Verse Text

sarvathaiva durūho ’yam abhaktair bhagavad-rasaḥ | tat-pādāmbuja-sarvasvair bhaktair evānurasyate ||131||

Translation

Rasa directed to the Lord is very difficult to understand for those with no devotion. Those who have dedicated themselves to the lotus feet of Bhagavān can taste bhakti-rasa.

Purport (Jiva Goswami)

Bhakti-rasa can be tasted by the bhāvya and bhāvaka devotees and not by the previously mentioned knowers of rasa who have no taste (prājṣas).

Purport (Nectar of Devotion)

Those who are not devotees can never achieve the benefits of devotional service. For them the subject of devotional service is always very difficult to understand. Only persons who have dedicated their lives unto the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead can relish the real nectar of devotion.
