A
- A humble Vaisnava, thinking his body material and nasty, does not accept such preparations for himself. He thinks that by accepting such things he will offend the lotus feet of the Lord
- An offense at the feet of a Vaisnava is more dangerous than an offense at the lotus feet of the Lord. Vidura was certainly very liberal to bestow mercy upon his brother Dhrtarastra, whose past life was very materialistic
- Arcye visnau sila-dhih: everyone knows that the Deity in the temple is made of stone, but to think that the Deity is merely stone is an offense
B
- By avoiding offenses against the Deity and the spiritual master, one can advance in spiritual life, or Krsna consciousness
- By inviting You to this negligible sacrifice for some material motive, we have certainly committed a great offense at Your lotus feet. Therefore, O Lord of lords, please excuse our offense because of Your causeless mercy and equal mind
E
- Even if a person is a severe offender in many ways, he is freed from offensive life if he takes shelter of the Lord's holy name
- Even if one is liberated in this life, he becomes addicted to material desires because of offenses to the Supreme Personality of Godhead
- Even though one is liberated in this life, if one offends the Supreme Personality of Godhead he falls down in the midst of material desires, of which dry speculation about spiritual realization is one
H
- He (a devotee) thinks that by accepting such things (as garlands, bedsteads, nice ornaments, nice food and even nicely prepared pan, betel nuts) he will offend the lotus feet of the Lord
- He (Prahlada) was given everything, but by his that refusal, He (Nrsimhadev) was very much pleased. Not that He was offended, "Oh, I am offering, and you are not accepting?" No
I
- If one becomes an offender to his spiritual master or the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he falls down to the material platform to merely speculate
- If one offends an exalted personality, especially the Supreme Personality of Godhead, one certainly becomes most abominable; bereft of the results of pious activities, one must fall down like Ravana and other demons
- If one poses himself as an acarya but does not have an attitude of servitorship to the Lord, he must be considered an offender, and this offensive attitude disqualifies him from being an acarya
