In the future, not in my presence, you will be able to praise me sufficiently. Skilful bards! Since the Supreme Lord’s pastimes should be sung, the assembly should not praise a low person like me.
“Ocean of qualities! All these qualities will become manifest in you clearly in the future. Knowing that, we praise you.” When my qualities become manifest then you can glorify me as much as you want. But do not do that now. Who will forbid you? But do it indirectly, not directly. O persons who have skill in attractive words! It is not proper to embarrass a person by glorifying him face to face. “What should we do? Inspired by the assembly we have begun to glorify you.” That is useless. The pastimes of the Lord should be chanted at all times and places. Thus you should not praise a low, recent person like me. Otherwise you are not a worthy assembly.
|| 4.15.24 ||
mahad-guṇān ātmani kartum īśaḥ
kaḥ stāvakaiḥ stāvayate 'sato 'pi
te 'syābhaviṣyann iti vipralabdho
janāvahāsaṁ kumatir na veda
What person who has the qualities of the Lord would have others praise him? What to speak of a person who does not have the qualities! The fool does not understand that he is the butt of a joke, mocked by the promise of having such qualities in the future.
“But you are the Supreme Lord, worthy of praise.” Though it is possible for the best person to manifest in himself qualities of the Lord, what wise person would make others glorify him? No one would do that, even if he has the qualities. If he does not have the qualities, and cannot manifest such qualities, only a fool would have others praise him. That fool does not know it is an insult. How? By words like “If he had studies arts and scripture he would have been a great scholar” he is mocked by others.
