Translation

An intelligent person does not take interest in a place, even in the topmost planetary system, if the pure Ganges of topics concerning the Supreme Lord’s activities does not flow there, if there are not devotees engaged in service on the banks of such a river of piety, or if there are no festivals of saṅkīrtana-yajña to satisfy the Lord [especially since saṅkīrtana-yajña is recommended in this age].

हिन्दी टीका-पाठ

‘जहाँ भगवत्कथाकी अमृतमयी सरिता नहीं बहती, जहाँ उसके उद्गमस्थान भगवद्भक्त साधुजन निवास नहीं करते और जहाँ नृत्य-गीतादिके साथ बड़े समारोहसे भगवान् यज्ञपुरुषकी पूजा-अर्चा नहीं की जाती—वह चाहे ब्रह्मलोक ही क्यों न हो, उसका सेवन नहीं करना चाहिये॥ २४॥
