Translation

The demigods continue: After performing the very difficult tasks of executing Vedic ritualistic sacrifices, undergoing austerities, observing vows and giving charity, we have achieved this position as inhabitants of the heavenly planets. But what is the value of this achievement? Here we are certainly very engaged in material sense gratification, and therefore we can hardly remember the lotus feet of Lord Nārāyaṇa. Indeed, because of our excessive sense gratification, we have almost forgotten His lotus feet.

किं दुष्करैर्न: क्रतुभिस्तपोव्रतै- र्दानादिभिर्वा द्युजयेन फल्गुना। न यत्र नारायणपादपङ्कज- स्मृति: प्रमुष्टातिशयेन्द्रियोत्सवात्॥ २२

हिन्दी टीका-पाठ

हमें बड़े कठोर यज्ञ, तप, व्रत और दानादि करके जो यह तुच्छ स्वर्गका अधिकार प्राप्त हुआ है—इससे क्या लाभ है? यहाँ तो इन्द्रियोंके भोगोंकी अधिकताके कारण स्मृतिशक्ति छिन जाती है, अत: कभी श्रीनारायणके चरणकमलोंकी स्मृति होती ही नहीं॥ २२॥

स्रोत-खंड सीमा · यह हिन्दी अंश गीता प्रेस डिजिटल पाठ में इस दृश्य श्लोक-इकाई के बाद आता है; इसे स्वतः एक-से-एक टीका या संस्करण-समानता नहीं माना गया है।
