Purport

The injunction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, is the essence of all Vedic wisdom and therefore is eternally true without exception. As the Vedas are eternal, so this truth of Kṛṣṇa consciousness is also eternal. One should have firm faith in this injunction, without envying the Lord. There are many philosophers who write comments on the Bhagavad-gītā but have no faith in Kṛṣṇa. They will never be liberated from the bondage of fruitive action. But an ordinary man with firm faith in the eternal injunctions of the Lord, even though unable to execute such orders, becomes liberated from the bondage of the law of karma. In the beginning of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, one may not fully discharge the injunctions of the Lord, but because one is not resentful of this principle and works sincerely without consideration of defeat and hopelessness, he will surely be promoted to the stage of pure Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

Jumala Kõrgeima Isiksuse, Kṛṣṇa juhendused on kogu vedatarkuse olulisim osa, sest need on, ühegi erandita, igavesti tõesed. Nii nagu „Vedad" on igavesed, niisamuti on ka Kṛṣṇa teadvuse tõde igavene. Nendesse juhendustesse tuleb omada kõigutamatut usku, kadestamata Jumalat. On palju filosoofe, kes kirjutavad kommentaare „Bhagavad-gītāle", kuid kes ei usu Kṛṣṇasse. Nemad ei vabane kunagi karmaliste tegevuste köidikuist. Samas aga tavaline inimene, kes usub kõrvalekaldumatult Jumala igavesi juhendusi, isegi siis, kui ta pole võimeline Jumala korraldusi täitma, saab vabaks karma seaduste köidikuist. Kṛṣṇa teadvuse arendamise alguses võib inimene mõningaid Jumala juhendusi ka mitte järgida, ent kui ta tunnistab Jumala korralduste järgimise printsiipi ja töötab siiralt, mõtlemata võimalikele kaotustele või lootusetutele olukordadele, siis jõuab ta kindlasti puhta Kṛṣṇa teadvuse tasandile.
