It is very much regrettable that unfortunate people do not discuss the description of the Vaikuntha planes but engage in topics which are unworthy to hear and which bewilder one’s intelligence. Those who give up the topics of Vaikuntha and take to talk of the material world are thrown into the darkest region of ignorance.
