Explanation of Devotional Service
1251
A devotee should not be proud of his acquisitions. The symptoms of a devotee are meekness and humility. Although very spiritually advanced, he will always remain meek and humble, as Kavirāja Gosvāmī and all the other Vaiṣṇavas have taught us by personal example. Caitanya Mahāprabhu taught that one should be humbler than the grass on the street and more tolerant than the tree. One should not be proud or falsely puffed up. In this way one will surely advance in spiritual life.
TEXT 19
मद्धर्मणो गुणैरेतैः परिसंशुद्ध आशयः । 
  पुरुषस्याञ्जसाभ्येति श्रुतमात्रगुणं हि माम् ॥१९॥
mad-dharmaṇo guṇair etaiḥ 
  parisaṁśuddha āśayaḥ 
  puruṣasyāñjasābhyeti 
  śruta-mātra-guṇaṁ hi mām
mat-dharmaṇaḥ—of My devotee; guṇaiḥ—with the attributes; etaiḥ—these; parisaṁśuddhaḥ—completely purified; āśayaḥ—consciousness; puruṣasya—of a person; añjasā—instantly; abhyeti—approaches; śruta—by hearing; mātra—simply; guṇam—quality; hi—certainly; mām—Me.
TRANSLATION
When one is fully qualified with all these transcendental attributes and his consciousness is thus completely purified, he is immediately attracted simply by hearing My name or hearing of My transcendental quality.
PURPORT
In the beginning of this instruction, the Lord explained to His mother that  mad-guṇa-śruti-mātreṇa , simply by hearing the name, quality, form, etc., of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one is immediately attracted. A person becomes fully qualified with all transcendental qualities by following the rules and regulations, as recommended in different scriptures. We have developed certain unnecessary qualities by material association, and by following the above process we become free from that contamination. To develop transcendental qualities, as explained in the previous verse, one must become free from these contaminated qualities.
