to BVKS Sanga, (Krsna) Katha, (ISKCON) Lipa Dalmacija, Prabhupada Said
Therefore they are all pretending religion. Real religion is obedient. Dharmam
tu saksad bhagavat-pranitam. Therefore in the Bhagavata you'll find, dharmah
projjhita-kaitavo 'tra: "All pretending type of religion is rejected." And
Krsna also said the same thing, sarva-dharman parityajya: "You give up all this
pretending religion. You simply surrender unto Me. That is real religion." What
is the use of speculating on pretending religion? That is not religion at all.
Just like pretending law. Law cannot be pretending. Law is law, given by the
state. Similarly, religion means the order given by God. That is religion. If
you follow, then you are religious. If you don't follow, then you are demon.
Make things very simplified. Then it will be appealing to everyone.

Disciples, February 12, 1975, Mexico
