<div class="heading">In the Nṛsiṁha Purāṇa it is stated that even if one fully engaged in the devotional service of the Lord is sometimes found engaged in abominable activities, these activities should be considered to be like the spots that resemble the mark of a rabbit on the moon.<br />

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:BG 9.30|BG 9.30, Purport]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="purport text"><p style="display: inline;">The words sādhur eva, "he is saintly," are very emphatic. They are a warning to the nondevotees that because of an accidental falldown a devotee should not be derided; he should still be considered saintly even if he has accidentally fallen down. And the word mantavyaḥ is still more emphatic. If one does not follow this rule, and derides a devotee for his accidental falldown, then one is disobeying the order of the Supreme Lord. The only qualification of a devotee is to be unflinchingly and exclusively engaged in devotional service.</p><br />
<p>In the Nṛsiṁha Purāṇa the following statement is given:</p><br />
:bhagavati ca harāv ananya-cetā<br />
:bhṛśa-malino 'pi virājate manuṣyaḥ<br />
:na hi śaśa-kaluṣa-cchabiḥ kadācit<br />
:timira-parābhavatām upaiti candraḥ<br />
<p>The meaning is that even if one fully engaged in the devotional service of the Lord is sometimes found engaged in abominable activities, these activities should be considered to be like the spots that resemble the mark of a rabbit on the moon. Such spots do not become an impediment to the diffusion of moonlight. Similarly, the accidental falldown of a devotee from the path of saintly character does not make him abominable.</p><br />
