3. Translation O my Lord, Çré Kåñëa, son of Vasudeva, O all-pervading Personality of Godhead, I offer my respectful obeisances unto You. I meditate upon Lord Çré Kåñëa because He is the Absolute Truth and the primeval cause of all causes of the creation, sustenance and destruction of the manifested universes. He is directly and indirectly conscious of all manifestations, and He is independent because there is no other cause beyond Him. It is He only who first imparted the Vedic knowledge unto the heart of Brahmäjé, the original living being. By Him even the great sages and demigods are placed into illusion, as one is bewildered by the illusory representations of water seen in fire, or land seen on water. Only because of Him do the material universes, temporarily manifested by the reactions of the three modes of nature, appear factual, although they are unreal. I therefore meditate upon Him, Lord Çré Kåñëa, who is eternally existent in the transcendental abode, which is forever free from the illusory representations of the material world. I meditate upon Him, for He is the Absolute Truth.

4. satyaà paraà dhémahi “ I meditate upon Him, for He is the Absolute Truth.”

5. Supreme Absolute Truth Krsna is the Supreme Absolute Truth and all other Vishnu forms are His expansions, “näräyaëas tvaà na hi sarva-dehinäm ätmäsy adhéçäkhila-loka-säkñé ätmäsy adhéçäkhila-loka-säkñé näräyaëo ’ìgaà nara-bhü-jaläyanät näräyaëo ’ìgaà nara-bhü-jaläyanät tac cäpi satyaà na tavaiva mäyä” “O Lord of lords, You are the seer of all creation. You are indeed everyone’s dearest life. Are You not, therefore, my father, Näräyaëa? Näräyaëa refers to one whose abode is in the water born from Nara [Garbhodakaçäyé Viñëu], and that Näräyaëa is Your plenary portion. All Your plenary portions are transcendental. They are absolute and are not creations of mäyä.” [S.B.10.14.14] tac cäpi satyaà na tavaiva mäyä” “O Lord of lords, You are the seer of all creation. You are indeed everyone’s dearest life. Are You not, therefore, my father, Näräyaëa? Näräyaëa refers to one whose abode is in the water born from Nara [Garbhodakaçäyé Viñëu], and that Näräyaëa is Your plenary portion. All Your plenary portions are transcendental. They are absolute and are not creations of mäyä.” [S.B.10.14.14]

6. Meditation on Supreme “yena kena prakarena, manah…” Hearing Bhagavad-Gitya and Srimad- Bhagavatam is easiest way to fix mind on Krsna. Learn from lives of devotees, how to fix mind on Krsna. Bg. “catur vidha bhajante mam…”

7. Meditation on Supreme Seeking relief from material miseries. E.g. Gajendra Inquisitive Seeking some material benefit, e.g. Dhruva Seeking knowledge. All become pure devotees if continue to meditate on Krsna even after their motives fulfilled.
