God is recognized as the supreme authority to whom all beings naturally turn in worship and devotion.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Hayagrīva: Samuel Alexander basically wrote one major book...
Hayagrīva: ...called: Space, Time and Deity.
Hayagrīva: And in this book he defines religion. He says, "Religion leans on metaphysics for the justification of its conviction of the reality of its object, God. Philosophy leans on religion to justify it, and calling the possessor of Deity by the religious name of 'God.' The two methods of approach, that is philosophy and religion, are therefore complementary." Prabhupda: Hm. That's right. Religion when it is combined with philosophy, that makes sense and religion without philosophy is sentiment. It has no practical value.
Hayagrīva: For Alexander religion is like hun...
Prabhupāda: We should say in this connection that Bhagavad-gt is religion and philosophy combined together.
Prabhupāda: The religion is God worship and everything explained there, just like immortality of the soul, that is philosophy. So it is combination of religion and philosophy--that makes sense.
Hayagrīva: For Alexander, "Religion is like hunger and God is the food for that hunger."
