Atyanta Sangrahe Yara Sada
One whose mind is always absorbed in excessive accumulation is called atyahari, devoid of devotion.
One whose mind hankers after the enjoyment of mundane things is known as prayasi, devoid of devotion.
One whose tongue abandons talk of Krishna to speak of other things is called prajalpi, one who speaks useless words.
Indifferent to devotional practice yet expert in fruitive activity, one who undertakes many grand schemes is the wretched niyamagrahi.
One devoted to the company of others rather than the company of Krishna's devotees, absorbed in the indulgence of bad sense enjoyment, is called jana-sangi.
One who wanders about in many places purely for his own selfish gain is given the name laulya-para, devoid of devotion.
These six can never be qualified for devotional service; devoid of devotion, fallen from the goal, they remain mere materialistic worldlings.
About Atyanta Sangrahe Yara Sada
A Bengali-Sanskrit song of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura that versifies Rupa Goswami's famous Upadeshamrita verse on the six faults that destroy devotional service -- naming and defining each: the atyahari who is absorbed in excessive accumulation, the prayasi who hankers after mundane enjoyment, the prajalpi who wastes his tongue on idle talk instead of Krishna-katha, the niyamagrahi who is expert in fruitive activity but indifferent to bhajana, the jana-sangi who keeps bad association, and the laulya-para who wanders about for his own selfish interest -- concluding that none of these six can ever be qualified for pure bhakti.
