Krishna Katha - Verse for meditation - 07/10/2010 - 08/10/2010

SB 10.2.30

tvayy ambujaksakhila-sattva-dhamni

samadhinavesita-cetasaike

tvat-pada-potena mahat-krtena

kurvanti govatsa-padam bhavabdhim

 

O lotus-eyed Lord, by concentrating one's meditation on Your lotus feet, which are the reservoir of all existence, and by accepting those lotus feet as the boat by which to cross the ocean of nescience, one follows in the footsteps of mahajanas [great saints, sages and devotees]. By this simple process, one can cross the ocean of nescience as easily as one steps over the hoofprint of a calf.

Demigods to Krsna in Devaki's womb


SB 10.14.58

samasrita ye pada-pallava-plavam

mahat-padam punya-yaso murareh

bhavambudhir vatsa-padam param padam

padam padam yad vipadam na tesam

 

For those who have accepted the boat of the lotus feet of the Lord, who is the shelter of the cosmic manifestation and is famous as Murari, the enemy of the Mura demon, the ocean of the material world is like the water contained in a calf's hoof-print. Their goal is param padam, Vaikuntha, the place where there are no material miseries, not the place where there is danger at every step.

Sukadeva Gosvami
