sakala jagate more kare vidhi-bhakti
vidhi-bhaktye vraja-bhava paite nahi sakti
aisvarya-jnanete saba jagat misrita
aisvarya-sithila-preme nahi mora prita
(CC 1.3.15-16)

“Everyone in this world worships Me through vidhi-bhakti. Vidhi-bhakti has no power for attaining the feelings of Vraja.
The devotion of the world is mixed with knowledge of My divine prowess. I do not delight in love deluted with prowess.”

“Sweetness is very difficult to attain through fruitive activities, austerity, yoga, intellectual speculation, vidhi-bhakti, recitation of mantras or meditation.
The sweetness of Sri Krishna is easily attainable only for the one who affectionately worships Him on the path of raga.”
