In Vraja-vilasa-stava, text 1, Srila Raghunath Das Goswami has compared our spiritual pursuits to traveling on a road where one is beset with thieves. Raghunath Das says that our only hope is to call out to the swanlike devotees of the Lord.

 

pratistha-rajjubhir baddham kamadyair vartma-pattibhih

chitva tah samharantas tan aghareh pantu mam bhatah

 

"The highwaymen of lust, greed, and anger have captured me and bound me with the ropes of the desire for fame.

I pray that the heroic devotees of Lord Krishna, the enemy of the Agha demon, may defeat my captors and cut the ropes that bind me."
