|| Jai Sriman Narayana ||
I shall take refuge at the lotus feet of
supreme Lord Krishna, I have no means of livelihood and always been dependent
on others, I have committed various sins and I am in a pathetic state, Oh! Sri
Krishna, I shall surrender at your lotus feet,
I have been soaked in the worldly desires and have been indifferent
always, Oh! Srikrishna I shall surrender at your lotus feet, I have been always
into worldly matters and taking immense pleasures in the association of
charming young women, I have been always deceitful and wicked, Oh! Srikrishna I
shall surrender at your lotus feet, I have been engaged into all wicked deeds,
I have not followed any righteous deeds due to my impure intellect I have been
chasing for the accumulation of material pleasures, Oh! Srikrishna I shall
surrender at your lotus feet, I have completely forgotten about my Swadharma/duties,
responsibilities and rites to be performed, and I have no pure thought to
follow the Dharmic rite, I have been ignorant to realize self, Oh! Sri Krishna,
I shall surrender at your lotus feet, I have completely drowned in the ocean of
worldly existence, I have shattered, disoriented, disturbed, disappointed, and
frustrated due to my unruly acts, Oh! Sri Krishna I shall surrender at your lotus feet, I have
been wandering without pure intellect, courage, devotion, and wrapped up in
immoral acts, Oh! Sri Krishna, I shall surrender at your lotus feet, I have been
immersed in seeking physical pleasure, and hence I have refused to be with the
noble-minded, I have been ruled by the sensual pleasures, Oh! Sri Krishna, I
shall surrender at your lotus feet, recitation of the above verses, devotion
and selfless service at the lotus feet of the preceptor would eradicate all
kinds of distress and afflictions.
