The significant parts are:
1. jiivAbhedA - to consider there to exist intrinsic abheda between jîva(s) and the Lord.
2. nirguNatvaM - to consider the Lord as attributeless.
3. apUrNaguNatA - to consider the Lord as having limited attributes (quality and/or quantity).
4. sAmya - to consider oneself or some other entity to be equal to Him
5. AdhikyaM tadanyeshhAM - to consider onself or some other entity to be superior to the Lord.
6. bhedastadgataeva cha - To consider His incarnations to be different from Him (or from each other) in worth, value, etc.
7. prAdurbhAvaviparyAsaH - To consider the Lord as being born like ordinary mortals during His incarnations.
8. tadbhaktadveshha - To hate His devotees.
9. tatpramANa ni.ndAM cha - To condemn/hate the primordial pramANa-s (Shruti, etc.)
Considering the Lord non-different from soul(s), and considering Him to be of incomplete qualities; considering someone other than He to be equal to, or superior than, Him, and considering He Himself to have inherent difference within Himself (as in considering different forms of Him to be different from each other, etc.); to say that He suffers the sorrows of birth, etc., in His incarnations; to hate His devotee(s); to criticize or hate the authorities regarding the Lord; these are all the flaws possible (in devotion)
-- devotion that is devoid of these, is called bhakti.
