Topic : Surrender
What are the resolutions of a fixed devotee ?
The six symptoms of devotional surrender are
1. the acceptance of things favourable to devotional service
2. the rejection of unfavourable things 3. the conviction that Krishna will give protection 4. the acceptance of the Lord as one’s guardian or master 5. full self-surrender 6. humility
- Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakur
- Bhajana Rahasya, Chapter – 3, as quoted in
- Page 54 of ‘Bhaktivinoda Vani Vaibhva’.

Topic : Devotional service
What is 'service' SEVA ?
Service is not a function of the body or mind but of the spirit soul. There is no business or trade in service. For the service to be actually
devotional, it must be intended simply for Krishna’s pleasure. One’s service should contain nothing motivated by a desire for one’s own
happiness. Devotional service is unmotivated, causeless, and the uninterrupted propensity of the spirit soul. One cannot understand the ultimate goal of knowledge unless he engages in unalloyed service to guru. Only the Lord’s devotee is eligible to become a spiritual master.
This is not an exaggeration but a fact. Lord Krishna states, “As they surrender unto me I reward them accordingly.”
- His Divine Grace Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakur
(Page No.89 of ‘Amrta Vani’)
