N
- Nobody can create religious principle. A man cannot create. That is not possible. Any religious system which is created by man, that is not religion. Religion means what is created by God. That is religion

- Our Krsna consciousness view is that everything created by God is not mithya; it is fact. Everything is fact. We don't say unnecessarily, "This is mithya. This is false." Why it is false? God is truth. If He has created anything, that is also truth
