Traducción
Translation
¿Quiénes son esos devotos puros de que te hablo? En una reunión de devotos puros, nunca oirás hablar de temas materiales como política o sociología. Ellos solamente hablan de las cualidades, formas y pasatiempos de la Suprema Personalidad de Dios. Ponen toda su atención en adorarlo y alabarlo. Escuchando constantemente y con respeto esos temas en compañía de devotos puros, incluso una persona que desee fundirse en la existencia de la Verdad Absoluta abandona esa idea para, poco a poco, irse apegando al servicio de Vāsudeva.
Who are the pure devotees mentioned here? In an assembly of pure devotees, there is no question of discussing material subjects like politics and sociology. In an assembly of pure devotees, there is discussion only of the qualities, forms and pastimes of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. He is praised and worshiped with full attention. In the association of pure devotees, by constantly hearing such topics respectfully, even a person who wants to merge into the existence of the Absolute Truth abandons this idea and gradually becomes attached to the service of Vāsudeva.
