Looking good from outside, inside I'm full of lust. 

I am worse than a prostitute, I seek bodily pleasure every moment. 

My mind gets agitated at the smallest of pretext. 

The desire for fame has married sense gratification within me. 

And its children have burned  down the small shoots of devotion within my heart, Leaving it hard and black. 

I therefore beg Guru and all the Vaisanavas to feel pity on me, please bless me to have continuous association of Sadhus and shastras. 

There won't be a more f

तेरी ही पलकों के इशारे पर मुनि-मन-मोहिनी महामाया-नटी थिरक-थिरक कर नाच रही है। तेरे हीं संकेत से महान देव रुद्र अखण्ड ताण्डव-नॄत्य करते हैं। तुझे हीं रिझाने के लिए हाथ में वीणा लिए सदानन्दी नारद मतवाला नाच नाच रहे हैं। तेरी ही प्रसन्नता के लिए व्यास-वाल्मीकि और शुक-सनकादि घूम-घूमकर और झूम-झूमकर तेरा गुण-गान करते हैं। तेरा रूप तो बड़ा हीं अनोखा है, जब तेरी वह रूप-माधुरी खुद तुझी को दीवाना बनाए डालती है, तब ग्यानी-महात्मा, साधु-सन्तों और प्रेमी भक्तों के उस पर लोक-परलोक निछावर कर देने

By development of Krsna consciousness one can know that everything has its use in the service of the Lord.
On the higher platform, there is nothing material when everything is accepted in relationship with Krishna or the Supreme Spirit.

If one disregards and disrespects Vaishnavas, he commits an offence. Sinful reactions are nullified simply by undergoing ordinary atonement; but offences are not nullified so easily. A sin is committed by both gross and subtle bodies; an offence degrades one's self-realization. Therefore, those who desire to worship the Supreme Lord must be careful not to commit offences.
