tatra svārthā –
aviruddhaiḥ sphuṭaṁ bhāvaiḥ puṣṇāty ātmānam eva yā |
viruddhair duḥkha-glāniḥ sā svārthā kathitā ratiḥ ||4||
That primary rati which clearly nourishes itself with non-contradictory bhāvas and becomes intolerably depressed with sorrow by contradictory bhāvas is called the svārtha-rati (nourishing itself).
Purport
When noncontradictory symptoms of ecstatic love are distinctly manifest, any contradictory symptoms create a sense of abomination. Contradictory ecstatic love is called selfish.
— A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda
