Such a person is to be considered an intermediate devotee. He becomes a first-class devotee when, in the course of advancing in devotional service, he feels an intimate relationship with all living entities, seeing them as part and parcel of the Supreme Person.		<div class="purport text"><p>This verse is also from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam ([[Vanisource:SB 11.2.47\|SB 11.2.47]]).
