TRANSLATION

“The Supreme Personality of Godhead, who is known as Purusottama, the
greatest of all persons, has a pure mind. He is so gentle that even if His servant
is implicated in a great offense, He does not take it very seriously. Indeed, if
His servant renders some small service, the Lord accepts it as being very great.
Even if an envious person blasphemes the Lord, the Lord never manifests
anger against him. Such are His great qualities.”
