- कृष्ण गोविन्द हे राम नारायण श्रीपते वासुदेवाजित श्रीनिधे । अच्युतानन्त हे माधवाधोक्षज द्वारकानायक द्रौपदीरक्षक ॥४॥
- O Krishna, Govinda, Rama, Narayana, lord of Sri, Vasudeva, Ajita, treasure of Sri, Achyuta, Ananta, Madhava, Adhokshaja, lord of Dvaraka, protector of Draupadi.
Each name addressed is a doorway to the same limitless Lord who protects the surrendered soul. In Advaita, calling upon Krishna as protector of Draupadi affirms that the Self alone is refuge when the world offers no shelter.
