Just like a big politician, Gandhi, he also has Bhagavad-gita in his hand, but he never spoke throughout his whole life that Krsna is worshipable. He never spoke. Have you seen that he has advised that Krsna is worshipable? Never. Dr. Radhakrishnan, he is also so big scholar. He has commented on Bhagavad-gita. Rather, he says, "It is not to Krsna." When Krsna says, man-mana bhava mad-bhakto mad-yaji mam namaskuru [Bg. 18.65], Dr. Radhakrishnan says, "It is not to Krsna." That is the difficulty. Because they have no mercy of Krsna upon them, they cannot understand Krsna. Naham prakasah sarvasya yogamaya-samavrtah [Bg. 7.25]. Bhaktya mam abhijanati yavan yas casmi tattvatah [Bg. 18.55]. This is stated in the Bhagavad-gita. But they are not bhaktas. Tilak, he has described Bhagavad-gita as a karmi, never said that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. You'll find like that, so many, what to speak of others? There are about six hundred commentaries on Bhagavad-gita, all misleading. Therefore we have presented Bhagavad-gita As It Is, without any misinterpretation. And it is acting. These six hundred editions of Bhagavad-gita was being advertised in the Western countries, and so many scholars and swamis went therenot a single person became a devotee of Krsna, not a single for the last two hundred, three hundred years. Before that, there was no such attempt, but for the last at least hundred years, or more than that, many Indians went to the Western countries to preach our philosophy, and they referred to Bhagavad-gita and so on, but unfortunately not a single person became a devotee of Krsna, not a single person. But as we presented Bhagavad-gita as it is, within five years, thousands and thousands have become devotee of Krsna. One can compare this.   (More...)
