Nārada says, ''citra-padam api'' . . . ''vāsudeva-vyatiriktānya-viṣaya-jñānavād evānya-viṣayaṁ vāk-cāturyam''. Śrīdhara Svāmī, he comments (chuckles) that except describing the glories of the Lord, any literature, any science, any contribution is simply a jugglery of vocabulary. That's all. Jugglery. ''Vāk-cāturyam''. ''Vāk'' means vocabulary, and ''cāturya'' means jugglery. Simply setting some words in a jugglery way just to draw people's attention to waste time, that's all. ''Vāk-cāturyam''. ''Vāsudeva-vyatiriktānya-viṣaya-jñānavād evānya-viṣayaṁ vāk-cāturyaṁ'' (''ca'') ''khilam'', ''khilam eva ity aha'', ''khilam''. It is insignificant.

''Citra-padam api yad vaco harer yaśo na pragṛṇīta''. You can write nice books using your literary career, metaphor and, what is called, so many things; they are producing nice literature. But if there is no glorification of the Lord, then, ''harer yaśo pragṛṇīta tad vāyasaṁ tīrtham''. Then it is just like the place where the crows take pleasure. That's all. Because such kind of literature will be accepted by men who are like crows. 

''Tad vāyasaṁ tīrthaṁ kāka-tulyānāṁ kāmināṁ yati-sthānam uśanti manyante''. Just like ''kāminām'', those who are very lustful, what is their pleasure spot? That vagina, that's all. That urinal. That is their pleasure. Is urinal is very nice place? But he's sophisticated. He finds, "Oh, this is very nice place." This analytical study, (chuckling) how ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam'' is revolting, but . . . (laughter) 

But we must talk the real thing, (laughing) that this commentator, Śrīdhara Svāmī, he has given very nice example: ''kāmināṁ rati-sthānam''. As the lusty man finds pleasure in the vagina, similarly, this sort of literature, nonsense literature, are enjoyed by persons who are just like crows, not, what is called, swan. 

Swan will not go to that place. They will search out some place where there is nice transparent water and lotus flower, lilies, and nice trees and good birds. They are taking enjoyment. So even if you see among the animal society, in the bird society there is discrimination, and if in the human society there is no such discrimination, what kind of civilization that is? A crows' civilization. Black crows' civilization. Simply trying to take pleasure in nonsensical clubs, in liquor shop, in so-called cinema. They are trying to take pleasure there. They'll not . . .

Nārada is comparing that "Your so-called books describing about this ''dharma-artha-kāma-mokṣa'' ([[Vanisource:SB 4.8.41|SB 4.8.41]], [[Vanisource:CC Adi 1.90|CC Adi 1.90]]) is just like the ''kāka's'', or the crow's, pleasure-hunting." ''Na yad vacaś citra-padaṁ harer yaśo jagat-pavitram'' ([[Vanisource:SB 1.5.10|SB 1.5.10]]). "But if you produce a single literature wherein simply there is glorification of God, anyone who will read, he'll derive some immediately transcendental benefit." Produce a page only, ''Back to Godhead''. Oh, that will bring revolution to the human society about understanding of spiritual life. Don't produce nonsense literature. Try for one page. 

''Mānasa''. ''Mānasa sattva-pradhāne mānasi vartamāna haṁsa''. ''Haṁsa'' means the swans. Therefore called ''paramahaṁsa''. A highly elevated spiritual person is called ''paramahaṁsa''. ''Paramahaṁsa'' . . . in the ''sannyāsa'' stage there are four stages of development: ''kuṭīcaka'', ''bahūdaka'', ''parivrājakācārya'' and ''paramahaṁsa''. ''Kuṭīcaka'' . . . 

When a person takes ''sannyāsa'' he lives in a cottage outside the village, but does not go home. But he's not accustomed to travel or to beg from door to door; so whole day and night he keeps himself in that cottage, and from his relative and home something is supplied for his fooding. That is the stage of ''kuṭīcaka'': to take supply from home. 

Then next stage is ''bahūdaka''. When he comes to the understanding that, "I have given up my home. Why shall I take help from my home? I am considering that home is my place. Why not everyone my friends?" ''Vasudhaiva kuṭumbhakaḥ''. "Everyone is my family. Everyone," that is next stage. So he can go to everyone, "Will you kindly give me one ''cāpāṭi''?" Who will not give a ''sannyāsī''? Anyone will give. They are trained also like that, that any ''gṛhastha'', householder, if a ''sannyāsī'' comes, immediately he should be received and respected. That is also Vedic culture. 

A ''sannyāsī'' should be treated as the children of the society. Everyone. Still there is. If in a village a ''sannyāsī'' goes, he will get hundreds of invitation: "Swāmījī, please come. Take your ''bhikṣā'' at my place." So he has no question of eating and living. So many people will give him shelter. He'll not be in the wilderness. If actually a ''sannyāsī'', he travels all over the country, he has no problem. Village to village, everyone will receive him. It is called ''bahūdaka''. 

And then ''parivrājakācārya''. Then, when he still further elevated, then he gives instruction. Why he should eat only without giving something to them? He'll feel like that. "Why for nothing I shall accept food from others? I must give something. So whatever knowledge I have got I must distribute." This is ''parivrājakācārya''.</p>
