The most important function of a devotee is to have complete attachment for Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the father of all living beings.
(Srimad Bhagavatam----1:19:16----purport).
Attachment cannot be killed; it has simply to be transferred. Attachment for material things is called material consciousness, and attachment for Kṛṣṇa or His devotee is called Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Consciousness, therefore, is the platform of attachment. It is clearly stated here that when we simply purify the consciousness from material consciousness to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, we attain liberation. Despite the statement that one should give up attachment, desirelessness is not possible for a living entity. A living entity, by constitution, has the propensity to be attached to something. We see that if someone has no object of attachment, if he has no children, then he transfers his attachment to cats and dogs. This indicates that the propensity for attachment cannot be stopped; it must be utilized for the best purpose. Our attachment for material things perpetuates our conditional state, but the same attachment, when transferred to the Supreme Personality of Godhead or His devotee, is the source of liberation.
(Srimad Bhagavatam----3:25:20----purport).
As long as either is attached to the other for such material enjoyment, the woman is dangerous for the man, and the man is also dangerous for the woman. But if the attachment is transferred to Kṛṣṇa, both of them become Kṛṣṇa conscious, and then marriage is very nice.
(Srimad Bhagavatam----3:31:42----purport).
The disciple follows strictly and in this way learns how to control his senses. Then, by using his pure intelligence, he gradually becomes a lover of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In this way one's life becomes perfect, and his attachment for Kṛṣṇa becomes positively manifested.

From the very beginning of one's life one should practice bhakti-yoga, which increases one's attachment for Kṛṣṇa.

A neophyte disciple begins by hearing and chanting, associating with devotees and practicing the regulative principles, and thus he vanquishes all of his unwanted bad habits. In this way he develops attachment for Kṛṣṇa and cannot forget Kṛṣṇa even for a moment.
(Sri Caitanya Caritamrta----1:7:83----purport).
In bhakti, a devotee's only attachment is Kṛṣṇa; he no longer wants to maintain his attachments to many other things.
(Sri Caitanya Caritamrta----1:7:143----purport).
When one's attachment to Kṛṣṇa becomes very deep, one attains the condition called love of Godhead.
