Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, this, that or white, black, so many ways, according to the designation of the body you have created dharma, or characteristics. That is inferior quality. But when you come to the superior quality of characteristic, of dharma, then you become happy. Anywhere there are two qualities always—inferior and superior. When you are attached to the inferior quality you don't get very much satisfaction, but when you come to the superior quality, then you get satisfaction, happiness.

Just like the whole material world is important because the living entity is utilizing it for his purpose. This New Delhi city is important because the living entity is utilizing it for purpose. Otherwise it was a jungle. Anything you take material, material thing has no value, it is inferior, but by the touch of the superior energy, living entity, it becomes important. Therefore there are two nature—inferior nature and superior nature.

Similarly, there are two kinds of dharmas. Hindu, Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, this, that or white, black, so many ways, according to the designation of the body you have created dharma, or characteristics. That is inferior quality. But when you come to the superior quality of characteristic, of dharma, then you become happy. Anywhere there are two qualities always—inferior and superior. When you are attached to the inferior quality you don't get very much satisfaction, but when you come to the superior quality, then you get satisfaction, happiness.

So here it is said, dharma, religion, or the characteristic of human being, there are so many, but sa vai puṁsām paro dharmo, that is superior quality of religion or characteristic. What is that? Sa vai puṁsām paro dharmo, yato bhaktir adhokṣaje: "Following which you become a devotee of the Adhokṣaja." Adhokṣaja means the Supreme Lord, God.
