TRANSLATION
“If you say that Krsna is an ocean of transcendental qualities and
therefore must be merciful some day, | can only say that He is like fire,
which attracts flies by its dazzling brightness and kills them. Such are the
qualities of Krsna. By showing us His transcendental qualities, He attracts
our minds, and then later, by separating from us, He drowns us in an
ocean of unhappiness.’ ”
