Krishna will always protect!

SB 2.6.7 (HG Rohinipriya Prji):

* The Lord is equally disposed to all living entities for giving shelter. However for devotees He reciprocates in a very special way.
* That is why the forward steps of the Lord are so very important.
* Psychologically too, forward steps means some gain is there for us.
* 2 points in the purport
 - absolute protection
 - one should not have any kind of fear in this matter
* Absolute protection
 - very imp for those who have taken up to spiritual emancipation or KC
 - living entity is marginal, so to get protection, we should take use free will completely in the right direction
 - cause small margin of error will lead to birth again
 - so absolute protection from all sorts of fear comes
 - "My dear Lord, I'm yours" a message from Ramayana. This means 100% I am yours Lord
 - this allows us to access the greatest benediction (abhayam)
 - protection from everything, all other living entities is given by the Lord then
* 2 types of fear
 - fear of losing something
 - fear of forgetting the SPG, this is more tough
* The Lord says that this is my fixed vow: u surrender and I will surely protect.
* 2nd part in the purport
 - understanding the nature of the living entity, SP is forwarning us
 - we should have complete confidence that one can be happy in the shelter of the Lord
 - efforts of the living entity and mercy of the lord work together
 - one's facility to execute one's independence is given by the Lord Himself, so one should not forget that even
that comes from the Lord. So we are dependent on His mercy
 - one way to show is to do our part
 - conditioned state always brings a doubt, therefore Arjuna addresses Krishna as madhusudana, the remover of all doubts
 - SP is saying no one should have any doubts in this matter that Krishna will always protect
