PURPORT
It appears that the Lord is partial to His devotees. Everyone is related with the Lord. He is equal to everyone and yet He is more inclined to His own men and devotees. The Lord is everyone's father. Nobody can be His father and yet nobody can be his son. His devotees are His kinsmen and His devotees are His relations. This is His transcendental pastimes. It has nothing to do with mundane ideas of relations, fatherhood or anything like that. As mentioned above the Lord is above the modes of material nature and as such there is nothing mundane when we call His kinsmen and relations in devotional service.
