    Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam Canto 10 Chapter 46 Text 4


    tā man-manaskā mat-prāṇā
    mat-arthe tyakta-daihikāḥ
    mām eva dayitaṁ preṣṭham
    ātmānaṁ manasā gatāḥ
    ye tyakta-loka-dharmāś ca
    mad-arthe tān bibharmy aham

     

    TRANSLATION

    The minds of those gopīs are always absorbed in Me, and their very lives are ever devoted to Me. For My sake they have abandoned everything related to their bodies, renouncing ordinary happiness in this life, as well as religious duties necessary for such happiness in the next life. I alone am their dearmost beloved and, indeed, their very Self. I personally sustain such devotees, who for My sake give up all worldly duties.
