TRANSLATION
-
Both the monist philosophers and those bewildered by worldly affairs live in vain, for both are devoid of devotion to You.
-
I pray at Your lotus feet, O Lord, that I may be spared the company of them both.
-
Yet of the two the worldly man is better. I ask never to have the company of mayavadi.
-
When the worldly man enters into the company of saintly persons within his heart he becomes inspired by pure devotion through the mercy of those devotees.
-
But woe to him who has known the offensive presence of impersonalist philosophy. Such sophistry makes the heart hard as a thunderbolt.
-
The mayavada philosopher declares that the true form of bhakti, its object (Sri Krishna), and its possessor (the devotee) are all transitory and thus illusory.
-
Fie on his pretense of service to Krishna, of hearing and chanting His glories! His so-called prayers strike the body of Krishna with blows more cruel that a thunderbolt.
-
There is no philosophy as antagonistic to devotional service as mayavada philosophy. Therefore I do not desire the association of the mayavadi.
-
Bhaktivinoda drives away the philosophy of illusionism and sits safely in the society of Vaisnavas under the shelter of the holy name.
