accruing reactions, although by the grace of the Supreme Personality of
Godhead these are only very slight. Karmani nirdahati kintu ca bhakti-
bhajam (Brahma-samhité 5.54). When a devotee under the protection of
the Supreme Personality of Godhead is to suffer because of faults in his
past deeds, he passes through only a little misery by the grace of the
Lord. Although the disease of a devotee is due to mistakes committed
sometime in the past, he agrees to suffer and tolerate such miseries, and
he depends fully on the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Thus he is
never affected by material conditions of lamentation, jubilation, fear and
so on. A devotee never sees anything to be unconnected with the
Supreme Personality of Godhead. Srila Madhvacarya, quoting from the
Bhavisya Purana, says:

bhagavad-darsandd yasya
virodhad darsanam prthak

prthag-drstih sa vijfieyo
na tu sad-bheda-darsanah
