Yogī, there are many yogīs. They have got very exalted power, extraordinary power. Just like this Durvāsā Muni. He once traveled all over the space. Not only within this universe—he traveled outside the universe in the spiritual world, and he saw the Supreme Personality of Godhead face to face. He was such a powerful yogī. And he took only one year to come back again. So still, he was defeated by a devotee. He was very angry. Anyway, he was a great yogī. And anyone, great personality, we should ask his blessing for making advancement in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. That's all.

So Durvāsā Muni was a great yogī, Durvāsā Muni. And amongst all the yogīs, the bhakta-yogī, the devotee, is the greatest. That is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā:

yoginām api sarveṣāṁ

mad-gata āntarātmanā

śraddhāvān bhajate yo māṁ

sa me yuktatamo mataḥ

(BG 6.47)
