"Brink" means an extreme edge of land before a steep or vertical slope; a point at which something, typically something unwelcome, is about to happen. The verge. It reminds me of,

samāśritā ye pada-pallava-plavaṁ

mahat-padaṁ puṇya-yaśo murāreḥ

bhavāmbudhir vatsa-padaṁ paraṁ padaṁ

padaṁ padaṁ yad vipadāṁ na teṣām

(ŚB 10.14.58)

which is, you could say, paraphrasing, "Don't stay on the brink, the vipadām. Come back under the shelter constantly and just be under Kṛṣṇa's protection.
