Guest guest Posted October 2, 1999 Report Share Posted October 2, 1999 NOD Chapt 17 "Ecstatic Love" pg. 131 "By the process of executing devotional service, one is actually elevated onto the transcendental stage, beyond the material modes of nature. At that time, one's heart becomes illuminated like the sun. The sun is far above the planetary systems, and there is no possibility of its being covered by any kind of cloud. Similarly, when a devotee is purified like the sun, from his pure heart there is a diffusion of ecstatic love which is more glorious than the sunshine. Only at that time is the attachment to Krsna perfect. Spontaneously, the devotee becomes eager to serve the Lord in his ecstatic love. At this stage, the devotee is on the platform of *uttama adhikari*. Such a devotee has no agitation from material affections and is interested only in the service of Radha and Krsna."
