The śīta and other anubhāvas [Note: Śīta anubhāvas are described in 2.2.3 as singing, yawning, panting, showing disregard, drooling and smiling. ] that the śānta-bhakta shares with the dāsas and others are yawning, stretching the body, giving instructions to the devotees, offering obeisances to the Lord, and reciting praises of the Lord.

Sometimes a devotee in śānta-rasa yawns, stretches his limbs, instructs on devotional service, offers respectful obeisances unto the form of the Lord, offers nice prayers to the Lord and has a desire to give direct service with his body. These are some of the common symptoms of the devotee who is situated in neutrality.
