Brahmā’s Prayers to Lord Kṛṣṇa (Brahmā-stuti) and the Restoration of Vraja’s Lunch Pastime
पुरेह भूमन् बहवोऽपि योगिन- स्त्वदर्पितेहा निजकर्मलब्धया । विबुध्य भक्त्यैव कथोपनीतया प्रपेदिरेऽञ्जोऽच्युत ते गतिं पराम् ॥ ५ ॥
pureha bhūman bahavo ’pi yoginas tvad-arpitehā nija-karma-labdhayā vibudhya bhaktyaiva kathopanītayā prapedire ’ñjo ’cyuta te gatiṁ parām
全能の主よ。昔この世で多くのヨーギーたちは、あらゆる営みをあなたの御足に捧げ、定められた務めを誠実に果たすことでバクティ（献身奉仕）の境地に至りました。あなたについて聞き、御名と栄光を歌うことによって完成したそのバクティにより、彼らはあなたを悟り、ああ不落のアチュタよ、容易に帰依してあなたの至高の住処に到達しました。
FAQs
This verse says that many seekers attained the supreme destination by offering their efforts to Kṛṣṇa, accepting the results of their work, and awakening bhakti through hearing narrations (Hari-kathā) that lead to Him.
After witnessing Kṛṣṇa’s inconceivable power in Vraja, Brahmā offers prayers admitting the limits of mere yogic attainment and glorifying bhakti—especially devotion awakened by hearing Kṛṣṇa’s pastimes and teachings.
Do your duties responsibly, offer the work and its outcomes to Kṛṣṇa in prayer, accept results without bitterness or pride, and regularly hear or read Bhagavatam/Hari-kathā to keep devotion alive.
