Shri Gokulnathji's Hasya Prasangs: Prasang - 27

A Bhakt Only Thinks of Prabhu’s Happiness/Comfort (Bhakt Prabhunu-ja Sukh Vichare-Che):

Once when the talk started on Nirpeksh Bhakti, Aap said that… Narayandas Bhramachari was sitting with Shri Thakorji during last moments; at that time Shri Thakorji made him experience something divine…. And told him to ask for something. At that time Narayandas said… what should I ask for ? Now I am asking such that Aap come to Shri Gusaiji’s place (…have to evu maangu ke aap Shri Gusaiji-ni ghare padhaaro); There get (us) to do your seva. In his mind, the thought-process of Narayandas was this….that in someone else’s house what happiness would Shri Thakorji get…? At this time, he asked for only this much, there was no desire to ask for anything else.

Vivechan – Bhakts (devotees) only think of the comfort/happiness of Prabhu… When Thakorji requested him to ask for something, even at that time he asked for something that would provide happiness and comfort for Thakorji only. From this one understands that a pushti-bhakt always thinks of Prabhu’s happiness and comfort. Only those thoughts of Prabhu’s happiness come to the devotee day and night.
