Fwd: A Devotee Desires Only God's Happiness

[Guest guest]

Hare Krsna. Question: How does a devotee not desire his own happiness and only desire God's happiness ? Answer: A devotee fulfills God's inner feelings and expressions of "Ekaaki ne ramate". God has created the world for His devotees, and the devotees for Himself. Therefore a devotees' existence was created only for pleasing God. In reality, the enjoyer of all happiness is only God, not the embodied Soul (jeev). Just like a child is for the mother, similarly the devotee is for God. Besides God, a devotee has no independent existence (no existence of his own). Question: Can a devotee lead the entire Universe to salvation ? If he can, then why does he not do so ?

If fact, he is ashamed of himself that in the presence of God, how can he lead

another to salvation? A devotees does not have the inner feeling or expression that he is capable of leading another to salvation. In his eyes, besides God there is no one else "All is GodVasudeva Sarvam"; therefore whose salvation will he engage in ?
