Comentário

According to the ācāryas, low-class people such as the pulindas ate the fruits of the palm trees, but Kṛṣṇa’s cowherd boyfriends considered them undesirable, since they had been tainted with the blood of the asses.

SIGNIFICADO—Segundo os ācāryas, homens de classe baixa, como os pulindas, comeram as frutas das palmeiras, mas os vaqueirinhos amigos de Kṛṣṇa consideravam-nas indesejáveis, pois foram contaminadas com o sangue dos asnos.
