A pure devotee is never disturbed in any circumstances.

"One who is not envious but who is a kind friend to all living entities, who does not think himself a proprietor, who is free from false ego and equal both in happiness and distress, who is always satisfied and engaged in devotional service with determination and whose mind and intelligence are in agreement with Me ;he is very dear to Me."
A pure devotee is never disturbed in any circumstances. Nor is he envious of anyone. Nor does a devotee become his enemy's enemy; he thinks that one is acting as his enemy due to his own past misdeeds. Thus it is better to suffer than to protest. In the Scriptures it is stated that Whenever a devotee is in distress or has fallen into difficulty, he thinks that it is the Lord's mercy upon him. He thinks: "Thanks to my past misdeeds I should suffer far, far greater than I am suffering now. So it is by the mercy of the Supreme Lord that I am not getting all the punishment I am due. I am just getting a little, by the mercy of God."
Therefore he is always kind, calm, quiet and patient, despite many distressful conditions. A true devotee does not attach much importance to the peace and trouble pertaining to the body because he knows perfectly well that he is not the material body. He does not identify with the body; therefore he is freed from the conception of false ego and is equiposed both in happiness and distress. He is tolerant, and he is satisfied with whatever comes by the grace of the Lord. He does not endeavor much to achieve something with great difficulty; therefore he is always joyful. He is a completely perfect mystic because he is fixed in the instructions received from the spiritual master, and because his senses are controlled, he is determined. He is not swayed, no one can lead him from the fixed determination of devotional service. He is fully conscious that God is supreme, so no one can disturb him. All his qualifications enable him to depend entirely on the Lord. Such a standard of devotional service is undoubtably very rare, but a devotee becomes situated in that stage by following the regulative principles of devotional service. The Lord says that such a devotee is very dear to Him, for the Lord is always pleased with all his activities in full God consciousness.!! 💖💕🌻🌷🙏🌈🌸🌼🌷🌸💖🙏🌸💖🌷🌈🌼🌻🌸🙏
