Translation
Translation
One who neither rejoices nor grieves, who neither laments nor desires, and who renounces both auspicious and inauspicious things – such a devotee is very dear to Me.
Il M’est très cher le dévot que n’affectent ni la joie ni la peine, qui jamais ne s’afflige et jamais ne convoite, qui renonce tant aux situations propices que funestes.

A pure devotee is neither happy nor distressed over material gain and loss, nor is he very much anxious to get a son or disciple, nor is he distressed by not getting them. If he loses anything which is very dear to him, he does not lament. Similarly, if he does not get what he desires, he is not distressed. He is transcendental in the face of all kinds of auspicious, inauspicious and sinful activities. He is prepared to accept all kinds of risks for the satisfaction of the Supreme Lord. Nothing is an impediment in the discharge of his devotional service. Such a devotee is very dear to Kṛṣṇa.
Une perte matérielle n’affecte pas plus le pur dévot qu’un gain ne le réjouit. Il n’est pas particulièrement désireux d’avoir un fils ou un disciple, et n’est pas non plus malheureux s’il n’en obtient pas. Il ne se lamente ni pour la perte de ce qui lui est cher, ni pour ce qu’il ne peut obtenir. Il demeure transcendantal, aussi bien face à ce qui est propice, qu’à ce qui est funeste ou condamnable. Mais pour satisfaire le Seigneur, il est prêt à accepter toutes sortes de risques, car rien ne saurait faire obstacle à son service de dévotion. Un tel dévot est très cher au Seigneur.
