| So in the Bhagavad-gītā He is giving us the principles of dharma. Sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja [[Vanisource:BG 18.66|BG 18.66]] . He said to Arjuna, "Because you are My very dear friend, I am giving you the most confidential information, that sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja. " This is dharma. Dharma, satyam, truthfulness. That is also reduced, being reduce. Dharma means to become devotee of the Lord. That is practically not reduced. It is practically nil. And people have manufactured so many dharmas, dharma without the principle of God consciousness. So, according to Vedic principle, that is not dharma. Vedic principle says, sa vai puṁsāṁ paro dharmo yato bhaktir adhokṣaje [[Vanisource:BG 18.66|BG 18.66]] . That is first-class religion which teaches people how to become devotee of the Supreme Lord. Paro dharmaḥ. Paraḥ means transcendental. There are many kinds of dharmas, and according to Vedic system, there are twenty different types of books, viṁśati-prakāśa-dharma, given by different sages. But the conclusion is that that is first-class dharma which is convenient for becoming a devotee of the Lord. In the Bhagavad-gītā also, the same thing: sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja [[Vanisource:BG 18.66|BG 18.66]] . In another place, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, it is said, dharmaḥ projjita-kaitavo atra. Atra, Śrīmad-Bhāgavata, Bhāgavate, projjhita. Projjhita means prakṛṣṭa-rūpeṇa ujjhita, very cleansely swept away. That means it is taken away, projjhita. Just like we sweep very nicely, cleansely, our room, similarly all types of cheating religion is wiped out, swept away. Dharmaḥ projjhita-kaitavo atra [[Vanisource:BG 18.66|BG 18.66]] . | | So in the ''Bhagavad-gītā'' He is giving us the principles of ''dharma.

| | So, according to Vedic principle, that is not ''dharma''. Vedic principle says, ''sa vai puṁsāṁ paro dharmo yato bhaktir adhokṣaje'' ([[vanisource:SB 1.2.6|SB 1.2.6]]). That is first-class religion which teaches people how to become devotee of the Supreme Lord. ''Paro dharmaḥ. Paraḥ'' means transcendental.
