mukti
To become free. Kalyãn. Moksh. Those who are bhaktas of Bhagvãn do not desire any of the four types of mukti: to reside in the dhãm of Bhagvãn; to stay near Bhagvãn; to assume a svarup similar to Bhagvãn; and to attain powers similar to Bhagvãn. A nishkãm bhakta of Bhagvãn does not wish for any of these. Instead, he only wishes for Bhagvãn’s sevã. [Gadhadã I – 43].
sakãm bhakta
A bhakta who superficially appears to be a tyãgi and nishkãmi. However, he does not have wish for the murti of Bhagvãn, but instead has desires for the darshan of the ãtmã and the four types of mukti. Even if his nishchay is perfect, is a great tyãgi, has firm vairãgya, intense ãtmã- nishthã, and he is not disturbed by inner enemies, if he desires anything other than the pratyaksha svarup of Bhagvãn, then even if he is in the higher loks, he will certainly attain less bliss.
