TEXT 226

’nirgrantha hañā’—ei duṅhāra ‘viśeṣaṇa’

āra artha śuna, yaiche sādhura saṅgama

SYNONYMS

nirgrantha hañā—becoming nirgrantha; ei—this; duṅhāra—of both; viśeṣaṇa—the adjective; āra artha—another import; śuna—please hear; yaiche—in which; sādhura saṅgama—there is association with devotees.

TRANSLATION

“The word ‘nirgrantha’ can be taken as an adjective modifying ‘muni’ and ‘ātmārāma.’ There is another meaning, which you may hear from Me, indicating association with a devotee. Now I shall explain how it is that through the association of devotees, even a nirgrantha can become a devotee.
