TRANSLATION

They had all performed all the priciples of religiosities and as a result of this, rightly they decided that the lotus feet of Lord Sri Krishna is the Supreme goal of everytime and therefore they sustained within their mind uninterruptedly.


PURPORT

In the Bhagwat Geeta the Lord says (B.G. 7/28) that only those who have had done pious deeds in previous life and thus have become freed from the results of all impious acts can only concentrate upon the Lotus feet of the Supreme Lord Sri Krishna. The Pandavas not only in this life but also in their previous life, they had always performed the supreme pious work and as such they are ever-free from all the reactions of impious work. It is quite reasonable, therefore, that they concentrated their mind unto the lotus feet of the Supreme Lord Sri Krishna According to Sri Viswanath Chaktavarty Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha principles are accepted by persons who are not free from the results of impious action. Such persons affected with the contaminations of the above four principles cannot at once accept the lotus feet of the Lord of the spiritual sky. Vaikuntha world is situated far beyond the material sky. The material sky is under the management of Durga Devo or material energy of the Lord but the Vaikuntha world is managed by the Personal energy of the Lord. The cover-jacket of this book is an explanation of the Vaikuntha world and the material world.
