Text 76] The Process of Devotional Service 369

PURPORT

This verse is from Srimad-Bhagavatam (11.2.47). Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura says
that one who has full love for the Supreme Personality of Godhead and who
maintains a good friendship with the Lord’s devotees is always callous to those
who envy Krsna and Krsna’s devotees. Such a person is to be considered an inter-
mediate devotee. He becomes a first-class devotee when, in the course of ad-
vancing in devotional service, he feels an intimate relationship with all living en-
tities, seeing them as part and parcel of the Supreme Person.
