How Can One Sacrifice Justice For God

Aum Sairam

How can one sacrifice justice [dharma] for God?

Dharma is greater than the Lord. Krishna asked Dharma Raja to tell a lie. Dharma Raja told the lie by uttering the word “elephant” in a low voice. Therefore Dharma Raja went to hell for uttering the lie as advised by Krishna.

Shree Bhagwad Gita says Sarva Dharman Parityajya, which means that the Lord is greater than justice. The Lord Datta is protecting the deity of justice, who is shown as a cow. The protector is greater than the protected. Therefore Dharma Raja went to hell for a greater sin than telling a lie. The greater sin is not following the advice of the Lord. [He should have told the lie without hesitation when Lord Krishna advised him to do so. But since he hesitated, he went to hell.]
