(9) Emperor Bali attained success by surrendering
everything unto the Lord along with his personal body.

These are the nine standerd items of devotional service of
the Lord and a candidate can make his choice to adopt any one,
two, three, four or all the items together as he likes. All the
services being rendered to the Absolute the services are them-
selves Absolute and there is no material difference of quantity
or quality like the inert matter. They are different variegated-
Ness in the spiritual platform, where everything is identical with
everything else. Emperor Amburish adopted all the above
nine items in his practical life as follows and he also attained
the same result. He engaged his mind just on the lotus feet
of the Lord, his word in the description of the spiritual world,
his hands in the service of cleansing the templeof the Lord and
his earsin the service of submissive hearing of the words
of Lord Sri Krishna. He engaged his eyes in  visualising
the the Deities of the Lord, his body in touching the
body of the devotees, his nostrils in smelling the flowers
first offered to the deity, his tongue in tasting the foodstuff
first offered to the deity, his legs in visiting the temple of the
Lord and all his energy of life in the executive services of the
Lord without the least desire for sense gratification. All these
activities helped him to attain the perfect stageof spiritual
life which defeats the supermost dexterity of material science.

It is therefore incumbent for all human being to adopt
these principles of spiritual realisation for perfection of life. A
human being has no obligation whatsoever save and except the
spiritual realisation in the life. In the modern set up of civili-
sation, the human society is too busy in the dischargeof nation-
al duties. Butin fact national duty, social duty, or human-
itarian duties are obligatory to them only who are bereft from
the spiritual duty. As soon as a man takes his birth in any
part of the globe he does not haveonly national, socialor
or humanitarian obligations but also he has his obligations to
the demigods who supply the air, light, water etc, he has
obligations to the great sages, who have left, behind them vast
