(1) O venerable Vaiṣṇava Ṭhākura, O ocean of mercy, be merciful to this servant of yours and purify me with the shade of your lotus feet. Your lotus feet I humbly hold.
(2) By helping me control the six urges and purifying me of the six faults, bestow upon your servant the six good qualities. O master, please give me the six kinds of holy association. I have sat down here hoping to have your company.*
(3) Alone, I do not find the strength to chant the holy name of Hari. Please be merciful and, blessing me with a drop of faith, bestow on me the great treasure of the holy name of Krsna.
(4) Kṛṣṇa is yours, and you can give Him to me, for such is your power. This wretch is simply running behind you, crying out, “Krsna! Krsna!”*The six passions are those pertaining to words, the mind, anger, the tongue, the stomach and the genitals. The six faults are overeating, attachment to material things, inability to follow regulative principles, sense gratification, useless idle talk, and impure habits. The six positive qualities are enthusiasm in practicing devotional service, firm faith in devotional processes, a strong desire to attain prema-bhakti, a favorable service attitude, avoidance of non-devotees, and appreciation of the company of devotees. The six methods of association are to go to an assembly of devotees, to invite devotees into one's home, to discuss and hear devotional topics, to take the mahā-prasāda of devotees and to offer mahā-prasāda to devotees.
