TRANSLATION
1) Oh, my dear mind, you
are certainly most restless and flickering. You are not attracted by unalloyed devotees
of the Lord who are free from crooked complications, but instead you remain
strongly attached to the company of sly, hypocritical cheaters.
2) Those strange, deviant
imposters are considered by you to be sadhus, and you are dancing merrily in
their company. And those who have a cruel and hard-hearted nature are your most
worshipable objects of reverence. In great devotion you fall down at the feet
of such rascals.
3) The real result of
devotion fructifies for one who keeps the company of the true devotees of the
Lord in a peaceful mood devoid of cheating propensities. My dear mind, giving
up your unsteady flickering nature and abandoning the association of sly
deceitful cheaters in a far distant place, just worship the beautiful lotus
feet of Krsna.
