Our Krsna consciousness movement is transcendental, paro dharmah. Sa vai pumsam paro dharmah. Para means “above,” above the so-called religious system. So this is not our manufactured things. It is said in the Srimad-Bhagavatam in the beginning, dharmah projjhita-kaitavah atra: “Any kind of kaitavah, pretentious or false, illusory,” kaitavah. Kaitavah means cheating. “Cheating type of religion is rejected, thrown away,” projjhita. Prakrsta-rupena ujjhita. Just like we sweep over the floor, we take the last particle of dust and throw it away, similarly, to become Krsna conscious means we have to give up all these so-called or cheating type of religious system.
