It teaches that when divine forces become unbearable, the safest and highest remedy is śaraṇāgati—taking exclusive refuge in Lord Hari, who grants peace and auspiciousness.
They acknowledge that the Lord’s power (described here as an unbearable weapon) cannot be countered even by exalted beings, so the proper course is to surrender to Him rather than resist.
When facing situations beyond one’s control, cultivate humility and devotional dependence—pray, remember Hari, and act dharmically, trusting that the Lord can arrange welfare and inner peace.
