happiness. Another is vyighatsa, which indicates that he no longer
desires material enjoyment. Another symptom is apipata, which means
that he has no desire other than to engage in the devotional service of
Krsna, his dearmost pursuable Lord. A further symptom is satya-kama,
which indicates that all his desires are directed to the Supreme Truth,
Krsna. He does not want anything else. He is satya-sarikalpa. Whatever
he desires is fulfilled by the grace of Krsna. First of all, he does not
desire anything for his material benefit, and secondly if he desires any-
thing at all, he simply desires to serve the Supreme Lord. That desire is
fulfilled by the Lord’s grace. That is called satya-sankalpa. Srila
Visvanatha Cakravarti points out that the word mahimd means return-
ing to the spiritual world, back home, back to Vaikuntha. Sri Sukadeva
says that the word mahima means that the devotee attains the qualities of
the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is called sadharma, or “the
same quality.” Just as Krsna is never born and never dies, His devotees
who return to Godhead never die and never take birth within the
material world.
