āhur dhūmra-dhiyo vedaṁ
sakarmakam atad-vidaḥ
Foolish people do not know the Lord’s planet where the Lord resides. Not knowing the Vedas, they speak of the Vedas in terms of prescribed karmas alone.
“Then why do my priests and the sages, learned men, make me do karmas such as sacrifices?” They do not know Vaikuṇṭha where the Lord resides. They know Svarga as their planet, because, having contaminated intelligence (dhūmra-dhiyaḥ), they say that karma is the ultimate message of the Vedas. They do not know the meaning of the Vedas. The Lord has said:
kālena naṣṭā pralaye vāṇīyaṁ veda-saṁjñitā
mayādau brahmaṇe proktā dharmo yasyāṁ mad-ātmakaḥ
By the influence of time, the Vedic knowledge was lost at the time of annihilation. Therefore, when the subsequent creation took place, I spoke to Brahmā the Vedic knowledge in which bhakti is the essence. SB 11.14.3
|| 4.29.49 ||
āstīrya darbhaiḥ prāg-agraiḥ
kārtsnyena kṣiti-maṇḍalam
stabdho bṛhad-vadhān mānī
karma nāvaiṣi yat param
tat karma hari-toṣaṁ yat
sā vidyā tan-matir yayā
Covering the whole earth with kuśa grass, with tips facing east, thinking yourself a great sacrificer because of sacrificing animals, and misbehaving, you do not know the supreme activity. That activity which is pleasing the Lord is the real activity. That activity by which one concentrates on the Lord is knowledge.
Taught by ignorant people, you have become a fool. You think (manī) you are a great sacrificer because you have killed animals and have bad conduct (stabdhaḥ). “What then is the supreme activity? Please tell me.” What is pleasing to the Lord is real activity. Anything else is not called activity. Anything else is not called knowledge.
