However, Śrīla Prabhupāda repeatedly clarifies that when the Vedas describe the Lord as aguṇa, it means He has no material qualities born of the modes of nature (goodness, passion, and ignorance). Instead, He possesses an unlimited ocean of transcendental, spiritual qualities. These qualities are so vast and inconceivable that even Lord Śeṣanāga, who has been describing the Lord's glories with thousands of mouths since time immemorial, cannot reach their limit. </ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-deleted"></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div> </div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-deleted"></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">Because the Lord's attributes are infinitely glorious, the ultimate perfection of human life is to glorify them. The perfection of education is not the accumulation of mundane facts, but the ability to describe the greatness of the Lord. Similarly, the highest perfection of the tongue is to vibrate descriptions of His transcendental qualities. Pure devotees and great sages like Śukadeva Gosvāmī and Prahlāda Mahārāja dedicate their lives to this very purpose, relishing transcendental bliss through such descriptions. Conversely, those who stubbornly refuse to use their tongues to describe the Supreme Lord are considered less than human and are destined to face the severe punishment of Yamarāja, the lord of death.</ins></div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-deleted"></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div> </div></td></tr> <tr><td colspan="2" class="diff-side-deleted"></td><td class="diff-marker" data-marker="+"></td><td style="color: #202122; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div><ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">To realize these divine qualities, one must adopt the authorized process of devotional service.

After receiving these messages, one must memorize and repeat them (kīrtanam). </ins>This <ins style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">combined process of hearing and describing acts as a powerful purifying agent.
