Friendly Relationships between devotees pleases Krishna

Pleased by the austerities of the Pracetas (sons of King Pracinabarhi) Lord Vishnu appears before them in His eight handed form and blesses them.

Lord Vishnu speaks the verse SB 4.30.8 "My dear sons of the King, I am very much pleased by the friendly relationships among you. All of you are engaged in one occupation — devotional service. I am so pleased with your mutual friendship that I wish you all good fortune. Now you may ask a benediction of Me."

Notes:

1. The Lord is extremely pleased when He sees devotees cooperating in service to Krishna.
2. Disunity exists when DS is carried out on the bodily platform for the satisfaction of one's need for fame, prestige, envy,etc- that is in the mood of serving oneself and not Krishna.
3. Thus one must rise above material desires and keep questioning oneself " What is the purpose of doing this service. For whose pleasure?

Handling disagreements:

1. If there is some disagreement over service, such disagreement is to be taken as spiritual.
2. There is variegatedness in Krsna's creation and everyone will have their own way of serving the Lord.We should be able to perceive this and accept different viewpoints as the ultimate goal is to serve Krishna.
3. If we ourselves try to follow this mood and see someone else not doing the same, instead of looking down upon them we must be compassionate and encourage them to come to this platform through our love and care for them. We must refrain from being judgmental as that is detrimental to pleasing Krishna.
4. If we see someone not doing service correctly , instead of discouraging them we must help them improve their service by our love and care.
5. We must humbly meditate on how best we can serve the Lord and not find faults with one another.

We should learn somehow with the grace of guru and Krsna to rise above our petty frailties and unite for the right and only cause - devotional service.

The result is that Krishna will be extremely pleased and willing to award all kinds of benedictions on living beings
