Gita 18.69
न च तस्मान्मनुष्येषु कश्चिन्मे प्रियकृत्तमः। भविता न च मे तस्मादन्यः प्रियतरो भुवि॥

na ca tasmān manuṣyeṣu kaścin me priya-kṛttamaḥ bhavitā na ca me tasmād anyaḥ priya-taro bhuvi

"No one among humans does dearer service to Me than such a person, and there will never be anyone on earth dearer to Me."

What This Means:

No human being does anything more pleasing to Krishna than one who teaches this wisdom. No one will ever be more dear to Him.

Going Deeper:

'Priya-krittama' - one who does the dearest service. 'Manuṣyeṣu' - among humans. 'Bhavita na anyah priyatara' - there will be no one dearer. 'Bhuvi' - on earth. This extraordinary statement elevates teaching the Gita to the highest service. Krishna considers no service more valuable than spreading this wisdom.

How To Apply This:

Want to please the Divine? Share authentic spiritual wisdom with those ready to receive it. This is considered the highest service possible.
