Śrī Caitanya Caritamrta · Text Madhya 19.156
যদি বৈষ্ণব-অপরাধ উঠে হাতী মাতা ।
উপাড়ে বা ছিণ্ডে, তার শুখি’ যায় পাতা ॥ ১৫৬ ॥
yadi vaiṣṇava-aparādha uṭhe hātī mātā
upāḍe vā chiṇḍe, tāra śukhi’ yāya pātā
Translation
“If the devotee commits an offense at the feet of a Vaiṣṇava while cultivating the creeper of devotional service in the material world, his offense is compared to a mad elephant that uproots the creeper and breaks it. In this way the leaves of the creeper are dried up.
