162 Srimad-Bhagavatam [Canto 6, Ch. 3

in Bhagavad-gita (kaunteya pratijanihi na me bhaktah pranasyati). Ma-
terial danger is not meant for devotees. This is also confirmed in Srimad-
Bhagavatam. Padarh padam yad vipadam na tesam: in this material
world there are dangers at every step, but they are not meant for devo-
tees who have fully surrendered unto the lotus feet of the Lord. The pure
devotees of Lord Visnu may rest assured of the Lord’s protection, and as
long as they are in this material world they should fully engage in devo-
tional service by preaching the cult of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and
Lord Krsna, namely the Hare Krsna movement of Krsna consciousness.
