Live Caitanya Caritamrta · CC Madhya 5.113
Eternal Servants Never Forget the Lord
“After the marriage ceremony was performed, the Lord informed both brāhmaṇas, “You two brāhmaṇas are My eternal servants, birth after birth.””
What the purport teaches
- After the marriage ceremony, the Lord told both brāhmaṇas that they were His eternal servants, birth after birth.
- Like these two brāhmaṇas of Vidyānagara, many devotees are eternal servants of the Lord. They are called nitya-siddha, eternally perfect.
- Although nitya-siddhas appear in the material world and seem to be common members of it, they never forget the Supreme Personality of Godhead in any condition. This is the symptom of a nitya-siddha.
