Arjuna: What kind of devotees are they? Giving You the burden of carrying their necessities?

Krishna: It's not a burden for Me. Just like a young man takes pleasure in carrying his beloved lady over his shoulders, I take pleasure in taking care of My devotees necessities even though they don't expect me to do so, because My devotees are very dear to Me.
