Poṣaṇa· The Lord's protectionSeek Blessings That Free Material Desire
“Whatever benedictions you hope for in order to become free of material desires are ever yours, O fair and noble lady, for you are My unalloyed devotee.”
What the purport teaches
- Kṛṣṇa calls Rukmiṇī His unalloyed devotee.
- The benedictions described here serve freedom from material desires, rather than their increase.
- He assures her that whatever blessings she hopes for toward that freedom are always hers.
Try this today
Offer one prayer for freedom from a specific material desire, so that you can serve Kṛṣṇa more purely.
Ask yourself
Do the blessings I seek support pure devotion or increase my material desires?
Carry the question through the day, then answer it in your own words before sleep.
