They do not believe in God, and what to speak about His order and law. This is the position. They do not know what is God. "God is zero, therefore His order is zero. I can do anything and everything." This is going on. But real dharmajñāḥ means one who knows what is religious principles.

Prabhupāda: Dharmajñāḥ means to know, just like good citizen means he knows what are the laws of the state. That is good citizen. If you know the laws of the state and you do not drive your car against the order of the state—either is left or as is, somewhere it is left, somewhere it is right. Anyway . . . what is this in this country? Left or right? Left?

Devotee: Left.

Prabhupāda: Left. So if you know the laws of the state, then you cannot drive your car on the right side. Similarly, dharmajñāḥ means one should know what is the order of God. That is dharma. But they do not know what is God. They do not believe in God, and what to speak about His order and law. This is the position. They do not know what is God. "God is zero, therefore His order is zero. I can do anything and everything." This is going on. But real dharmajñāḥ means one who knows what is religious principles. Dharmaṁ tu sākṣād bhagavat-praṇītam ([[Vanisource:SB 6.3.19|SB 6.3.19]]). Dharma means the orders given by God.

So one must know what is God; then one must know what is order. But there is. Just like Kṛṣṇa: Kṛṣṇa is accepted God by all the Vedic followers. In India there are ācāryas, ācārya-upāsanam: Rāmānuja Ācārya, Madhvācārya, Śaṅkarācārya, Nimbārditya. There are so many. There are different ācāryas, they are preaching about God, and they have accepted Kṛṣṇa as the Supreme Personality of Godhead, all of them. Indian Vedic civilization is guided by the ācāryas, not by the rascals and fools. ācāryas. Anyone who is not under the guidance of this ācārya, he is not accepted as bona fide follower of Veda. You cannot create.

Mahājano yena gataḥ sa panthāḥ ([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 17.186|CC Madhya 17.186]]). You cannot create one religion. No. Nowadays there are so many rascals, they are creating religion. Religion . . . just like you cannot create law. Is it possible? If the state law is that you must drive your car left, can you create the law, "No, I create the law it should be driven on the right"? Will you be accepted? Similarly, if you cannot create the law of the state, how you can create the law of God? Common sense. But they are creating, "Oh, this is a new type of religion I have created." "What you are, sir, you can create?" No, religion means the order of God, and it can be created only . . . it can be given by God, and we should receive it through the ācāryas.
