O foolish teacher.
O unqualified, most heinous son of a brāhmaṇa, you have disobeyed my order and taken shelter of the party of my enemies. You have taught this poor boy about devotional service! What is this nonsense?
Purport
In this verse the word asāram, meaning, “having no substance,” is significant. For a demon there is no substance in the process of devotional service, but to a devotee devotional service is the only essential factor in life. Since Hiraṇyakaśipu did not like devotional service, the essence of life, he chastised Prahlāda Mahārāja’s teachers with harsh words.

Translation
O unqualified brāhmaṇa! Fool! What is this? Disrespecting me, you have deceptively taken shelter of the enemy, and taught nonsense to the boy.
Te should be tvayā (by you). You have taught something which has no worth (asāram). However the other meaning is “you have taught something which has no comparison.”
