Who Is the Most Powerful and Ultimate Protector in the World?
मुक्तिं चेतसि यः स्थितोऽमलधियां पुंसां ददात्यव्ययः
किं चित्रं यदघं प्रयाति विलयं तत्राच्युते कीर्तिते
Those desirous of mukti/moksha, they keep him in their heart and meditate. He grants them mukti. It is not at all surprising that by praising him, sins are washed away.
शमायालं जलं वह्नेस्तमसो भास्करोदयः
शान्तिः कलौ ह्यघौघस्य नामसंकीर्तनं हरेः
Water is enough to extinguish fire. Darkness goes away at sunrise. In Kali Yuga, nama sankeertana of Sri Hari is enough for relief from sins.
हरेर्नामैव नामैव नमैव मम जीवनम्
कलौ नास्त्येव नास्त्येव नास्त्येव गतिरन्यथा
My life is only Hari’s name, Hari’s name and Hari’s name.
In Kali Yuga, other than his name, there is no other way, no other way, no other way.
स्तुत्वा विष्णुं वासुदेवं विपापो जायते नरः
विष्णोः संपूजनान्नित्यं सर्वपापं प्रणश्यति
Again and again, Sri Hari’s power to remove sins is being spoken about.
By praising him, one becomes devoid of sin. By doing his puja, all sins would disappear.
सर्वदा सर्वकार्येषु नास्ति तेषाममंगलम्
येषां हृदिस्थो भगवान् मङ्गलायतनो हरिः
If you have in your heart Sri Hari, the abode of everything that is noble and auspicious, then you will not meet with anything inauspicious in any matter.
नित्यं सञ्चियेद्देवं योगयुक्तो जनार्दनम्
सास्य मन्ये परा रक्षा को हिनस्त्यच्च्युताश्रयम्
What is the ultimate protection? Assuming yoga bhava, that you are one with him, think about Sri Hari perpetually.
Who will dare to touch someone who has taken refuge in him?
Who will risk to incur his wrath by touching someone who is being protected by him?
गङ्गास्नानसहस्रेषु पुष्करस्नानकोटिषु
यत्पापं विलयं याति स्मृते नश्यति तद्धरौ
Sin that is so much it will go only after one thousand dips in Ganga, or a crore of dips in Pushkar — it goes merely by thinking about him.
मुहूर्त्तमपि यो ध्यायेन्नारायणमनामयम्
सोऽपि सिद्धिमवाप्नोति किं पुनस्त्त्परायणः
Muhurta is 2 ghatikas, 48 minutes. Even if you properly meditate upon him for a muhurta, you get siddhi — the divine powers.
What to say about someone who is continuously immersed in him?
प्रायश्चित्तान्यशेषाणि तपः कर्म आत्मकानि वै
यानि तेषामशेषाणां कृष्णानुस्मरणं परम्
Of all the personal anushtanas such as Sandhya Vandanam, of all the prayaschittas, of all the various means of tapas, the ultimate is Krishna Smaranam.
कलिकल्मषमत्युग्रं नरकार्तिप्रदं नृणाम्
प्रयाति विलयं सद्यः सकृद्यत्रापि संस्मृते
The sins of Kali, capable of taking one to suffering in hell, will simply disappear even if Sri Hari is thought about — just once.
सकृत्स्मृतोऽपि गोविन्दो नृणां जन्मशतैः कृतम्
पापराशिं दहत्याशु तूलराशिमिवानलः
A spark is sufficient to burn a heap of cotton. Just remembering him once is enough to destroy sins committed in 100 births.
यथाग्निरुद्धतशिखः कक्षं दहति सानिलः
तथा चित्तस्थितो विष्णुर्योगिनां सर्वकिल्बिषम्
Just as fire burns a heap of straws, Vishnu seated in the heart of yogis burns away all their sins.
