PURPORT
In all, there are sixty-four items listed for the rendering of service unto Krsna, and these are the regulative principles enjoined in the sastras and given by the spiritual master.
One has to serve Krsna according to these regulative principles, but if one develops spontaneous love for Krsna as exhibited in the activities of those who live in Vrajabhumi, one attains the platform of raganuga-bhakti.
One who has developed this spontaneous love is eligible for elevation to the platform enjoyed by the inhabitants of Vrajabhumi.
In Vrajabhumi, there are no regulative principles set forth for Krsna’s service.
Rather, everything is carried out in spontaneous, natural love for Krsna.
There is no question of following the principles of the Vedic system.
Such principles are followed within this material world, and as long as one is on the material platform, he has to execute them.
However, spontaneous love of Krsna is transcendental.
It may seem that the regulative principles are being violated, but the devotee is on the transcendental platform.
Such service is called gunatita, or nirguna, for it is not contaminated by the three modes of material nature.
