One should never associate with materialists, those dedicated to gratifying their genitals and bellies. By following them one falls into the deepest pit of darkness, just like a blind man who follows another blind man.
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya
Translation
One should never associate with materialists, who are dedicated to gratifying their genitals and bellies. By following even one such person, one falls into the deepest pit of darkness, just like a blind man who follows another blind man. Being in this condition, he should not associate with materialists. Nothing is as dangerous as that. The qualities of the materialist are described. He takes pleasure in sex and eating. What to speak of associating with many such people, even association with one of them causes fall down.
