“O Lord Viṣṇu, the learned say that for any man, constant remembrance of You will destroy the darkness of ignorance. O master, I have wronged You!”

- This remembrance is available to any person; the translation speaks of its benefit for all.
- Jarā acknowledges that he has wronged the very Lord whose remembrance destroys ignorance.
Try this today
Set aside one quiet minute today to remember Lord Viṣṇu.
Ask yourself
When ignorance clouds my choices, do I turn toward remembrance of the Lord?
Carry the question through the day, then answer it in your own words before sleep.
From Canto 10, chapter 14 onward, the translation and purports were completed by Śrīla Prabhupāda's disciples after his departure, and published by the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust.
