The sthāyi-bhāva of prīti-rasa: Eagerness to execute service with respect and trembling with eagerness, because of knowledge of the Lord’s greatness, is the quality of sambhrama. Prīti combined with this sambhrama is called sambhrama-prīti. [Note: Sambhrama-prīti was also defined in verses 4 and 5, as identifying oneself as the servant of the Lord.] The learned call this sambhrama-prīti the sthāyi-bhāva of prīti-rasa.

Commentary

Here kampa (trembling) means a sense of unsteadiness because of thinking how one should do a service properly. [Note: In the commentary on verse 3.2.166 it is explained that kampa means “trembling with eagerness to do service as quickly as possible.”]
