"The pure devotee does not forget Lord Krishna even for a moment and Lord Krishna never forgets His devotee.
Every learned man knows very well that attachment to the material world is the greatest entanglement to the spirit soul. But that same attachment when applied to the spiritual master opens the door of liberation.
The spiritual master’s eternal occupation is to expand the service of the Lord by training his disciples in a service attitude. This service attitude, along with knowledge of Krishna, is such a great gift that it is impossible to repay the benefactor.
Our dear Lord, O Supreme Personality of Godhead, because our association with material desires one after another we were gradually falling into a blind well full of snakes following the general populous but your servant Srila Prabhupada kindly accepted us as his followers and instructed us how to achieve the transcendental position. Therefore our first duty is to serve him."

Hare Krsna Mataji,
PAMHO.
Devotee duty can be summarised as:
1) Always remember Krsna, never forget Krsna.
2) Chant Hare Krsna and Be Happy.
The rest will follow.
Haribol,
Your servant,
