama māyā duratyayā
:mām eva ye prapadyante
:māyām etāṁ taranti te 
:([[Vanisource:BG 7.14 (1972)|BG 7.14]])
</div>

This is the process. We are placed under the clutches of māyā, therefore we are in illusion; we do not know what to do. But if you put yourself under the protection of the Supreme, then you know everything.
