Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 4 - Chapter 1 - Verse 46


Sanskrit:

न वै सतां त्वच्चरणार्पितात्मनांभूतेषु सर्वेष्वभिपश्यतां तव ।भूतानि चात्मन्यपृथग्दिद‍ृक्षतांप्रायेण रोषोऽभिभवेद्यथा पशुम् ॥ ४६ ॥

ITRANS:

na vai satāṁ tvac-caraṇārpitātmanāṁbhūteṣu sarveṣv abhipaśyatāṁ tavabhūtāni cātmany apṛthag-didṛkṣatāṁprāyeṇa roṣo ’bhibhaved yathā paśum

Translation:

My dear Lord, devotees who have fully dedicated their lives unto your lotus feet certainly observe your presence as Paramātmā in each and every being, and as such they do not differentiate between one living being and another. Such persons treat all living entities equally. They never become overwhelmed by anger like animals, who can see nothing without differentiation.

Purport:

When the Supreme Personality of Godhead becomes angry or kills a demon, materially this may appear unfavorable, but spiritually it is a blissful blessing upon him. Therefore pure devotees do not make any distinction between the Lord’s anger and His blessings. They see both with reference to the Lord’s behavior with others and themselves. A devotee does not find fault with the behavior of the Lord in any circumstances.
