36 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 7, Ch. 1
down to the most abominable type of existence.” One who blasphemes
the Lord is put into a family of asuras, in which there is every chance of
forgetting the service of the Lord. Lord Krsna further states in
Bhagavad-gita (9.11-12):
avajdnanti mam midha
manusim tanum Gasritam
param bhadvam ajananto
mama. bhita-mahesvaram
Midhas, rascals, blaspheme the Supreme Lord because He appears ex-
actly like a human being. They do not know the unlimited opulence of
the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
moghasa mogha-karmano
mogha-jnand vicetasah
raksasim dsurim caiva
prakrtim mohinim sritah
Anything done by those who have taken the attitude of enemies will be
baffled (moghasah). If these enemies try to be liberated or to merge into
the existence of Brahman, if they desire to be elevated to the higher
planetary systems as karmis, or even if they desire to return home, back
to Godhead, they will certainly be baffled.

As for Hiranyakasipu, although he was extremely inimical toward the
Supreme Personality of Godhead, he always thought of his son, who was
a great devotee. Therefore by the grace of his son, Prahlada Maharaja,
Hiranyakasipu was also delivered by the Supreme Personality of
Godhead.

hiranyakasipus capi
bhagavan-nindayd tamah
vivaksur atyagat sitnoh
prahladasyanubhavatah
The conclusion is that one should not give up pure devotional service.
For one’s own benefit, one should not imitate Hiranyakasipu or Sisupala.
This is not the way to achieve success.
