Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 10 - Chapter 1 - Verse 11


Sanskrit:

अतो मां सुदुराराध्यं हित्वान्यान् भजते जन: ।ततस्त आशुतोषेभ्यो लब्धराज्यश्रियोद्धता: ।मत्ता: प्रमत्ता वरदान् विस्मयन्त्यवजानते ॥ ११ ॥

ITRANS:

ato māṁ su-durārādhyaṁhitvānyān bhajate janaḥtatas ta āśu-toṣebhyolabdha-rājya-śriyoddhatāḥmattāḥ pramattā vara-dānvismayanty avajānate

Translation:

Because I am difficult to worship, people generally avoid Me and instead worship other deities, who are quickly satisfied. When people receive kingly opulences from these deities, they become arrogant, intoxicated with pride and neglectful of their duties. They dare to offend even the demigods who have bestowed benedictions upon them.
