In all your actions, depend only on Me, and always place yourself under My protection. Perform this devotional service in full awareness of My Person.
If you become aware of me, all the obstacles of conditioned existence will be overcome by my grace. If, however, you act not out of such awareness, but out of false ego, closing your ears to me, you will be lost.
If you do not act according to my directions, if you refuse to fight, then you will be led astray. And, by your nature, you will still have to fight.
Under the influence of illusion, you now refuse to act according to my instructions. But, compelled by your own nature, you must do the same.
The Supreme Lord resides in the hearts of all beings, and directs their wanderings, each of whom is as if on a machine, composed of material energy.
Surrender yourself entirely to me. By my grace, you will know absolute peace, and you will attain the eternal and supreme abode.
Thus, have I revealed to you the most secret of knowledge. Think carefully, then do as you please.
Listen to my words, for I speak them for your good.
If I reveal this most secret part of knowledge to you, it is because you are my dearest friend. Listen to my words, for I speak them for your good.
Always fill your mind with me, and become my devotee, offer me your homage, vow your adoration to me, and you will come to me. This I promise you, for you are my friend, infinitely dear.
Leave all other forms of religion there, and simply surrender yourself to me. I will free you from all the consequences of your sins. Have no fear.
This secret knowledge cannot be revealed to men who are neither austere, nor devoted, nor engaged in devotional service, nor who envy me.
For whoever teaches this supreme secret to my devotees, progress in devotional service is assured, and, in the end, without a doubt, he will return to me.
None of my servants in this world is dearer to me than he, and no one will ever be dearer to me.
And I proclaim that whoever studies this sacred conversation of ours will worship me with his understanding.
As for whoever listens to it with faith, without envy, he will free himself from the consequences of his sinful actions and reach the planets where the virtuous live.
