- If one does not immediately leave upon hearing the Lord or the Lord’s devotee blasphemed, he falls down from devotional service
- In this way (saying that God has no eyes, no legs, no hands), they are indirectly insulting God. This is blasphemy. God does not want to hear such nonsense
- It should be noted herewith (in SB 4.6.47) that a Vaisnava should not tolerate the blaspheming of Visnu or Vaisnavas, although he should tolerate personal insults to himself
