Thought Of The Day

So this... Real religion is love, how to love God. That is real religion Dharma, what is that? Yato bhaktir... Sa vai pumsam paro dharmo [SB 1.2.6]. There are different kinds of dharma, or religious system. But real religious system means how we have learned to love God. That's all. Nothing more. No ritualistic ceremony, no formula, nothing. If your heart is always crying for God, that is perfect religion. That is perfect religion. Therefore Caitanya Mahaprabhu says, sunyayitam jagat sarvam: "Oh, without Krsna, I am feeling the whole world is vacant." Vacant, yes. So we have to come to that stage. Of course, it is not possible for all of us, but Caitanya Mahaprabhu showed us how to become highest religious person. That is to feel always, "Oh, without Krsna, everything is vacant." Sunyayitam jagat sarvam govinda virahena me. That is dharma, that is dharma.
