Damodarashtakam verse 2 line 4_ Prayer for better chanting

Podcast: Video:

My coming closer to you my dear Lord you are bound by the love of your devotees and thus you are celebrated as Damodar who just lets himself be conquered by love may my heart be conquered by you by the vision of you as a God not of power but as a God of love the God who hungers so much for love that he lets his supreme position be subordinated so that love can reign supreme in your abode my dear Lord let me see surrender to you not as a loss of my independence but as the ultimate triumph of my longing for love by uniting it eternally with the one who is the supreme object of love.
