Gurudeva on his morning walk where he gives a clarification of verse: anyabhilasita-sunyam jnana-karmady-anavrtam anakulyena krsnanu-silanam bhaktir uttama (Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu 1.1.11) Uttama-bhakti, pure devotional service, is the cultivation of activities that are meant exclusively for the benefit of Sri Krsna, in other words, the uninterrupted flow of service to Sri Krsna, performed through all endeavors of body, mind, and speech, and through expression of various spiritual sentiments (bhavas).
