Glories of Nitya Seva  

 

bhavantam evanucaran nirantarah 

prasanta-nihsesa-mano-rathantarah 

kadaham aikantika-nitya-kinkarah 

praharsayisyami sanatha-jivitam 


“By serving You constantly, ne is freed from all material desires and is completely
pacified. When shall I engage as your permanent eternal servant and always feel
joyful to have such a fitting master”
 


In His teachings to Sanatana Goswami, Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu has declared every living entity to be an eternal servitor of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is the constitutional position of all living entities. Just as a dog or servant is very much satisfied to get a competent, perfect master, or as a child is completely satisfied to possess a competent father, so the living entity is satisfied by completely engaging in the service of the Supreme Lord. He thereby knows that he has a competent master to save him from all kinds of danger. Unless the living entity comes to the guaranteed protection of the Supreme Lord, he is full of anxiety. This life of anxiety is called material existence. To be completely satisfied and devoid of anxiety, one must come to the position of eternally rendering service to the Supreme Lord. This verse is also from the Stotra-ratna (43), by Sri Yamunacarya, Madhya 1.207
