<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Lecture on SB 1.7.10 -- Vrndavana, September 9, 1976|Lecture on SB 1.7.10 -- Vrndavana, September 9, 1976]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="text"><p style="display: inline;">
''Siddhānta''. How Kṛṣṇa is great. ''Ittham-bhūta-guṇo hariḥ ''([[Vanisource:SB 1.7.10|SB 1.7.10]]). Therefore it is said how Kṛṣṇa is great. God is great. In the Western world, they say "God is great," but one does not know how He is great. That you will find in the Vedic literature. Just like in the ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam'', ''ittham-bhūta-guṇo-hariḥ'': He's so great. That you have to learn from ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam''. Simply to know God is great, it is good. But how He is great, how He is working, that we have to take lessons from the Vedic literature. You cannot find such information anywhere, in any book throughout the whole world. So there is no question of studying ''Vedas ''from a sectarian point of view. For the sake of knowledge, everyone should study this Vedic literature. And it is summarized in ''Vedānta-sūtra''. Therefore it is called ''Vedānta-sūtra''. ''Sūtra ''means summarized. ''Athāto brahma jijñāsā ''(''Vedānta-sūtra ''1.1.1). 

Now these two words, ''atha ataḥ brahma jijñāsā''—four words—it contains volumes of knowledge. Therefore it is called ''sūtra''. ''Janmādy asya yataḥ ''([[Vanisource:SB 1.1.1|SB 1.1.1]]). They are ''Brahma-sūtra''. ''Brahma-sūtra padaiś caiva''. Kṛṣṇa says in the ''Bhagavad-gītā ''that ''brahma-sūtra padaiś caiva hetumadbhir viniścitam ''([[Vanisource:BG 13.5 (1972)|BG 13.5]]). The truth, Absolute Truth, is fixed up by ''Brahma-sūtra''. So ''Brahma-sūtra ''explained in the ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam''. ''Brahma-sūtra ''is the summary of the whole Vedic literature. Because in future people will misinterpret. Therefore the author of ''Brahma-sūtra'', Vyāsadeva, made a natural comment, and that comment is ''Brahma-sūtra bhāṣya'', the ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam''. Don't be misguided by rascals, that "''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam ''is written by somebody else. It is not written by Vyāsadeva." These are rascals' proposition. This is given by Śrī Vyāsadeva, and he is the author of ''Brahma-sūtra''. ''Lokasyājānato vidvāṁś cakre sātvata-saṁhitām ''([[Vanisource:SB 1.7.6|SB 1.7.6]]). This is ''sātvata-saṁhitām''. So we have tried to explain this ''sātvata-saṁhitām ''in English for study of the whole world, because English can be understood, or it can be translated easily. 

So these activities are going on. And we are very much thankful to you that you are cooperating. So in India you may find some difficulty. Still, your valuable cooperation is required for the benefit of the whole world. ''Lokasyājānato vidvāṁś cakre sātvata-saṁhitām''.

:''ātmārāmāś ca munayo''
:''kurvanty ahaitukīṁ bhaktim''
:''ittham-bhūta-guṇo hariḥ''

We have to spread the transcendental qualities of Kṛṣṇa. ''Kṛṣṇe parama-pūruṣe''. ''Yasyāṁ vai śrūyamāṇāyāṁ kṛṣṇe parama-pūruṣe'', ''bhaktir utpadyate ''([[Vanisource:SB 1.7.7|SB 1.7.7]]). That is the life's mission. So as far as possible, try to understand. As advised by Kṛṣṇadāsa Kavirāja Gosvāmī, ''siddhānta baliyā citte nā kara alasa'', don't be lazy. Always try to understand Kṛṣṇa,'' siddhānta'', by ''siddhānta'', by Vedic conclusion, not by manufacturing ideas. ''Siddhānta''. Don't be lazy. That is the instruction of Kavirāja Gosvāmī.

:''siddhānta baliyā citte nā kara alasa''
:''ihā haite kṛṣṇe lāge sudṛḍha mānasa''
:([[Vanisource:CC Adi 2.117|CC Adi 2.117]])

If you study according to the Vedic conclusion, don't manufacture ideas and whims and sentiments . . . If you go through ''siddhānta'', then you'll be more and more firmly fixed up. ''Ihā haite kṛṣṇe lāge sudṛḍha mānasa''. Then your life is successful.</p>
