Since You are the supreme spiritual master andYou know everything, we have sought shelter of Your lotus feet forinstruction. Please give us relief by counteracting our present distress.Your lotus feet are the only shelter for a fully surrendered devotee and arethe only means for subduing all the tribulations of this material world.PURPORTOne need only seek shelter of the shade of the Lord’s lotus feet. Then allthe material tribulations that disturb him will be subdued, just as when onecomes under the shadow of a big tree, the disturbances caused by the heat ofthe scorching sun are immediately mitigated, without one’s asking forrelief.
