Verse 1.5.9: There are 4 things, dharma artha kama moksa, which is sought after. But topmost to these is Bhakti. When we understand the power of Bhakti, then we attain to self-realization, we enjoy the service of Krishna, giving us eternal bliss or happiness.
Srila Prabhupada translates Bhakti as Devotional Service. The love is expressed through service to Krishna.
Eg: There is no one in the universe who could control Krishna as Mother Yasoda, which she did because of her intense love to her child.

Pure devotee does not need liberation also. They do not want to do business with Krishna, all they yearn for is eternal service to the Lord, in any circumstance and in any place. That's why a devotee is compassionate, devotional service is ultimate. Chant very nicely, because chanting is the ultimate part of devotional service.
