Devotional Service
Whatever devotional service we may have, we do it for seeking the shelter of the Lord, not for our mental or physical enjoyment.
Devotional Service
As soon as the body is finished, all material achievements are also finished. No one takes with him anything he has achived materially in this world. The only thing he can carry with him is his asset of devotional service; that alone is "never vanquished".
Benefits of Rendering Devotional Service
By rendering devotional service unto the Personality of Godhead, Sri Krishna, one immediately acquires causeless knowledge and detachment from the world.
Crying of Children
The child cries to have toys, but one who can cry for the Lord in love is certainly successful in the line of devotional service.
The Chief Function of The Living Entity
Devotional service to Krishna is the chief function of the living entity. There are different methods for the liberation of the conditioned soul Karma, jnana, yoga and Bhakti but all are dependent on bhakti. — Sri Caitanya Caritamrita, Madhya lila, 22.17.
A Fortunate Living Entity
Out of many millions of wandering living entities, one who is very fortunate gets an opportunity to associate with a bonafide spiritual master by the grace of Krishna. By the mercy of both Krishna and the spiritual masters, such a person receives the seed of the creeper of devotional service.
