Text

I pray to the lotus feet of the six GosvÄmÄ«s — ÅšrÄ« RÅ«pa, SanÄtana, Bhaá¹­á¹­a RaghunÄtha, ÅšrÄ« JÄ«va, GopÄla Bhaá¹­á¹­a and DÄsa RaghunÄtha — so that all impediments to my writing this literature will be annihilated and my real desire will be fulfilled.

Purport

If one wants to benefit the entire world, he will certainly find persons like hogs and pigs who will put forward many impediments. That is natural. But if a devotee seeks shelter at the lotus feet of the six GosvÄmÄ«s, the merciful GosvÄmÄ«s will certainly give the Lord’s servitor all protection. It is not astonishing that impediments are placed before those who are spreading the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement all over the world. Nevertheless, if we adhere to the lotus feet of the six GosvÄmÄ«s and pray for their mercy, all impediments will be annihilated, and the transcendental devotional desire to serve the Supreme Lord will be fulfilled.
