śuni' bhakta-gaṇe kahe sa-krodha vacane
kṛṣṇa-nÄma-guṇa chÄá¸i, ki kara kÄ«rtane

 Å›uni' - hearing this; bhakta-gaṇe - to all the devotees; kahe - the Lord says; sa-krodha vacane - talking in an angry mood; kṛṣṇa-nÄma-guṇa chÄá¸i - leaving aside the transcendental qualities and the name of the Lord; ki kara kÄ«rtane - what kind of chanting are you performing.


Text
