== Bhagavad-gita As It Is ==

=== BG Chapters 13 - 18 ===

'''A man in the mode of goodness is not so much affected by material miseries, and he has a sense of advancement in material knowledge.'''

<span class="BG-statistics">'''[[Vanisource:BG 14.6|BG 14.6, Purport]]:''' The effect of developing the mode of goodness in the material world is that one becomes wiser than those otherwise conditioned. A man in the mode of goodness is not so much affected by material miseries, and he has a sense of advancement in material knowledge. The representative type is the brāhmaṇa, who is supposed to be situated in the mode of goodness. This sense of happiness is due to understanding that, in the mode of goodness, one is more or less free from sinful reactions. Actually, in the Vedic literature it is said that the mode of goodness means greater knowledge and a greater sense of happiness.

== Srimad-Bhagavatam ==

=== SB Canto 1===

'''We may, therefore, invent by our advancement of material knowledge all sorts of counteracting material resources, but without being guided by the Lord all such inventions end in fiasco.'''

<span class="SB-statistics">'''[[Vanisource:SB 1.8.38|SB 1.8.38, Purport]]:''' No one should be proud of his prestige, power and fame without being guided by the favor of the Supreme Lord. The living beings are always dependent, and the ultimate dependable object is the Lord Himself. We may, therefore, invent by our advancement of material knowledge all sorts of counteracting material resources, but without being guided by the Lord all such inventions end in fiasco, however strong and stout the reactionary elements may be.

'''Material knowledge means ignorance of the knowledge of one's own self.'''

<span class="SB-statistics">'''[[Vanisource:SB 1.12.28|SB 1.12.28, Purport]]:''' Material knowledge means ignorance of the knowledge of one's own self. Philosophy means to seek after the right knowledge of one's own self, or the knowledge of self-realization. Without self-realization, philosophy is dry speculation or a waste of time and energy. Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam gives the right knowledge of one's own self, and by hearing Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam one can get free from material attachment and enter into the kingdom of fearlessness. This material world is fearfulness. Its prisoners are always fearful as within a prison house.
