FAQs
This verse says their hearts do not seek any result apart from Kṛṣṇa Himself; for them He is everything—home, wealth, friend, beloved, self, child, life, and refuge—showing the pinnacle of exclusive devotion (ananya-bhakti).
Brahmā highlights Kṛṣṇa’s astonishing mercy: even Pūtanā, who came with harmful intent, attained a motherly position by His acceptance—so the reward for the loving Vrajavāsīs is beyond measure.
Make devotion single-pointed: instead of chasing many “fruits” (status, control, recognition), center life on remembrance and service to God as the primary goal and shelter.
