Taste One Drop of Devotional Service
“The ocean of the transcendental mellows of devotional service is so big that no one can estimate its length and breadth. However, just to help you taste it, I am describing but one drop.
What the purport teaches
- The transcendental mellows of devotional service are compared to a vast ocean.
- No one can estimate the length and breadth of this ocean.
- Even the description of one drop is offered to help the listener taste it.
Try this today
Read the translation slowly today, pausing to reflect on the image of one drop from an immeasurable ocean.
Ask yourself
Can I approach this teaching with a willingness to taste one drop rather than grasp everything?
Carry the question through the day, then answer it in your own words before sleep.
