Naiṣkarmyam apy acyuta-bhāva-varjitaṁ na śobhate jñānam alaṁ nirañjanam. Kutaḥ punaḥ śaśvad abhadram īśvare na cārpitaṁ karma yad apy akāraṇam. (SB 1.5.12)

This is one of the points that Nārada makes to Vyāsadeva: "Okay, you've talked about 'naiṣkarmyam' - that okay, here's how you escape the material world and the obligations to work according to karma. 'Naiṣkarmyam apy acyuta-bhāva-varjitaṁ na śobhate jñānam alaṁ nirañjanam.' Nirañjanam - you may also have this conception of that you're not your body and so forth, he said, but that's not perfect, because it's not beautiful, and unless it's beautiful by being connected to acyuta-bhāva - meaning that you have love for Kṛṣṇa—then whatever level of so-called completeness that you've achieved, 'Ye ’nye ’ravindākṣa vimukta-māninas tvayy asta-bhāvād aviśuddha-buddhayaḥ āruhya kṛcchreṇa paraṁ padaṁ tataḥ patanty adho ’nādṛta-yuṣmad-aṅghrayaḥ' (SB 10.2.32) - by the standard of the Srimad Bhagatam, by other people's standard, it may be complete, but Bhāgvatam says, not perfect. And if it's not perfect, it's not going to hold because the soul wants perfect, and the only way to get that is to get Kṛṣṇa.
