NOTE. Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī quotes the Padma Purāṇa in his Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu 1.2.115 to explain that those seeking love of Godhead should not be overcome by lamentation and other worldly emotions:

śokāmarṣādibhir bhāvair ākrāntaṁ yasya mānasam
kathaṁ tatra mukundasya sphūrti-sambhāvanā bhavet

 “How it is possible for Mukunda to appear in the mind of a person afflicted with lamentation, anger, or other emotions?”

Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura has explained this verse in his Bhakty-āloka (10) as follows:

gṛhīdigera strī-putrādi vinaṣṭa haile baḍa śoka haya. kintu, bhakti-sādhakera sei sei avasthāya ghaṭanākrame upasthita-śoka adhikakṣaṇa thākā ucita naya. tānhādera alpa-kālera madhye śoka parityāga kariyā kṛṣṇānuśīlane niyukta haoyā kartavya. gṛha-tyāgīra kanthā, kamaṇḍalu vā bhikṣā-dravya nā thākile vā kona paśu vā manuṣya-kartṛka hṛta haile tāhāte śoka karā ucita naya. śoka, krodha prabhṛti samasta vegakei vaiṣṇava-sādhaka parityāga karibena; na tu vā nirantara kṛṣṇa-smṛtira viśeṣa vyāghāta haibe.

“Householders lament if they lose their wife, children, etc. But a practitioner of devotional service should not be in such a state of circumstantial lamentation for long. They should quickly give up their lamentation and engage in the cultivation of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. A renunciate should not lament if he does not possess a quilt, a waterpot, or other alms, or if these things are stolen by an animal or man. A practicing Vaiṣṇava should give up all urges like lamentation and anger, otherwise there will be great obstacles in his constant remembrance of Kṛṣṇa.”
