The Bhakta holds the Lord dearer to him than life; and the Lord too is attached to him in equal measure. The Lord declared that He was always on the side of His Bhakta, and that He will never give up the devotee who relies on Him as his only refuge. ‘I follow the Bhakta as the calf follows the cow, for he gives up for Me, all that is considered desirable by the worldly-minded’. (DhyV, p. 73)

Take refuge in the Almighty God who resides in your heart. Surrender yourself entirely to Him and you will gain inexhaustible strength for overcoming the passions, Kama and Krodha that assail you. Feel always that you are in His hands and therefore always safe. With the weapon of God - remembrance with you, you can dwell in the very midst of temptation and remain unaffected. By constant practice, keep your mind ever turned to the infinite Truth. (SV90, p. Front Inside Cover)
