The great saint Sri Madhavendra Puri has stated :

 

sandhya-vandana bhadram astu bhavato bhoh snana tubhyam namo

bho devah pitarash ca tarpana-vidhau naham kshamah kshamyatam

yatra kvapi nisadya yadava-kulottamasya kamsa-dvishah

smaram smaram agham harami tad alam manye kim anyena me

 

"O my evening prayer, all good unto you. O my morning bath, I bid you good-bye. O demigods and forefathers, please excuse me. I am unable to perform any more offerings for your pleasure. Now I have decided to free myself from all reactions to sins simply by remembering anywhere and everywhere the great descendant of Yadu and the great enemy of Kamsa [Lord Krishna]. I think that this is sufficient for me. So what is the use of further endeavors?"

 

mugdham mam nigadantu niti-nipuna bhrantam muhur vaidikah

mandam bandhava-sancaya jada-dhiyam muktadarah sodarah

unmattam dhanino viveka-caturah kamam maha-dambhikam

moktum na kshamate manag api mano govinda-.-spriham

 

"Let the sharp moralist accuse me of being illusioned; I do not mind. Experts in Vedic activities may slander me as being misled, friends and relatives may call me frustrated, my brothers may call me a fool, the wealthy mammonites may point me out as mad, and the learned philosophers may assert that I am much too proud; still my mind does not budge an inch from the determination to serve the lotus feet of Govinda, though I be unable to do it."
