- He (Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Gosvami) was so pleased with that essay (presented by Srila Prabhupada ) that he used to call some of his confidential devotees and show it to them. How could we have understood the intentions of Srila Prabhupada?

- If the confidential devotees do not take up the task of elevating everyone to Krsna consciousness, then who will do it
- In the Bhagavad-gita it is said that one who does this service - namely going on to preach the glories of the Lord and creating all devotees of the Lord - that person is the most confidential and favorite of the Lord
- In the Srimad-Bhagavatam especially, the confidential parts of His activities are described by the confidential devotee Sukadeva Gosvami
- It was Rupa Gosvami, a confidential devotee taught for more than ten days continuously by Lord Caitanya
L
- Lord Caitanya assumed the role of the gopis to taste the predominated happiness of transcendental mellows. Only the confidential devotees of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu can understand this transcendental secret
- Lord is always thinking of you, & you are also recognized by all His confidential devotees because you are a pure devotee of the Lord. Your life is meant for exemplary behavior. I am therefore surprised - why have you undertaken such an abominable task?
O
- One cannot understand Bhagavad-gita or Srimad-Bhagavatam without the help of such confidential devotees of the Lord
- One who expands the conjugal love of Krsna and His enjoyment among the gopis is called a sakhi. Such a person is a confidential gopi in the conjugal affairs. Such assistants are like jewels in the form of Krsna's confidantes

T
- The confidential devotees attached to the service of the Lord are divided into several categories: some of them are servants, some are friends, some are parents, and some are conjugal lovers
- The confidential devotees of the Lord treat such illusioned living beings, and they are most pleasing in the eyes of the Lord
- The devotees headed by Gadadhara Pandita are to be considered incarnations of the internal potency of the Lord. They are confidential devotees engaged in the service of the Lord
- The devotees of the Lord who voluntarily take the responsibility of raising the foolish materialistic sense enjoyers are as confidential to the Lord as Lord Brahma
- The devotees of the Lord, who are all confidential servitors, are sometimes perplexed in the discharge of their respective duties, but they are never discouraged
- The Lord (Krsna) described the characteristics of confidential devotees - Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam - SB 11.29.34
- The Lord and His confidential devotees appear many times to fulfill the Lord's mission, but since such births are transcendental, they are not accompanied by the miserable conditions of material birth, and they are therefore called divya, transcendental
- The Lord and His very confidential devotees are treated on the same level by those who are actually engaged in the loving service of the Lord

- What the Lord wants to do Himself by His transcendental plans, He executes through His confidential devotees. That is the way of the Lord's mercy towards His pure unalloyed devotees
- When such devotees (who are more or less attached to Sri Nityananda Prabhu and Advaita Prabhu) are attached to the activities of Lord Caitanya, they at once become confidential devotees in conjugal love with the Supreme Lord
