When we think now there is no hope of anything and now everything is finished in my life. Then that time we must try to take shelter of Lotus feet of Krishna and Krishna is definitely going to show us the way and give us full assurance to protect us from the dangers of this material world.
We can not protect ourselves from the danger of this material world whatever plan we made, one problem we solve another will be ready, so in this scenario we must think if we want full protection we must remember Krishna.
Here I am going to share you incident of Gajendra.
There was once an elephant named Gajendra who used to live in a forest Rtumata which was created by Varuna. This garden was situated in the beautiful mountains of Trikuta in ancient India. Gajendra ruled over all the other elephants in the herd. On a hot day, he proceeded with his herd to a lake to cool off in its fresh waters. Suddenly a crocodile living in the lake attacked Gajendra and caught him by the leg. Gajendra tried for a long time to escape from the crocodile's clutches.
All his family, relatives and friends gathered around to help him, but in vain. The crocodile wouldn't simply let go. When they realized that death has come close to Gajendra, they left him alone.
Gajendra trumpeted in pain and helplessness until he was hoarse. As the struggle was seemingly endless and when the last drop of energy was also sapped, Gajendra called to Lord Vishnu to save him, holding a lotus up in the air as an offering. It is believed that Gajendra's foot was held by the crocodile for over a thousand of years.
Hearing the Gajendra call Lord Vishnu rushed and ordered Sudarshna Chakra to cut the head of Crocodile. In this way Gajendra protected by Lord Vishnu although he lost his hope there is no chance of my life.
In the previous birth Gajendra was a pure devotee of Lord named Indradyumna but due to disrespect to the great Sage Agastya, he was cursed and had to undergo this life.
So, Don't lose your hope there is last chance to remember Krishna and be hundred percent sure Krishna is going to help you as He has already declared in Bhagwad Gita Chapter 9.31.
क्षिप्रं à¤à¤µà¤¤ि धर्मात्मा शश्वच्छान्तिं निगच्छति ।
कौन्तेय प्रतिजानीहि न मे à¤à¤•्त: प्रणश्यति ॥ 9.31 ॥
He quickly becomes righteous and attains lasting peace. O son of Kuntī, declare it boldly that My devotee never perishes.
