Anything that you may have desired to describe under separate vision apart from that of the Lord, will react in different forms and names and result in oscillating the mind like the boat disturbed by the wind which cannot have any place to rest.

Sri Vyasdeva is the editor of all descriptions of the Vedic literatures and as such he has described transcendental realisation in different ways namely the way of fruitive activities, the way of speculative knowledge, the way of mystic power and the way of devotional service. Besides that in his various Puranas he has recommended the worship of so many demigods in different forms and names. The result is that people in general are puzzled to fix up their mind in the service of the Lord; on the contrary they are always disturbed to find out the real path of self realisation. Srila Naradadeva is stressing on this particular defect of the Vedic literatures compiled by Vyasdeva and thus he is trying to emphasise on the point of concentrating in the matter of describing everything in relation with the Supreme Lord and nobody else. In fact there is nothing existent except the Lord. The Lord is manifested in different expansions. He is the root of the complete tree. He is the stomach of the complete body. As such pouring of water on the root is the right process to water the tree as much as feeding the stomach means to supply energy to all the parts of the body. As such Srila Vyasdeva should not have compiled any other Puranas than the Bhagwat Purana because a slight deviation from that may create havoc in the matter of self-realisation. A slight deviation can create such havoc and what to speak of deliberate expansion of the separatist idea from the Absolute Truth Personality of Godhead. The most defective part of worshipping other demigods, is that it creates a definite conception of pantheism ending disastrously by products of many religious sects detrimental to the progress of Bhagwat principles which alone can give the accurate direction for self realisation in eternal relation with the Personality of Godhead by devotional service in transcendental love. The example of the boat disturbed by whirling wind is just suitable in this respect and the diverted mind of the pantheist can never reach to the perfection of self realisation on account of disturbed condition of selection of object.

Whatever you desire to describe that is separate in vision from the Lord simply reacts, with different forms, names and results, to agitate the mind as the wind agitates a boat which has no resting place.
