Adi-lila, Chapter 7 33
PURPORT
Foolish Mayavadis, not knowing that the Krsna consciousness movement is based
on a solid philosophy of transcendental science, superficially conclude that those
who dance and chant do not have philosophical knowledge. Those who are Krsna
conscious actually have full knowledge of the essence of Vedanta philosophy, for
they study the real commentary on the Vedanta philosophy, Srimad-Bhagavatam,
and follow the actual words of the Supreme Personality of Godhead as found in
Bhagavad-gita As It Is. After understanding the Bhagavata philosophy or Bhagavata-
dharma, they become fully spiritually conscious or Krsna conscious, and therefore
their chanting and dancing is not material but is on the spiritual platform. Although
everyone admires the ecstatic chanting and dancing of the devotees, who are there-
fore popularly known as the “Hare Krsna people,” Mayavadis cannot appreciate
these activities because of their poor fund of knowledge.

As Krsna conscious devotees, we do not like to converse with Mayavadi philoso-
phers simply to waste valuable time, but whenever there is an opportunity we
impress our philosophy upon them with great vigor and success.
