( My Child!                 This Sacred Mantra Kavacha is indeed unique and its impact is everlasting; the Ten worded                  Mantra viz. Gopijana Valaabhaaya Swaaha is the bestower of Bhakti and Mukti. The Rishi of                this Mantra is Parama Shiva himself; its chhanda or prosody is ‘Pankti’; its Devata is Krishna; its Viniyoga or applicability is Universal; the Trailokya Vijaya Mantra Kavacha’s Rishi is Prajapati; Chhandas is Jagati;  the letters are twelve; the Devata is Rajeswara : this is the Introductory                    ‘Nyaasa’. Now the text of the Mantra is as follows: Om Krishnaaya namah: may Shiva protect me; Krishnaaya swaaha Mama Taarakaam Harye namah; Hey Krishna paatumey Netrey Krishnaaya                   swaahaa/ Mama taarakam paatu; Haraye namah Bhrulaatam paatu; Govindaya swaha Mama                   Naasikaam satatam paatu; Gopaalaaya namah mama gandam (Chin) paatu; Kleem Krishnaaya                      namah mama karney Kalpataruh paatu; Om Krishnaaya namah Adhara yugmam paatu (Lips);                    Om Gopeeshaaya! Do protect my teeth; Krishnaaya swaahaa-Jihvam (tongue) paatu; Radhi-       kesshaaya! Do safeguard my throat ;  Gopi ganeshaaya save my neck; Kishora Veshaaya, guard                     my shoulders; Mukunda watch my back; Hreem, Shreem, Kleem Krishnaaya safeguard my                          Udara (belly); and Vishnavey namah please my hands! Bhagavatey! Save my nail-lines; Namo      Narayana, do  protect my nail-holes; Padmanabha please secure my naabhi (navel); Sarvesa, my                hairs and  Krishna help my ‘Brahmarandhra’ to be safe; Madhava do take care of my forehead;                Rasika! Save  my kati (waist); Gopijanesha, protect my thighs; Daityanaasha my knees! Yashoda                Nanda, my jangha (calf)! Rasaarambha my Avatu (sense of shame); Vrinda! My Sakalaangaas!            The Kavacha then requests Krishna to protect my Praachya or East; Golokanaatha my Agneya                    ( South East); Brahma Swarupa the Dakshina (South), Krishna my Nairutyaam (South West);                        Hari! My Paschima ( West); Govinda! My Vayavya (North West); Rasikeshwara! My Uttara                     (North); Brindavana Vihara! Do protect my Urthwa Deshas; Bali Dhwamsi! Safeguard my from                        Adholokaas (Nether Lokas); Nrisimha save me from Jala, Sthala and Antariksha; and Madhava!       Kindly save me while I am in Jaagriti (awake) or in Swapna (dreams). Vasishta Muni assured                     that sincere recitation of the Kavacha would definitely bestow Puja Phala, Yagna Phala, Daana                    Phala, Bhu Pradakshina Phala, Sarva Tirtha Phala, Karya Sadhana Phala, Vijaya Phala, Siddhatva                 and  Amaratwa!
