May Lord Nārāyaṇa protect me from unnecessarily
following false religious systems and falling from
my duties due to madness. May the Lord in His
appearance as Nara protect me from unnecessary
pride. May Lord Dattātreya, the Master of all mystic
power, protect me from falling while performing
bhakti-yoga, and may Lord Kapila, the Master of
all good qualities, protect me from the material
bondage of fruitive activities.

May Lord Keśava protect me with His club in the
first portion of the day, and may Govinda, who
is always engaged in playing His flute, protect
me in the second portion of the day. May Lord
Nārāyaṇa, who is equipped with all potencies,
protect me in the third part of the day, and

enemies, protect me in the fourth part of the day.

fearful for the demons, protect me during the
fifth part of the day. In the evening, may Lord
Mādhava, appearing as Brahmā, Viṣṇu and
Maheśvara, protect me, and in the beginning

May Lord Dāmodara protect me in the early morning,
and may Lord Viśveśvara protect me during the
junctions of day and night.
