The science of God is for persons who are not envious. That is religion. Bhāgavata . . . in the Bhāgavata you will find in the beginning it is said, dharmaḥ projjhita-kaitavaḥ atra paramo nirmatsarāṇāṁ satām (SB 1.1.2): "Here the religion of Bhāgavata is not a cheating religion." Kaitava. Kaitava means cheating. Cheating. And Śrīdhara Svāmī has remarked, commented on the statement, kaitava, he says that atra mokṣa-vāñchā-paryantaṁ nirastam: "Anyone who is trying to become liberated or merge into the existence of God, that is also cheating.".

We have made two, three, four, five, six, increasing the number of religion. Just like in New York we have seen the United Nation's organization. It is said that united, but there are thousands of flags. Disunited. Because actually they do not want to unite. It is a farce that they have made a United Nation organization. Nobody wants to unite. In the material world how there can be unity? That is not possible.

Material world means everyone wants to enjoy to his satisfaction sense gratification. That is material world. So you want to satisfy your senses, I want to satisfy my senses. Therefore there is struggle, "Oh, this man is enjoying so much, I am unable." Even brother to brother, envious: "Oh, my this brother has increased so much money. He is enjoying." Envious. That is material envy, envious, to be envious.

Therefore the science of God is for persons who are not envious. That is religion. Bhāgavata . . . in the Bhāgavata you will find in the beginning it is said, dharmaḥ projjhita-kaitavaḥ atra paramo nirmatsarāṇāṁ satām (SB 1.1.2): "Here the religion of Bhāgavata is not a cheating religion." Kaitava. Kaitava means cheating. Cheating. And Śrīdhara Svāmī has remarked, commented on the statement, kaitava, he says that atra mokṣa-vāñchā-paryantaṁ nirastam: "Anyone who is trying to become liberated or merge into the existence of God, that is also cheating."

Nirastam: that is also nullified. Nirastam. Why? Why the . . .? A person who is trying to be merged into the existence of God, jñānīs . . . those who are philosophically advancing, they are called jñānīs. The absolute idea is that, "Because I am brahma, and God is also brahma, therefore, as soon as I am freed from māyā, I become one with God."
