Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta
[Antya-līlā, Ch. 6]
the person who accepts such an offering;  duṅhāra —of both of them;  malina —contaminated;  haya mana —the mind becomes.
TRANSLATION
“When one accepts an invitation from a person contaminated by the material mode of passion, the person who offers the food and the person who accepts it are both mentally contaminated.
PURPORT
Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Thākura says that there are three varieties of invitations—those in the mode of goodness, those in passion and those in ignorance. An invitation accepted from a pure devotee is in the mode of goodness, an invitation accepted from a person who is prious but materially attached is in the mode of passion, and an invitation accepted from a person who is materially very sinful is in the mode of ignorance.
