Significado

In this and the following six verses, the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam criticizes persons who are too materially attached. It is enjoined in the Vedic scriptures that those who are attached to the enjoyment of material facilities have to sacrifice and undergo certain ritualistic performances. They have to observe certain rules and regulations in their daily lives to be elevated to the heavenly planets. It is stated in this verse that such persons cannot be liberated at any time. Those who worship demigods with the consciousness that each and every demigod is a separate God cannot be elevated to the spiritual world, what to speak of persons who are simply attached to duties for the upliftment of their material condition.

En este verso y en los seis siguientes, el Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam critica a las personas demasiado apegadas a lo material. En las Escrituras védicas se ordena que los que están apegados al disfrute de comodidades materiales tienen que hacer sacrificios y emprender determinadas ejecuciones rituales. A fin de elevarse a los planetas celestiales, tienen que observar ciertas reglas y regulaciones en la vida diaria. En este verso se afirma que esas personas nunca se pueden liberar. Los que adoran a los semidioses pensando que cada uno de ellos es un Dios independiente no pueden elevarse al mundo espiritual, y mucho menos las personas que simplemente están apegadas a ciertos deberes con la idea de mejorar sus condiciones materiales.
