“Bhagavat Dharma Samaj is based on the exact teachings of Srimad Bhagavatam and expounds these principles philosophically and scientifically so the modern mind can grasp it.”

“O human beings, if you are really serious about obtaining the ultimate goal of life please leave the association of heretics, rascals and showboat devotees, and associate with the real devotees of the Lord. If you follow this rule and chant the holy names of Lord Krsna (Visnu), who rewards pleasure to His sincere followers while they’re alive and after death rewards them liberation, you will surely have success at hand.”

—Visnu Purana

“The speaker of Srimad Bhagavatam should be born into an unbroken Brahmana dynasty connected to the Lord and they should be initiated by a devotee Spiritual Master coming in an unbroken chain of disciplic succession from the Lord Himself. He must have the flame-like holy mark of Tilak on his forehead. If such a devotee is found, one should listen to Srimad Bhagavatam from him because such a devotee is very dear to the Lord and the listener receives blessings from the Lord for hearing from such a devotee.”

—Skanda Purana

“Any fortunate sincere soul blessed to receive this knowledge will be safe from all heretics. Although the truly sincere are very few in number, we will always exist. Till our last breath, we will preach the timeless knowledge of the Vedas.”

“Our mission is to teach everyone how to detect pseudo spiritualists by writing books, so everyone can save themselves from getting misled. We are not worried who will become our devotee, and who will not. We are dedicated to expose heretics by revealing the Vedic truth hidden in the scriptures.”

“Bhagavat Dharma Samaj is based on the exact teachings of Srimad Bhagavatam and expounds these principles philosophically and scientifically so the modern mind can grasp it. Intelligent people in search of real truth will get exceptional spiritual guidance from our edition of Srimad Bhagavatam, because we neither speculate, dilute, or change anything from the original Vedic text.”

“O king, there are many people that speak sweetly and please the mind, but it is very rare and difficult to find a person who frankly speaks the exact scriptural truth uncompromisingly. It is also difficult to find people to listen to such strict statements and maintain a peaceful mind.”

—Valmiki Ramayan
