Surrendering at the lotus feet of Lord Krishna

From Prema Vivarta-

sarvacara-vivarjitah sathadhiyoh vratya jagadvancakah

dambhahankrti pana-paisunyaparah papasca ye nisthurah

ye canye dhanandaraputraniratah sarve ''dhamaste' pi hi

shrigovinda-padaravindasaranah suddhah bhavanti dvija

 

"'For one who takes shelter of Lord Govinda's lotus feet,, all of his sins are eradicated by chanting the Lord's holy name. He may be an abominable wretch, the biggest liar and cheat, arrogant and egoist, always given to sinful ways, and a grossly materialistic person attached to wife, children and wealth.  If one recognizes his offenses and remorsely weeps and chants Lord Krishna's name, then very soon, due to his advancement in devotional surrender, his sin are expiated. He is elevated to become a pure brahman.

    beautiful verse prabhuji, very inspiring (we should all post quotes about surrendering to the lotus feet of Krsna that we have heard of or remember)

    bhajahū re mana śrī-nanda-nandana
    abhaya-caraṇāravinda re
    durlabha mānava-janama sat-sańge
    taroho e bhava-sindhu re

    1) O mind just worship the lotus feet of the son of Nanda, which make one fearless. Having obtained this rare human birth, cross over this ocean of worldly existence through the association of saintly persons.

    (Govinda Das- BhajaHu Re Mana)
