Chapter 25: Verse 71-81

ENGLISH TRANSLATION 71.Lord Kåñëa, who is the Supersoul in everyone's heart, carefully protects all His devotees, both great and small, with His invincible Sudarçana-cakra. 72.Even though He sends His invincible Sudarçana-cakra, which is His equal in power, the Lord still is not confident. He comes Himself to protect His devotees. 73.Hearing them chant His names and describe His transcendental qualities, Lord Kåñëa hurries to His devotees. He always stays, like a shadow, among them. 74.Lord Kåñëa's wife is more dear to Him than life itself. Still, if She were to hate His devotees, Lord Kåñëa would at once divorce Her. 75.O brähmaëa, the brähmaëas are most dear to Lord Kåñëa. They are more dear to Him than His own body. Still, the devotees are even more dear than the brähmaëas. The devotees are more dear to Lord Kåñëa than His own life breath. 76.Who in the three worlds is not dear to Lord Kåñëa? Whom does He single out for His love? He always thinks of they who always worship Him. 77.O brähmaëa, when the universe is flooded with water and destroyed, not one of the Lord's devotees will perish. 78.O brähmaëa, please worship Lord Kåñëa. Meditate on His lotus feet. By remembering Lord Kåñëa you will be rescued from all calamities. 79.Go at once to Vaikuëöha. Take shelter of Vaikuëöha's Lord. He is all-powerful. He is an ocean of mercy. He will make you fearless. 80.-81.Then, as the sunlight lights up the earth, the cakra's flames began to light up Mount Kailäsa. Burned by the flames of light, the servants in Kailäsa, called out Save us! Save us!", and ran to Lord Çiva for protection.
