हरि अनन्त हरि कथा अनन्ता,
कहहिं सुनहिं बहु विधि सब संता,
गोपाल हरि केशव अरिहन्ता,
मन भज ले रे तू गोविंदा ||

हे अकिञ्चन गोचर जगन्नाथा,
मन भजे सदा ही गोविंदा ||
हे करुणासिन्धु दीनानाथ,
गोवर्धनधारी गोपीनाथ,

प्रतिक्षण प्रतिकण तुमको ही पाऊँ,
मनमोहन जगदीश मुकुंदा,
मन भजे सदा ही गोविंदा ||

He's already in the Brahman platform. This is bhakti. For a bhaktin, there is no question of liberation. He's already liberated. A millionaire is already rich. He doesn't require to become rich. It is automatically.
