অন্যকামী যদি করে কৃষ্ণের ভজন ।
না মাগিলেও কৃষ্ণ তারে দেন স্বচরণ ॥
কৃষ্ণ কহে—আমা ভজে, মাগে বিষয়-সুখ ।
অমৃত ছাড়ি’ বিষ মাগে, এই বড় মূর্খ ॥
আমি বিজ্ঞ, এই মূর্খে বিষয় কেনে দিব ? ।
স্বচরণামৃত দিয়া বিষয় ভুলাইব ॥
anya-kāmī yadi kare kṛṣṇera bhajana |
nā māgileo kṛṣṇa tāre dena sva-caraṇa ||
kṛṣṇa kahe—āmā bhaje, māge viṣaya-sukha |
amṛta chāḍi’ viṣa māge—ei baḍa mūrkha ||
āmi vijña, ei mūrkhe viṣaya kene diba? |
sva-caraṇāmṛta diyā viṣaya bhulāiba ||
(Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta: 2.22.37–39)
“If someone with other desires [i.e., someone who desires anything other than Kṛṣṇa] engages in worship of Kṛṣṇa, then Kṛṣṇa gives them his own feet even though they did not ask [for them]. Kṛṣṇa says [i.e., considers], ‘They worship me but ask for the pleasure of sense objects; they reject nectar and ask for poison. They are a great fool. I [on the contrary] am wise. [So,] Why should I give this fool objects of the senses? I will give them the nectar of my own feet and make them forget about objects of the senses.’”
