'''[[SB 2.4.17]]'''

tapasvino dāna-parā yaśasvino<br>
manasvino mantra-vidaḥ sumaṅgalāḥ<br>
kṣemaṁ na vindanti vinā yad-arpaṇaṁ<br>
tasmai subhadra-śravase namo namaḥ<br>


'''Let me offer my respectful obeisances unto the all-auspicious Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa again and again because the great learned sages, the great performers of charity, the great workers of distinction, the great philosophers and mystics, the great chanters of the Vedic hymns and the great followers of Vedic principles cannot achieve any fruitful result without dedication of such great qualities to the service of the Lord.'''
