I do not fear living in hellish life, falling from my position, being bound by the ropes of Varuṇa, suffering unbearable calamity, suffering difficulties arising from loss of all possessions, or being punished by you--as much as I fear defamation by the devotees. “Do you want to get free of Varuṇa’s ropes and hell?” Artha-kṛcchrāt means “fear of the difficult due to loss of assets.” I fear the criticism of devotees with words like “The devotees like Bali cheat brāhmaṇas.”
