The Lord Personally Teaches Devotional Service
“He forgets Himself in the joy of that conception and teaches all living entities, “You are servants of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.””
What the purport teaches
- Devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead is so ecstatic that even the Lord Himself plays the part of a devotee.
- Forgetting Himself to be the Supreme, He personally teaches the whole world how to render service.
- In the joy of service, He teaches all living entities, “You are servants of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.”
