== Srimad-Bhagavatam ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== SB Canto 1 ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;q_heading&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;This cycle of occupational engagements includes so-called religiosity followed by material gain and material gain followed by fulfillment of desires. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;SB-statistics&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Vanisource:SB 1.2.9|SB 1.2.9, Purport]]:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; The general tendency of any ordinary man in any part of the world is to gain some material profit in exchange for religious or any other occupational service. Even in the Vedic literatures, for all sorts of religious performances an allurement of material gain is offered, and most people are attracted by such allurements or blessings of religiosity. Why are such so-called men of religion allured by material gain? Because material gain can enable one to fulfill desires, which in turn satisfy sense gratification. This cycle of occupational engagements includes so-called religiosity followed by material gain and material gain followed by fulfillment of desires. Sense gratification is the general way for all sorts of fully occupied men. But in the statement of Sūta Gosvāmī, as per the verdict of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, this is nullified by the present śloka.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;q_heading&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;So in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the so-called religiosity, which is more or less cheating, is projjhita, prakṛṣṭa-rūpena ujjhita, is completely swept over.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;LEC-statistics&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;[[Vanisource:Lecture on SB 7.9.9 -- Montreal, July 6, 1968|Lecture on SB 7.9.9 -- Montreal, July 6, 1968]]:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Somebody is in goodness, somebody is in passion, somebody is in ignorance. Therefore the division is brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya, śūdra. &amp;quot;But,&amp;quot; He advised him, nistraiguṇyo bhavārjuna, &amp;quot;just transcend to the three qualities of this material nature.&amp;quot; That transcendental position is this bhakti. So unless one comes to the platform of bhakti, simply by dharma artha kāma mokṣa will not give him the highest perfection. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, therefore, begins with this understanding: dharma projjhita-kaitavo &amp;#039;tra. Kaitava means cheating. Cheating. So in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, the so-called religiosity, which is more or less cheating, is projjhita, prakṛṣṭa-rūpena ujjhita, is completely swept over. So dharma artha kāma mokṣa is not the highest perfection. Generally, people, they take to religiosity for material gain, artha, dharma, artha. And material gain means to satisfy the senses, kāma. And when they are frustrated in satisfying the senses, they then want mokṣa.&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
