Glories of Devotional Service

 


Transcendental service to the Lord is not mundane. The service attitude of the devotee gradually increases and never becomes slackened. Generally, in old age a person is allowed retirement from mundane service. But in the transcendental service of the Lord there is no retirement at all; on the contrary, the service attitude increases more and more with the progress of age. In the transcendental service there is no satiation, and therefore there is no retirement. Materially, when a man becomes tired by rendering service in his physical body, he is allowed retirement, but in the transcendental service there is no feeling of fatigue because it is spiritual service and is not on the bodily plane. Service on the bodily plane dwindles as the body grows older, but the spirit is never old, and therefore on the spiritual plane the service is never tiresome.

Uddhava undoubtedly became old, but that does not mean that his spirit became old. His service attitude matured on the transcendental plane, and therefore as soon as he was questioned by Vidura about Lord Kแน›แนฃแน‡a, he at once remembered his Lord by reference to the context and forgot himself on the physical plane.

Mercy of Rฤdhฤrฤแน‡ฤซ




Lord ลšrฤซ Kแน›แนฃแน‡a is the property of His pure unconditional devotees, and as such only the devotees can deliver Kแน›แนฃแน‡a to another devotee; Kแน›แนฃแน‡a is never obtainable directly. Lord Caitanya therefore designated Himself as gopฤซ-bhartuแธฅ pada-kamalayor dฤsa-dฤsฤnudฤsaแธฅ (CC Madhya 13.80), or "the most obedient servant of the servants of the Lord, who maintains the gopฤซ damsels at Vแน›ndฤvana." A pure devotee therefore never approaches the Lord directly, but tries to please the servant of the Lord's servants, and thus the Lord becomes pleased, and only then can the devotee relish the taste of the tulasฤซ leaves stuck to His lotus feet. In the Brahma-saแนhitฤ it is said that the Lord is never to be found by becoming a great scholar of the Vedic literatures, but He is very easily approachable through His pure devotee. In Vแน›ndฤvana all the pure devotees pray for the mercy of ลšrฤซmatฤซ Rฤdhฤrฤแน‡ฤซ, the pleasure potency of Lord Kแน›แนฃแน‡a. ลšrฤซmatฤซ Rฤdhฤrฤแน‡ฤซ is a tenderhearted feminine counterpart of the supreme whole, resembling the perfectional stage of the worldly feminine nature. Therefore, the mercy of Rฤdhฤrฤแน‡ฤซ is available very readily to the sincere devotees, and once She recommends such a devotee to Lord Kแน›แนฃแน‡a, the Lord at once accepts the devotee's admittance into His association. The conclusion is, therefore, that one should be more serious about seeking the mercy of the devotee than that of the Lord directly, and by one's doing so (by the good will of the devotee) the natural attraction for the service of the Lord will be revived.
