Devotional service is simple and easy because Krishna personally delivers His devotees
aOnly way to appreciate Supreme Personality of Godhead — Devotional Service
bFortunate position of devotee- delivered by the Lord very soon
cRealization in pure devotional service
Individual soul is subordinate to Him – duty is to render service to the Lord
If not serve the Lord – you will render service to Maya
Mind – Completely fixed in devotion to Supreme Personality of Godhead
Standard of devotional service – One can do any work but work only for Krishna
Desire – Life’s only mission and desire is satisfaction of the Lord
e.g. Arjuna in battle – Can sacrifice all for Krishna’s satisfaction
eProcess is simple — Just devote to your occupation and chant Hare Krishna – Thus attracts Supreme Personality of Godhead
fPromise — Without delay, Lord will deliver the devotee from material ocean (Yogis have to personally endeavor to go to other planets)
Ref. Varaha Purana – Devotee’s do not need Astanga-yoga
Lord takes responsibility like – Analogy: Child taken care by parents
Comes on Garuda to pick from the ocean – Analogy: Expert swimmer also needs help to be picked up from the ocean
gSign of intelligence — To always prefer devotional service compared to other paths
hSpecific benediction of devotional service — Ref. Narayaniya –
No need to perform fruitive acts or mental speculation
Attains all benefits of yogic processes, rituals, sacrifices, just by devotional service
iConclusion of Bhagavad-gita — Simply Chant Hare Krishna and go to the Supreme destination easily and happily (Ref. Bg. 18.66 – “sarva dharman…”)
Highest Perfection of Life – Take shelter of the Supreme Omnipotent Godhead, Krishna
