That man who is under false prestige, impression that, "I am this," "I am that," "I am higher," he cannot deliver himself even, because what is the value of false prestige? False prestige has no value. If you are actually brahmin or if you are actually king, you can be proud of your position that, "I am king," "I am this" or "that."

That man who is under false prestige, impression that, "I am this," "I am that," "I am higher," he cannot deliver himself even, because what is the value of false prestige? False prestige has no value. If you are actually brahmin or if you are actually king, you can be proud of your position that, "I am king," "I am this" or "that." But actually if you are less than the śvapacaṁ, the dog-eaters, but why should you be proud of your false prestige?

Therefore by that false prestige he cannot even deliver himself, what to speak of his family. That is stated here. That man, śvapaca, born . . . because he has dedicated his life, his mind and words for Kṛṣṇa, he is able to deliver himself and his family; but this man who is puffed out with false prestige, he cannot deliver himself only, and what to speak of his family. This is clearly described by Prahlāda Mahārāja. Tasmin aravinda-nābhe-arpita mano-ardhāya yena tam idam karmah. Manye tad-arpita-mano-vacanehitārtha. Because he has dedicated his life for Kṛṣṇa, therefore he can do this. He can purify himself and purify his family.
