न योगेन न सांख्येन न चाडम्बरकर्मभिः |
प्रीयतेsमलया भक्त्या रसिकेन्द्रो हरिः प्रभुः ||
हरिभक्तिरसाम्भोधौ क्रीडतां तु महात्मनाम् |
यशसा किं धनेनापि सिद्धिभिः किञ्च मुक्तिभिः ||
एष एव परो लाभो मर्त्यानामल्पजीविनाम् |
यद्यस्ति हरिपादाब्जे दृढनिष्ठा परा रतिः ||
Roopalal said
Shri Krishna, the Lord of all rasikas can not be propitiated with yogic power, life as a sanyasi or luxurious religious rites. He gets pleased with pious devotion alone. What benefit do such great men who swim in the joyous ocean of devotion to Lord Hari, have out of fame, wealth, siddhi or salvation? If devotion to Lord Hari sprouts in the hearts of the frail and mortal men, that is the only gain they can think of.
