येनाकेनप्रकारेण क्षुद्वयाधिश्च निवर्त्यताम्  

कृष्णनामजपेनैव क्रियतां कालयापनम्

 

यदृच्छालाभसन्तुष्टाः केचिन्माधुकरान्विताः

साधवोsर्थविरक्ताश्च वसन्ति यतयो वने

 

शिलोञ्छवृत्या तुष्यन्ति वैष्णवा गृहमेधिनः

तेषामनन्यभक्तानां योगक्षेमवहो हरिः  

 

तस्मादर्थपरं जन्म भगवद्भक्तिनाशनम्

उपेक्षन्ते भागवता लोकवेदपरा हि ते

 

One should try to satisfy his hunger somehow and engage in the chanting of the Divine Name of Shri Krishna. Satisfied with whatever they get providentially and through alms, the saints neglect wealth and perform austerity in the forest. The Vaishnavas lead the life of householders accepting alms. Shri Bhagavan takes up on His shoulders the responsibility of their maintenance. Those Bhagavatas who have lost all consideration for the precepts of the Vedas and the opinion of the common people, hate that life which has the only aim of amassing wealth that destroys devotion.
