4 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 8, Ch. 17

“One should render transcendental loving service to the Supreme Lord
Krsna favorably and without desire for material profit or gain through
fruitive activities or philosophical speculation. That is called pure devo-
tional service.” One simply has to concentrate upon the lotus feet of
Vasudeva, Krsna (sa vai manah krsna-padaravindayoh). Then the mind
and senses will be controlled, and one can engage himself fully in the
devotional service of the Lord. The devotee does not need to practice the
hatha-yoga system to control the mind and senses; his mind and senses
are automatically controlled because of unalloyed devotional service to

the Lord.
