advancing toward the perfectional platform ( sādhaka ). The  sādhakas  are gradually becoming free from fruitive reaction.  Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu  (1.1.17) describes the symptoms of  bhakti-yoga  thus:
kleśa-ghnī śubhadā mokṣa-laghutākṛt sudurlabhā sāndrānanda-viśeṣātmā śrī-kṛṣṇākarsinī ca ṣā
Devotional service is  kleśa-ghnī  even for beginners. This means that it reduces or nullifies all kinds of suffering. The word  śubhadā  indicates that devotional service bestows all good fortune, and the words  kṛṣṇa-ākarṣiṇī  indicate that devotional service gradually attracts Kṛṣṇa toward the devotee. Consequently a devotee is not subject to any sinful reaction. In  Bhagavad-gītā  (18.66) Kṛṣṇa says:
sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja ahaṁ tvāṁ sarva-pāpebhyo mokṣayiṣyāmi mā śucaḥ
“Abandon all varieties of religion and just surrender unto Me. I shall deliver you from all sinful reaction. Do not fear.”
Thus a fully surrendered, sincere devotee immediately receives relief from all kinds of sinful reaction. There are three stages of fructification for sinful activity. At one stage, one commits the sinful act. Before that, the seed of this act exists, and before that there is ignorance whereby one commits the sin. Suffering is involved in all three stages. However, Kṛṣṇa is merciful to His devotee, and consequently He immediately nullifies all three stages—the sin, the seed of sin and the ignorance that leads one to sin.  Padma Purāṇa  confirms this:
aprārabdha-phalaṁ pāpaṁ kūṭaṁ bījaṁ phalonmukham krameṇaiva pralīyeta viṣṇu-bhakti-ratātmanām
For a further explanation of this,  The Nectar of Devotion  should be consulted. 1
