	~~INTRODUCTION TEXT TO BE WRITTEN~~		Hypocrisy is a sinful activity. If one is pure from the very beginning, there will be no chance of becoming a hypocrite. He will be very clear and open in all his dealings. As soon as there is sin, there will be hypocrisy. The inside and outside of a spiritual person must be the same. Weakness in character is hypocrisy. If one is weak, one should not take on a spiritual post like that of a priest. It is also hypocrisy to doubt the words of the spiritual master after having taken shelter of him. One must first of all be convinced. Therefore it is the duty of the spiritual master and the disciple to associate before they accept each other.

That is the greatest hypocrisy. Jesus Christ said, "Do not kill," but hypocrites nevertheless maintain thousands of slaughterhouses while posing as Christians\|One cannot continue killing animals and at the same time be a religious man. That is the greatest hypocrisy. Jesus Christ said, "Do not kill," but hypocrites nevertheless maintain thousands of slaughterhouses while posing as Christians.

'''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Madhya-līlā 24.253)'''}}

	{{VaniQuotebox\|~~VANIQUOTESPAGETITLE~~\|~~QUOTESEENBYTHEREADER~~. '''(~~REFERENCE~~)'''}}		{{VaniQuotebox\|Everyone wants to exploit the state resources till he dies. No one retires from political life unless forced to do so. How can such low-grade men do good to the people? The result is corruption, intrigue and hypocrisy\|The cabinet of ministers changes often due to party and group selfishness. Everyone wants to exploit the state resources till he dies. No one retires from political life unless forced to do so. How can such low-grade men do good to the people? The result is corruption, intrigue and hypocrisy. They should learn from the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam how ideal the administrators must be before they can be given charge of different posts. '''(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 1.12.18)'''}}

'''(~~REFERENCE~~)'''}}		{{VaniQuotebox\|Caitanya tolerated no hypocrisy among His followers\|When the Lord learned that the wife of one of His householder devotees was pregnant, He asked that the baby be given a certain auspicious name. So while the Lord approved of householders having regulated sex, He was like a thunderbolt with those in the renounced order who tried to cheat by the method known as "drinking water under water while bathing on a fast day." In other words, He tolerated no hypocrisy among His followers. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Introduction)'''}}

			{{VaniQuotebox\|Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, the ocean of mercy, chastised Junior Haridasa, although Junior Haridasa was His dear devotee, to establish that one in the devotional line, engaged in pure devotional service, should not be a hypocrite\|Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the ocean of mercy, chastised Junior Haridāsa, to establish that one in the devotional line, engaged in pure devotional service, should not be a hypocrite. For a person engaged in devotional service in the renounced order, having intimate relationships with women is certainly hypocrisy. This chastisement was given to Junior Haridāsa as an example to future sahajiyās who might adopt the dress of the renounced order to imitate Rūpa Gosvāmī and other bona fide sannyāsīs but secretly have illicit connections with women. '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Anyta-līlā 2.143 )'''}}

			{{VaniQuotebox\|In the present age of darkness, which is known as the Kali-yuga, the age of quarrel, hypocrisy, and ignorance, virtually everyone is born a sudra\|Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the all-attractive Personality of Godhead, is the Absolute Truth in all creation, and Śrīmad Bhagavad-gītā is the supreme scripture within the universe. According to other scriptures such as the Purāṇas, even a caṇḍāla, or a person of the fifth social order (lower than a śūdra), becomes more than a person of the first order (a brāhmaṇa) by dint of his transcendental devotional service. '''(Message of Godhead, Chapter 2)'''}}

			{{VaniQuotebox\|In this age of quarrel and hypocrisy, the only means of deliverance is the chanting of the holy names of the Lord. There is no other way. There is no other way. There is no other way\|"In this age of quarrel and hypocrisy, the only means of deliverance is the chanting of the holy names of the Lord. There is no other way. There is no other way. There is no other way." '''(Caitanya-caritāmṛta, Madhya-līlā 6.242)'''}}

Nor is it for hypocrites or for persons who are proud of material possessions. '''(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 3.32.39)'''}}

But all these contending difficulties can be mitigated by one process, and that is the devotional service of the Lord. The world of hypocrisy can be checked only by counteraction through devotional service to the Lord and nothing else. '''(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 1.14.4)'''}}
