Oh DEVA DEVA – Lord of Lords! I surrender unto you everything including self!
AS you accepted the offerings from King MAHABALI when you were in the form of VAMANA the dwarf;
As you accepted the AGRYAPUJA in the RAJASUYA YAGA performed by YUDHISHTIRA;
Having offered you myself, it is your duty to protect me, since it is the duty of anyone to protect what is offered to him.
Oh PADMANABHA! As your humble servant I beseech you to accept whatever you may feel fit as offerings from me!
