Srimad-Bhagavatam Lectures

One who takes to Kṛṣṇa consciousness and falls down, for him, he says: "What is inauspicity there?" That means there is auspicity still, although he has fallen. And one who is sticking to his original occupational duty but does not take to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, what does he gain? This is the advice.

Nārada says: "It is all right." Bhajann apakvo. "While you are discharging your devotional service, even being immature you fall down, it doesn't matter even if you fall down." Bhajann apakvo 'tha. Apakva means nonmature. Patet tato yadi: he falls down from the path of devotional service. Yatra kva vā abhadram abhūd amuṣya kim: "What is the loss there?" And those who are sticking to their occupational duty . . . ko vārtha āpto 'bhajatāṁ sva-dharmataḥ, "If one, one sticks to his occupational duty, but he does not surrender to Kṛṣṇa, does not take to devo . . . what does he gain?"

Here, one who takes to Kṛṣṇa consciousness and falls down, for him, he says: "What is inauspicity there?" That means there is auspicity still, although he has fallen. And one who is sticking to his original occupational duty but does not take to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, what does he gain? This is the advice. What does he gain? "Oh, I am sticking to my own principles." What is your nonsense principle? After your death, after this body, all principle will be finished. That's all. And you could not take the opportunity of taking to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. So what is your gain? And this man who has taken to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, rejecting all so-called occupational duties and religious principles, he gains. There is no inauspicity because he had fallen.
