PURPORT

Ramacandra Khan was a great offender at the lotus feet of the Vaisnavas and
Visnu. Just as Ravana, although born of a brahmana father, ViSvasrava, was
nevertheless called an asura or raksasa because of his offenses against Lord Rama-
candra (Visnu) and Hanuman (a Vaisnava), so Ramacandra Khan also became such
an asura because of his offenses against Haridasa Thakura and many others.
