178 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 10, Ch. 2
tatra Srir vijayo bhitir
dhruva nitir matir mama
(Bg. 18.78)
Wherever there is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, and His
devotee Arjuna, Partha, there is victory, opulence, extraordinary power
and morality. The opulences of a devotee are not a result of karma-
kanda-vicara. A devotee is always protected by all of the Supreme Lord’s
opulences, of which no one can deprive him (tesam nityabhiyuktanam
yoga-ksemam vahamy aham). Thus a devotee cannot be defeated by any
opponents. A devotee, therefore, should not deviate knowingly from the
path of devotion. The adherent devotee is assured all protection from the
Supreme Personality of Godhead.
