If you stick to the moral principle, ethics and moral, then you will be entrapped by this, I mean to say, prideness that, "Oh, I am very moral. I do not speak lies. I do not steal. I treat with my neighbors very nicely. So I have no necessity to search out father. I am quite all right."
That means, this mundane moralist, if you become mundane moralist, or if you become mundane philosopher or if you stick to the ritualistic process of your particular faith, then there is no hope of reaching to the Absolute Truth. Mundane scriptural, ritualistic way and dry speculative philosophy and mundane moralist. Mundane moralist.
Just like Arjuna and his brother. His brother . . . eldest brother Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, he was very moralist, Dharmarāja. His name was "The king of religious principles," Dharmarāja. So Kṛṣṇa Himself advised him that, "You go to Droṇācārya and tell him a lie, that 'Your son is dead. Your son is dead.' " Now Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, he was a mundane moralist. He said: "Oh, how can I tell lie? How can I tell lie? I have never spoken lie in my life." So there was some argument. Of course this was, fight was, some compromise was made between them in the camp.
