Tasmãt Maccharanam Goshtam Mannãtham Matparigraham |
Gopãye Svãtmayogena Soyam Me Vrata Ãhita ||
Krishna says,
"I protect those who have surrendered unto me and look upon me
as their Lord. This is my vrata(vow)."
Saying thus, Krishna lifted the Govardhana and safeguarded his
beloved Gopas from Indra's wrath.
