“Parvata Muni continued, ‘My dear friend Nārada Muni, you are glorified as the sage among the demigods. By your mercy, even a lowborn person like this hunter can immediately become attached to Lord Krṣṇa.’
PURPORT
A pure Vaiṣṇava believes in the statements of the  śāstras . This verse is quoted from Vedic literature, the  Skanda Purāṇa .
TEXT 279
নারদ কহে,—‘বৈষ্ণব, তোমার অন্ন কিছু আয়   ?’ ব্যাধ কহে, “যারে পাঠাও, সেই দিয়া যায় ॥ ২৭৯ ॥
nārada kahe ,—‘vaiṣṇava, tomāra anna kichu āya?’ vyādha kahe, “yāre pāṭhāo, sei diyā yāya
SYNONYMS
nārada kahe —Nārada Muni said;  vaiṣṇava —O Vaiṣṇava;  tomāra —your;  anna —food;  kichu āya —does any come;  vyādha kahe —the hunter replied;  yāre pāṭhāo —whoever you send;  sei —that person;  diyā —giving something;  yāya —goes.
TRANSLATION
“Nārada Muni then asked the hunter, ‘My dear Vaiṣṇava, do you have some income for your maintenance?’ The hunter replied, ‘My dear spiritual master, whoever you send gives me something when he comes to see me.’
PURPORT
This confirms the statement in  Bhagavad-gītā  (9.22) to the effect that the Lord carries all necessities to His Vaiṣṇava devotee. Nārada Muni asked the former hunter how he was being maintained, and he replied that everyone who came to see him brought him something for his maintenance. Kṛṣṇa, who is situated in everyone's heart, says, "I personally carry all necessities to a Vaiṣṇava." He can order anyone to execute this. Everyone is ready to give something to a Vaiṣṇava, and if a Vaiṣṇava is completely engaged in devotional service, he need not be anxious for his maintenance.
