Mother’s Protection

The valorous protection bestowed by Gouri

To her son while proceeding to subdue demon Taraka

The great protection bestowed by mother to Bhargava

While proceeding to kill the demon Shanka

The sacred protection bestowed by Vinatha

To Garuda, her son, while proceeding to redeem her from slavery

The sacred protection bestowed by the mother to Sri Rama

While proceeding to protect Yajna upon father’s command

The protection bestowed by Sai

While devotees return to their places

That is a great auspicious protection

The protection of the body

May this foremost blessing

Protect you at all times.

The compassionate Lord of Parthi

Will protect you always.

He will uphold His devotees

At all times.

Poem written in Telugu by Bhagawan.
