is served by the foremost servitors like Nanda, Sunanda, Prabala, and
Arhana, His immediate associates.
PURPORT
When we speak of the king it is naturally understood that the king is
accompanied by his confidential associates, like his secretary, private
secretary, aide-de-camp, ministers, advisers, etc. So also when we see the
Lord we see Him with His different energies, associates and confidential
servitors, etc. So the Supreme Lord, who is the leader of all living entities,

sacrifices and the enjoyer of everything in His entire creation, is not only
the Supreme Person, but also He is always surrounded by His immediate
associates, all engaged in their loving transcendental service to Him.
