etair upadruto nityaṁ

jīva-lokaḥ svabhāvajaiḥ

na karoti harer nūnaṁ

kathāmṛta-nidhau ratim

Those who are constantly disturbed by habitual hunger, thirst, fear, lamentation and illusion can never develop attraction for the ocean of nectar of topics concerning the Lord.

Bhakti will rarely blossom in those afflicted by hunger, thirst and fear, because they lack absorption in the rasa, caused by habitual lack of enthusiasm for thinking about topics of the Lord, due to lack of devotee association.

|| 4.29.42-44 ||

prajāpati-patiḥ sākṣād

bhagavān giriśo manuḥ

dakṣādayaḥ prajādhyakṣā

naiṣṭhikāḥ sanakādayaḥ

marīcir atry-aṅgirasau

pulastyaḥ pulahaḥ kratuḥ

bhṛgur vasiṣṭha ity ete

mad-antā brahma-vādinaḥ

adyāpi vācas-patayas

tapo-vidyā-samādhibhiḥ

paśyanto 'pi na paśyanti

paśyantaṁ parameśvaram

Omniscient Brahmā, the father of all progenitors, Śiva, Manu, Dakṣa and the other rulers of humankind, the four Kumāras, Marīci, Atri, Aṅgirā, Pulastya, Pulaha, Kratu, Bhṛgu, Vasiṣṭha, and I as well, though we know the Vedas and skilful at speaking and though even today we reflect upon the Supreme Lord by austerity, knowledge and concentration, cannot see the Lord who sees everything.

“Śruti says tarati śokam ātmavit: the knower of ātmā surpasses lamentation. What is the use of bhakti for the jñānīs?” Jñānīs never know the Lord. This is expressed by kaimutya-nyāya in four verses (We do not know the Lord. What then to speak of others?).  Bhagavān means “knowing everything.” I criticize not only these persons, but myself also. We try to see him by austerity, knowledge and meditation, but we do not use bhakti. Though they are actually all famous as devotees, they express themselves as very fallen, without bhakti. We are all expert at teaching the meaning of scriptures to others (vācaspataḥ), but we do not know the actual meaning of the scriptures, since we do no have bhakti. “Even today” indicates they are expert at austerities, knowledge and meditation. They reflect on the Lord, but do not see him. This means they do not know him.
