Śrī Caitanya Caritamrta · Text Madhya 24.60
যৈছে তৈছে যোহি কোহি করয়ে স্মরণ ।
চারিবিধ তাপ তার করে সংহরণ ॥ ৬০ ॥
yaiche taiche yohi kohi karaye smaraṇa
cāri-vidha tāpa tāra kare saṁharaṇa
“When the devotee somehow or other always remembers the Supreme Personality of Godhead anywhere and everywhere, Lord Hari takes away life’s four miserable conditions.
Read Śrīla Prabhupāda's purport on Vedabase.ioThree study points drawn from the translation and purport.
When a devotee always remembers the Supreme Personality of Godhead anywhere and everywhere, Lord Hari takes away life’s four miserable conditions.
These conditions arise from four kinds of sinful activities: pātaka, uru-pātaka, mahā-pātaka and ati-pātaka. The four basic sinful activities are summarized as illicit sex, intoxication, gambling and meat-eating.
Kṛṣṇa assures the devotee of protection from all sinful reactions. By surrendering to His lotus feet, the devotee is relieved of sinful activities and their results.

Intellectual wonder humbled. Many explanations converge on the attractiveness of devotion; a hunter’s heart is transformed.
