Text 86:
“I am a servant of Lord Caitanya, a servant of Lord Caitanya. I am a servant of Lord Caitanya, and a servant of His servants.”
Text 87:
Saying this, Advaita Prabhu dances and loudly sings. Then at the next moment He quietly sits down.
Text 88:
The source of the sentiment of servitude is indeed Lord Balarāma. The plenary expansions who follow Him are all influenced by that ecstasy.
Text 89:
Lord Saṅkarṣaṇa, who is one of His incarnations, always considers Himself a devotee.
Text 90:
Another of His incarnations, Lakṣmaṇa, who is very beautiful and opulent, always serves Lord Rāma.
Text 91:
The Viṣṇu who lies on the Causal Ocean is an incarnation of Lord Saṅkarṣaṇa, and, accordingly, the emotion of being a devotee is always present in His heart.
Text 92:
Advaita Ācārya is a separate expansion of Him. He always engages in devotional service with His thoughts, words and actions.
Text 93:
By His words He declares, “I am a servant of Lord Caitanya.” Thus with His mind He always thinks, “I am His devotee.”
Text 94:
With His body He worshiped the Lord by offering Ganges water and tulasī leaves, and by preaching devotional service He delivered the entire universe.
Text 95:
Śeṣa Saṅkarṣaṇa, who holds all the planets on His heads, expands Himself in different bodies to render service to Lord Kṛṣṇa.
Text 96:
These are all incarnations of Lord Kṛṣṇa, yet we always find that they act as devotees.
Text 97:
The scriptures call them incarnations as devotees [bhakta-avatāra]. The position of being such an incarnation is above all others.
