"A devotee of the Lord does not demand respect from anyone, but wherever he goes he is honored by everyone throughout the whole world with all respect. Srinivas Acarya said that the six Gosvamis of Vrindavana are respected throughout the entire universe because a devotee, having pleased the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the source of all emanations, automatically pleases everyone, and thus everyone offers him respect."
(Srimad-Bhagavatam, 4.9.47, Purport)
