taá¹ tvÄkhilÄtma-dayiteÅ›varam ÄÅ›ritÄnÄá¹
sarvÄrtha-daá¹ sva-ká¹›ta-vid visá¹›jeta ko nu
ko vÄ bhajet kim api vismá¹›taye 'nu bhÅ«tyai

tam - that; tvÄ - You; akhila - of all; Ätma - the Supreme Soul; dayita - the most dear; Ä«Å›varam - and the supreme controller; ÄÅ›rÄ«tÄnÄm - of those who take shelter of You; sarva-artha - of all perfections; dam - the bestower; sva-ká¹›ta - the benefit you have given; vit - who knows; visá¹›jeta - can reject; kaḥ - who; nu - indeed; kaḥ - who; vÄ - or; bhajet - can accept; kim api - anything; vismá¹›taye - for forgetfulness; anu - consequently; bhÅ«tyai - for sense gratification; kim - what; vÄ - or; bhavet - is; na - not; tava - Your; pÄda - of the lotus feet; rajaḥ - the dust; juá¹£Äm - for those who are serving; naḥ - ourselves.
Who, then, could dare reject You, the very Soul, the most dear object of worship, and the Supreme Lord of all — You who give all possible perfections to the devotees who take shelter of You? Who could be so ungrateful, knowing the benefits You bestow? Who would reject You and accept something for the sake of material enjoyment, which simply leads to forgetfulness of You? And what lack is there for us who are engaged in the service of the dust of Your lotus feet?
As stated in the NÄrÄyaṇīya of the Moká¹£a-dharma, in ÅšrÄ« MahÄbhÄrata:
yÄ vai sÄdhana-sampattiḥ
puruá¹£Ärtha-catuá¹£á¹aye
tayÄ vinÄ tad Äpnoti
naro nÄrÄyaṇÄÅ›rayaḥ
“Whatever among the four goals of human life can be achieved by various spiritual practices is automatically achieved without such endeavors by the person who has taken shelter of Lord NÄrÄyaṇa, the refuge of all persons.†Thus a Kṛṣṇa conscious person knows that he will obtain all perfection of life simply by surrendering to the devotional service of Lord Kṛṣṇa. This is the highest stage of yoga, as confirmed in Bhagavad-gÄ«tÄ.
