Translation
The yogīs should contemplate with full devotion the compassionate glances frequently cast by the Lord’s eyes, for they soothe the most fearful threefold agonies of His devotees. His glances, accompanied by loving smiles, are full of abundant grace.
Translation (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
One should meditate for a long time with deep love in the heart on the glance of the Lord, cast from his eyes to dispel the three terrible miseries, and which smiles with affection, continually multiplying with great mercy.
One should meditate on the Lord’s glance made by his two eyes to relieve the meditator of the three frightful miseries. One should meditate on the Lord’s glance which smiles affectionately, representing all the sweetness of the Lord, which first doubles, then triple, and final multiples millions and millions times.
Purport
As long as one is in conditional life, in the material body, it is natural that he will suffer from anxieties and agonies. One cannot avoid the influence of material energy, even when one is on the transcendental plane. Sometimes disturbances come, but the agonies and anxieties of the devotees are at once mitigated when they think of the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His beautiful form or the smiling face of the Lord. The Lord bestows innumerable favors upon His devotee, and the greatest manifestation of His grace is His smiling face, which is full of compassion for His pure devotees.
