"One may be very educated, very good scholar in Vedic knowledge, but if he does not accept Viṣṇu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, or Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead . . . Viṣṇu and Kṛṣṇa the same. Viṣṇu-tattva. Viṣṇu-tattva means the category of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. So durāśayā ye bahir-artha-māninaḥ (SB 7.5.31). Out of false hopes, they are trying to become successful. That is not possible. Durāśayā. Such kind of hope is useless hope. It will never be . . . Moghāśā mogha-karmāṇaḥ (BG 9.12). Leaving aside Viṣṇu, and simply they are trying to become very highly learned, mogha-jñāna vicetasaḥ (BG 9.12). So they are mogha, means their hopes will never be successful. They may go on."
