TRANSLATION
‘““‘When the living entity is attracted by the material energy, which is sepa-
rate from Krsna, he is overpowered by fear. Because he is separated from the
Supreme Personality of Godhead by the material energy, his conception of life
is reversed. In other words, instead of being the eternal servant of Krsna, he
becomes Krsna’s competitor. This is called viparyayo ‘smrtih. To nullify this
mistake, one who is actually learned and advanced worships the Supreme Per-
sonality of Godhead as his spiritual master, worshipful Deity and source of
life. He thus worships the Lord by the process of unalloyed devotional
service.’
