"Devotional service to Lord which is not firmly based on sastras, sruti, smruti, puranas, panchratra in the vaisnava cult, may appear to be bhakti but actuall it is not.

Not only it is not bhakti, but it is a disturbance on the path of bhakti. Because people without much knowledge can't distinguish between what is a genuine path and that which isn't."
