FORKLARING: En person, der er født i en særlig retskaffen, aristokratisk eller hellig familie, bliver bevidst om de gode betingelser, han har for at praktisere yoga. Derfor begynder han beslutsomt at gøre sin uafsluttede opgave færdig, og således renser han sig helt for al materiel besmittelse. Når han endelig er blevet fri for enhver besmittelse, opnår han den højeste fuldkommenhed – Kṛṣṇa-bevidsthed. Kṛṣṇa-bevidsthed er det perfekte stadie af frihed fra al forurening. Dette bekræftes i Bhagavad-gītā (7.28):

A person born in a particularly righteous, aristocratic or sacred family becomes conscious of his favorable condition for executing yoga practice. With determination, therefore, he begins his unfinished task, and thus he completely cleanses himself of all material contaminations. When he is finally free from all contaminations, he attains the supreme perfection – Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Kṛṣṇa consciousness is the perfect stage of being freed of all contaminations. This is confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā (7.28):

yeṣāṁ tv anta-gataṁ pāpaṁ
janānāṁ puṇya-karmaṇām
te dvandva-moha-nirmuktā
bhajante māṁ dṛḍha-vratāḥ

“Når man efter at have udført fromme handlinger i mange, mange liv er blevet helt fri for enhver forurening og alle illusoriske dualiteter, bliver man engageret i Herrens transcendentale kærlighedstjeneste.”

“After many, many births of executing pious activities, when one is completely freed from all contaminations, and from all illusory dualities, one becomes engaged in the transcendental loving service of the Lord.”
