One who is attached to dry speculative knowledge has no relationship with Kṛṣṇa. His occupation is criticizing Vaiṣṇavas. Thus he is situated in criticism.
ÅšrÄ«la BhaktisiddhÄnta SarasvatÄ« ṬhÄkura has explained in his AnubhÄá¹£ya that the word nirbandha indicates that RÄmacandra PurÄ« had a steady desire to criticize others. Impersonalist MÄyÄvÄdÄ«s, who have no relationship with Kṛṣṇa, who cannot take to devotional service, and who simply engage in material arguments to understand Brahman, regard devotional service to Kṛṣṇa as karma-kÄṇá¸a, or fruitive activities. According to them, devotional service to Kṛṣṇa is but another means for attaining dharma, artha, kÄma and moká¹£a. Therefore they criticize the devotees for engaging in material activities. They think that devotional service is mÄyÄ and that Kṛṣṇa or Viṣṇu is also mÄyÄ. Therefore they are called MÄyÄvÄdÄ«s. Such a mentality awakens in a person who is an offender to Kṛṣṇa and His devotees.
