{{VaniQuotebox|A person who goes to the temple of the Lord and worships with great devotion, but who does not show sympathy to people in general or show respect to other devotees, is considered to be a third-class devotee|It is also said that a person who goes to the temple of the Lord and worships with great devotion, but who does not show sympathy to people in general or show respect to other devotees, is considered to be a third-class devotee. The second-class devotee is he who is merciful and compassionate to the fallen soul. The second-class devotee is always cognizant of his position as an eternal servant of the Lord; he therefore makes friendships with devotees of the Lord, acts compassionately toward the general public in teaching them devotional service, and refuses to cooperate or associate with nondevotees. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 3.21.31&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;}}&lt;br /&gt;

{{VaniQuotebox|Genuinely purified souls actually control all their sensory activities and also master their true, spiritual self. Such spiritualized persons alone can show actual sympathy to the fallen in terms of the individual, the place, and the time| genuinely purified souls actually control all their sensory activities and also master their true, spiritual self. Such spiritualized persons alone can show actual sympathy to the fallen in terms of the individual, the place, and the time. And in spite of performing apparently material activities, such spiritualized persons are free from the bondage of work. This process is explained in the seventh verse of the fifth chapter of Bhagavad-gītā: &amp;quot;Householders who perform their work with a view to transcendental results, out of sympathy for all others, are really eligible to become public leaders. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;(Message of Godhead, Chapter 2)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;}}&lt;br /&gt;

{{VaniQuotebox|He has advanced so much, and I could not do so.&amp;quot; This is material civilization. Envious, grhamedhi. Everyone is envious. Either you take person to person or neighbor to neighbor, their sympathy is lip sympathy|This is material civilization. Envious, gṛhamedhī. Everyone is envious. Either you take person to person or neighbor to neighbor, their sympathy is lip sympathy. Actually, everyone is envious. Businessman to businessman, nation to nation. This is material world. Therefore spiritual advancement means for person who is not envious. Not envious. Paramo nirmatsarāṇāṁ satāṁ vastavya-vastu vedyam (SB 1.1.2). In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam it is said that if you want to know the real truth, vastavya-vastu, the one must become paramo nirmatsaram. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;(Bhagavad-gītā Lecture, 2.1 -- Ahmedabad, December 6, 1972)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;}}&lt;br /&gt;

{{VaniQuotebox|If one does not know of the material sufferings of fallen souls and becomes sympathetic because of bodily comforts, as in the case of Bharata Maharaja, such sympathy or compassion is the cause of one&amp;#039;s downfall| if one does not know of the material sufferings of fallen souls and becomes sympathetic because of bodily comforts, as in the case of Bharata Mahārāja, such sympathy or compassion is the cause of one&amp;#039;s downfall. If one is actually sympathetic to fallen, suffering humanity, he should try to elevate people from material consciousness to spiritual consciousness. As far as the deer was concerned, Bharata Mahārāja became very sympathetic, but he forgot that it was impossible for him to elevate a deer to spiritual consciousness, because, after all, a deer is but an animal. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 5.8.9)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;}}&lt;br /&gt;

{{VaniQuotebox|If, instead of treating the people&amp;#039;s inherent disease - atheism - the leaders simply show a superficial sympathy for the disease&amp;#039;s symptoms, certainly there will be no benefit whatsoever for suffering humanity|So if, instead of treating the people&amp;#039;s inherent disease—atheism—the leaders simply show a superficial sympathy for the disease&amp;#039;s symptoms, certainly there will be no benefit whatsoever for suffering humanity. The real remedy for this disease lies in partaking of the remnants of offerings made to Godhead; this is the ideal diet for the spiritual patient. And the medicines include hearing and chanting and remembering the glories of Godhead, worshiping the transcendental form of Godhead, offering Him transcendental service, accepting Him as one&amp;#039;s supreme friend and, lastly, surrendering unto Him in all circumstances. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;(Message of Godhead, Chapter 2)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;}}&lt;br /&gt;

Devotees are not liable to punishment by Yamarāja, but persons who have no information of Kṛṣṇa consciousness cannot be protected by their material life of so-called family enjoyment. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 6.3.28)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;}}&lt;br /&gt;

{{VaniQuotebox|Those who are not Vaisnavas consider only human society worthy of their sympathy, but Krsna claims to be the supreme father of all life forms. Consequently the Vaisnava takes care not to annihilate untimely or unnecessarily any life form|Those who are not Vaiṣṇavas consider only human society worthy of their sympathy, but Kṛṣṇa claims to be the supreme father of all life forms. Consequently the Vaiṣṇava takes care not to annihilate untimely or unnecessarily any life form. All living entities have to fulfill a certain duration for being encaged in a particular type of material body. They have to finish the duration allotted a particular body before being promoted or evolved to another body. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 5.10.2)&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;}}&lt;br /&gt;
