Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta
[Antya-līlā, Ch. 10]
PURPORT
Karmīs , fruitive workers, cannot understand the finer conclusions of devotional service because they accept only its ritualistic value but do not understand how devotional service satisfies the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The  karmīs  view the formalities as a means of advancing in religion, economic development, sensual satisfaction and liberation. Although these are only material results of following religious principles, the  karmīs  consider them everything. Such ritualistic activities are called  karma .  Karmīs  who adopt devotional service very loosely and who therefore remain on the platform of material activities are called  prākṛta-sahajiyās . They cannot understand how pure devotional service is rendered in paternal and conjugal love, for this can be understood only by the special mercy bestowed by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu upon pure devotees.
