PURPORT
Arjavam-simplicity or freedom from duplicity-is a qualification of a brahmana and a Vaisnava. A Vaisnava automatically acquires all the qualities of a brahmana.
yasyasti bhaktir bhagavaty akincana
sarvair gunais tatra samasate surah
(Bhag. 5.18.12)
A Vaisnava should possess the brahminical qualities such as satya, sama, dama, titiksa and arjava. There cannot be any duplicity in the character of a Vaisnava. When Bali Maharaja acted with unflinching faith and devotion unto the lotus feet of Lord Visnu, this was very much appreciated by all the residents of the higher planetary system.
