Stotra Path (स्तोत्र पाठ)
॥ श्री कृष्ण गायत्री मन्त्रः ॥
॥ ध्यानम् ॥
कस्तूरीतिलकं ललाटपटले वक्षःस्थले कौस्तुभं
नासाग्रे वरमौक्तिकं करतले वेणुं करे कङ्कणम्।
सर्वाङ्गे हरिचन्दनं सुललितं कण्ठे च मुक्तावलिं
गोपस्त्रीपरिवेष्टितो विजयते गोपालचूडामणिः॥
वंशीविभूषितकराद् रणवट् स्थितात्
शरच्चन्द्रिकाप्रकाशमानमुखात्।
नीलाम्बुदश्यामतनोः पीतवस्त्रात्
कृष्णं भजामि मनसा कमलायताक्षम्॥

ॐ देवकीनन्दनाय विद्महे
