One should see the magnanimous position of a pure devotee and thus be inspired to develop spiritual attachment for Krishna. The position of Lord Krishna's servant is never to be viewed deprecatingly; Lord Krishna, the Supreme Godhead never accepts as His servant a person of little spiritual calibre. After having performed his prescribed duties for many millions of life times, leading a pious life of non violence and humility, and praying constantly and sincerely to the Supreme Lord a person is awarded the opportunity at his time of death.One should offer Seva to him and hear the chanting of Lord Narayana's Holy name. This will certainly afford him liberation from all material bondage, only then can he be blessed to become a servant of Lord Krishna.
All the commentators of Bhagavatm have clearly indicated that the liberated souls can render full devotional service to the Supreme Lord, the performer of transcendental pastimes. Therefore the devotees position is almost equal to the Lord Himself, and the Lord always sees His devotees in a more exalted position that Himself even.
There are innumerable elogies that have been compiled since time immemorial about the divine excellence's of the pure devotees and still they are inadequate to describe them perfectly. Lord Siva, and Lord Brahma are very happy to be called Lord Krishna's servants, and Ananta Sesha is always hankering to serve Him. Although the pure devotees are almost equal to the Lord Himself, yet they are constantly wanting to serve Him in loving attachment. - BVNM
