TEXT

এত বলি' গেলা প্রভু করিতে গঙ্গাস্নান ।
সেই পাপী দুঃখ ভোগে, না যায় পরাণ ॥ ৫৪ ॥

eta bali' gela prabhu karite gaṅga-snana

sei papi duhkha bhoge, na yaya parana

SYNONYMS

eta bali'-saying this; gela-went away; prabhu-the Lord; karite-to take; gaṅga-snana-a bath in the Ganges; sei-that; papi-sinful man; duhkha-pains; bhoge-suffers; na-not; yaya-go away; parana-the life.

TRANSLATION

After saying this, the Lord left to take His bath in the Ganges, and that sinful man did not give up his life but continued to suffer.

PURPORT

It appears that an offender to a Vaisnava continues to suffer and does not give up his life. We have actually seen that a great vaisnava-aparadhi is continuously suffering so much that it is difficult for him to move, and yet he does not die.
