TRANSLATION

Arjuna's constant remembrances of the lotus feet of Lord Sri Krishna expanded his devotion with great velocity and as a result of this all trashes of his conception became subsided.


PURPORT

Material desires of the mind are trashes of material contamination. By such contaminations the living being is faced with so many compatible and incompatible things that upsurge the very existence of spiritual identity. Birth after birth the conditioned soul is entrapped with so many pleasing and non-pleasing elements which are all false and temporary. They accumulate on account of our reaction of material desires but when we get into touch with the transcendental Lord in His variegated energies by devotional service the naked forms of all material desires become manifest and the intelligence of the living being is pacified in its true colour. As soon as Arjuna turned his attention towards the instructions of the Lord as they are inculcated in the Bhagwat Geeta, his true colour of eternal association of the Lord became manifest and thus felt freed from all material contaminations.
