In other words, one who is actually engaged in devotional service, he has already realized Brahman. That means . . . just like a man is offered that, "If you become a high-court judge, you'll get $4,000, or $16,000 salary per month." So if one is getting $16,000 per month, that means he has become already high-court judge, in a diverse way. That means one who is seriously engaged in devotional service, he's already Brahman realized. He's on the Brahman platform.
This is also confirmed in the Bhagavad-gītā: māṁ ca 'vyabhicāreṇa bhakti-yogena yaḥ sevate (BG 14.26). If anyone is seriously engaged in devotional service, avyabhicāreṇa, without any fault . . . that means according to the rules and regulation as they are mentioned. Rules and regulations are required so long we do not develop that love of God. When actually one develops love of God, there is no question of rules and regulation. Automatically he obeys all the rules and regulation.
So one who is seriously engaged in devotional service, māṁ ca 'vyabhicāreṇa bhakti-yogena yaḥ sevate sa guṇān samatītyaitān, he's already transcendental to the reactions of different modes of material nature. He's already. Brahma-bhūyāya kalpate. So he is to be understood that he is already Brahman realized.
It is not that you have to . . . this is the spiritual. Material, suppose if you have to accept the post of high-court judge, then you have to gradually qualify yourself. But spiritually, if you immediately engage yourself in the service of the Lord, then you become a high-court judge immediately. You are brahma-bhūtaḥ. That is the difference between matter and spirit. It is unconditional. Ahaituky apratihatā (SB 1.2.6). Simply we have to agree, "My Lord, from today, I dedicate my life for Your service," you are immediately brahma-bhūtaḥ. Immediately, from that moment. It is so nice. Not that you have to take some time how to become brahma-bhūtaḥ. So those who are actually engaged in the spiritual devotional service of the Lord, it is to be understood they are already on the platform of brahma-bhūtaḥ stage. Is it clear? Yes.
