Krsna Bhakti Vina Kabhu lyrics

kṛṣṇa-bhakti vinā kabhu nāhi phalodoy miche sab dharmādharma jīver upādhimoy

krsna-bhakti vina kabhu nahi phalodoy miche sab dharmadharma jiver upadhimoy

कृष्णभक्ति विना कभु नाहि फलोदोय मिछे सब धर्माधर्म जीवेर उपाधिमोय

There is no profit in a life devoid of devotional service to Krsna. Therefore all the so-called religiosity and irreligiosity of a living being who is bewildered by false worldly designations is simply useless.

yoga-yāga-tapo-dhyān, sannyāsādi brahma-jñān, nānā-kāṇḍa-rūpe jīver bandhana-kāraṇa hoy

yoga-yaga-tapo-dhyan, sannyasadi brahma-jnan, nana-kanda-rupe jiver bandhana-karana hoy

योगयागतपोध्यान्, सन्न्यासादि ब्रह्मज्ञान्, नानाकाण्डरूपे जीवेर बन्धनकारण होय

Mysticism, performance of Vedic sacrifices, severe austerities, meditation, renunciation of the world, and cultivating knowledge of the impersonal Brahman-although appearing in the forms of various spiritual paths-are all causes of the soul's further bondage to this world.

vinoder vākya dharo, nānā kānḍa tyāg koro, nirupādhi kṛṣṇa-preme hṛdoye deho āśroy

vinoder vakya dharo, nana kanda tyag koro, nirupadhi krsna-preme hrdoye deho asroy

विनोदेर वाक्य धरो, नाना कान्ड त्याग कोरो, निरुपाधि कृष्णप्रेमे हृदोये देहो आश्रोय

Please heed this advice of Bhaktivinoda: Give up all these various paths, and just keep pure love of Krsna sheltered within your heart, for this alone is transcendental to all mundane designations.
