Let the Lord, who is the deliverer of the saintly persons and inaugurator of Vedic religious principles in the form of chanting the holy names of the Lord, be profusely glorified. Nondevotees follow godless religious principles, which are contrary to Vedic principles. Let Śrī Gaurahari, who is the original life all living entities in the visible world, from Brahmā to the inanimate beings, be profusely glorified.
