Sanskrit

अस्त्येव राजन् भवतो मधुद्विष: पादारविन्दस्य गुणानुवादने । रतिर्दुरापा विधुनोति नैष्ठिकी कामं कषायं मलमन्तरात्मन: ॥ २० ॥

Transliteration

asty eva rājan bhavato madhudviṣaḥ pādāravindasya guṇānuvādane ratir durāpā vidhunoti naiṣṭhikī kāmaṁ kaṣāyaṁ malam antar-ātmanaḥ
Synonyms
asti — there is; eva — certainly; rājan — O King; bhavataḥ — your; madhu-dviṣaḥ — of the Lord; pāda-aravindasya — of the lotus feet; guṇa-anuvādane — in glorifying; ratiḥ — attachment; durāpā — very difficult; vidhunoti — washes; naiṣṭhikī — unflinching; kāmam — lusty; kaṣāyam — the embellishment of lusty desire; malam — dirty; antaḥ-ātmanaḥ — from the core of the heart.

Translation

Sanat-kumāra continued: My dear King, you already have an inclination to glorify the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Such attachment is very difficult to achieve, but when one has attained such unflinching faith in the Lord, it automatically cleanses lusty desires from the core of the heart.
