Material prowess
Srimad-Bhagavatam
SB Canto 4
It is therefore advised that the princely order not exhibit its material prowess before the brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas and should avoid offending them
SB 4.21.37, Translation: The brāhmaṇas and Vaiṣṇavas are personally glorified by their characteristic powers of tolerance, penance, knowledge and education. By dint of all these spiritual assets, Vaiṣṇavas are more powerful than royalty. It is therefore advised that the princely order not exhibit its material prowess before these two communities and should avoid offending them.
