I shall be celebrated as a writer.” These are material desires. One should attempt to write for self-purification. It may be published or it may not be published, but that does not matter. If one is actually sincere in writing, all his ambitions will be fulfilled.&lt;/span&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;span class=&quot;CC-statistics&quot;&gt;&#039;&#039;&#039;[[Vanisource:CC Adi 10.11|CC Adi 10.11, Purport]]:&#039;&#039;&#039; “Those whose minds are distorted by material desires surrender unto demigods.” Unfortunately, those who do not cultivate Kṛṣṇa consciousness and do not properly understand the Vedic knowledge accept any rascal to be an incarnation of God, and they are of the opinion that one can become an incarnation simply by worshiping a demigod.&lt;/span&gt;</div>
