Mukti· LiberationThe Supreme Lord Protects His Devotee
“Because she was always absorbed in the thought of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, she was not aware that sometimes her hair was loosened or her garments were disarrayed.”
What the purport teaches
- Devahūti was so absorbed in the Supreme Personality of Godhead that she did not notice her loosened hair or disarrayed garments.
- When one surrenders to the Supreme Lord’s service, He takes charge of the devotee’s maintenance. The fully surrendered soul has no anxiety about bodily protection.
- The Supreme Lord maintains innumerable species of bodies. One who fully engages in His service will not go unprotected.
