ciṃtākāpi na kāryā niveditātmabhiḥ kadāpīti
bhagavānapi puṣṭistho na kariṣyati laukikīṃ ca gatim [1]
One should never worry who has surrendered himself (to God) because the Blessed Lord, Who is established in grace, will never lead them into a worldly existence. [1]
nivedanaṃ tu smartavyaṃ sarvathā tādṛśairjanaiḥ
sarveśvaraśca sarvātmā nijecchātaḥ kariṣyati [2]
One should always remember His surrender to God and continually associate with god realized saints. The Supreme Lord, who is the soul of all, will act in your favor according to His will, doing what is appropriate for you. [2]
sarveṣāṃ prabhusambamdho na pratyekamiti sthitiḥ
ato'nya viniyoge'pi ciṃtā kā svasya so'picet [3]
Everything is connected to Lord Krishna, and nothing is ever separated from Him. Thus, if you engage in activities or connections that you perceive as unrelated to Him, there is no need to worry, for they are indeed connected to Him. [3]
ajñānādathavā jñānāt kṛtamātmanivedanam
yaiḥ kṛṣṇasātkṛta prāṇaisteṣāṃ kā paridevanā [4]
When those who have dedicated themselves with or without understanding should have no concerns, what can then be said about those who have established their very being with Krishna? [4]
tathā nivedane ciṃtā tyājyā śrīpuruṣottame
viniyoge'pi sā tyājyā samartho hi hariḥ svataḥ [5]
Having surrendered oneself to the Supreme Personality, Shri Krishna, one should let go of worries. Even amidst worldly affairs and duties, one should relinquish anxiety, knowing that Shri Hari is fully capable of taking care in every aspect. [5]
loke svāsthyaṃ tathā vede haristu na kariṣyati
puṣṭimārgasthitoyasmātsākṣiṇobhavatā'khilāḥ [6]
In the path of Pushti Marg (the path leading to God), Lord Krishna neither entangles a devotee in the cycles of the material world nor in the rituals of the Vedas. In this regard, all grace-filled devotees are witnesses. [6]
sevākṛtirgurorājñā bādhanaṃ vā harīcchayā
ataḥ sevāparaṃ cittaṃ vidhāyasthīyatāṃ sukham [7]
Perform seva according to the guru's instructions. However, If for some reason, seva cannot be performed as per the guru's directions, consider this to be the wish of Hari and you should act according to the Lord's wish. Once directed by the Lord, do not worry about the Guru's directions. One should, however, keep the mind absorbed in the sewa and live very cheerfully. [7]
cittodvegaṃ vidhāyāpi hariryadyatkariṣyati
tathaiva tasya līleti matvā ciṃtāṃ drutaṃ tyajeta [8]
If for some reason Sri Hari creates a situation that makes you anxious, then keep in mind that Whatever Shri Hari will do is merely His leela. Having understood this, you should relinquish any unrelated concerns and worries immediately. [8]
tasmātsarvātmanā nityaṃ śrīkṛṣṇaḥ śaraṇaṃ mama
vadadbhirevaṃ satataṃ stheyamityeva me matiḥ [9]
Feel Krishna everywhere who is the soul of all and continually contemplate, “Shri Krishna is my refuge”. This is my firm conviction. [9]
