Live Caitanya Caritamrta · CC Madhya 24.91
Intelligence Turns One Toward Kṛṣṇa
“The meaning of the word ‘udāra-dhī’ is buddhimān — intelligent or considerate. Because of this, even for one’s own sense gratification one engages in the devotional service of Lord Kṛṣṇa.
What the purport teaches
- The word udāra-dhī means buddhimān—intelligent or considerate.
- An intelligent person engages in the devotional service of Lord Kṛṣṇa.
- Even someone seeking personal sense gratification can turn to devotional service. Material desires need not prevent one from beginning.
