Spiritual life is nothing but one long, arduous journey of surrender.
We surrender our minds to hear Gita and Guru.
We surrender our hearts to take diksha from Sri Guru.
We surrender our time to practice bhakti sadhana.
We surrender our attachments to live as Krishna wants.
We surrender our desires to desire only Krishna.
We surrender our love to receive Krishna’s love.
And at last, we surrender our lives hoping to attain Sri Krishna.
In pursuance of that goal, we offer the following prayer to my Loving Lord, while continually praying, “O Krishna! I beg Your mercy.”
O Sri Krishna! I am a fool, completely ignorant and I have no experience, yet still I want to offer a prayer to You. I know that You are in my heart, so I beg You to please inspire me, and guide me in glorifying You with transcendental sound.
O Krishna! I beg for Your mercy.
O Krishna, You destroy the demons with Your weapons, Your will and with all-devouring time. You bless Your devotees with the lotus twirling in Your beautiful petal-like fingers. You make their lives auspicious by kindly giving them strength, protection and victory in the struggle of life.
O Krishna! I beg for Your mercy.
O Krishna! May I always hear Your sweet melodious voice resounding in my heart, reassuring me with Your words: “My devotee will never be vanquished!”
O Krishna! I beg for Your mercy.
O Krishna, You are completely pure but I am full of all dirty things. Please purify my mind and heart, and make me dance in joy to Your Holy Names. My mind is full of fear, hankering and anxiety. So please remove this filth and grant me the inner peace to always feel Your presence.
O Krishna! I beg for Your mercy.
O Krishna, the demoniac soldiers of arrogance and conceit are attacking the city of my heart. Please chastise these miscreants so that I may come to my senses, and realize that I am Your humble servant.
O Krishna! I beg for Your mercy.
O Krishna, the elephant of sinful lust has entered my garden of devotion. O Krishna, let me remember the elephant goad sign on the bottom Your right foot, and thus drive out this mad elephant of desire.
O Krishna! I beg for Your mercy.
O Krishna, please cover the eyes of the sinful enemies of envy within me that make me blind to the good qualities in others, and force me to offend the Vaisnavas.
O Krishna! I beg for Your mercy.
O Krishna, please protect me from the constant attacks of my bad habits of laziness and wasting time searching for material happiness.
O Krishna! I beg for Your mercy.
O Krishna, please protect me from the six faults: overeating and collecting too much, bad association, neglecting the rules and regulations of the scriptures, unnecessary talking about mundane topics, over-endeavor for material objectives, and lusting over mundane achievements.
