Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada

"Just like in this our experience, a first-class brāhmaṇa, he is supposed a first-class man. But still there is contamination. At least this contamination is there: 'Oh, I am a brāhmaṇa. I am brāhmaṇa. I am bigger..., I am greater than all others. I am learned, and I know all the Vedas. I know what is what. I understand Brahman.' Because brahma jānātīti brāhmaṇaḥ, so he knows. So all these qualities, first-class brāhmaṇa, but still he is contaminated, because he is proud: 'I am this. I am this.' That is material identification."

If they are so much advanced, why they cannot? Spṛṣṭa-māyāḥ: "They are also contaminated by māyā." Spṛṣṭa-māyāḥ. Sattva-pradhānāḥ: "Their position in the platform of goodness, on the quality of goodness, that is very prominent, but they are not free from the contamination." Just like in this our experience, a first-class brāhmaṇa, he is supposed a first-class man. But still there is contamination. At least this contamination is there: "Oh, I am a brāhmaṇa.
