Vaikuṇṭhaloka Occupation Quote by A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda
““In Vaikuṇṭhaloka there is no occupation but the service of the Lord, and this service is not rendered with a purpose. Although every service has a particular result, the devotees never aspire for the fulfillment of their own desires; their desires are fulfilled by rendering transcendental loving service to the Lord.””
