Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 8 - Chapter 1 - Verse 9
Sanskrit:
न वयं मन्यमानानामात्मानं तत्र साधनम् ।गिरो व: साधुशोच्यानां गृह्णीमो मर्मताडना: ॥ ९ ॥
ITRANS:
na vayaṁ manyamānānāmātmānaṁ tatra sādhanamgiro vaḥ sādhu-śocyānāṁgṛhṇīmo marma-tāḍanāḥ
Translation:
You demigods think that your own selves are the cause of your attaining fame and victory. Because of your ignorance, saintly persons feel sorry for you. Therefore, although your words afflict the heart, we do not accept them.
