Adi-lila, Chapter 8 201
vaisnavera guna-grahi, na dekhaye dosa
kaya-mano-vakye kare vaisnava-santosa
SYNONYMS
vaisnavera—of devotees; guna-grahi—accepting good qualities; na—never; dekhaye—
sees; dosa—any fault; kaya-manah-vakye—with heart and soul; kare—does; vaisnava—
devotee; santosa—pacification.
TRANSLATION
He always accepted the-good qualities of Vaisnavas and never found fault in them.
He engaged his heart and soul only to satisfy the Vaisnavas.
PURPORT
It is a qualification of a Vaisnava that he is adosa-darsi; he never sees others’
faults. Of course, every human being has both good qualities and faults. Therefore
it is said, sajjana gunam icchanti dosam icchanti pamarah: everyone has a combina-
tion of faults and glories. But a Vaisnava, a sober man, accepts only a man’s glories
and not his faults, for flies seek sores whereas honeybees seek honey. Haridasa
Pandita never found fault with a Vaisnava but considered only his good qualities.
