You have said "Ask for a benediction." I answer with this verse. Those who are akincana pray for bhakti. More worthy of prayer is prema. Most worthy of prayer is to serve your lotus feet. Thus I do not want liberation, what to speak of any other boon. Here apavarga da, referring to the Lord, means he who gives bhakti yoga. , as in the use of the word in the fifth canto of bhagavatam. Can an intelligent person after worshipping you who gives bhakti, accept boons which bind him to the word, even if you give them? Another meaning can be: even one who worships and gets liberation from you, if he is intelligent, can he accept your boons which create bondage to the world again? What to speak then of the devotee.

I do not desire anything for getting blessings other than service to your lotus feet, by direct engagements. I desire only that. Why? It is desired by the devotees who regard even liberation as insignificant (akiṣcana). They pray for bhakti. More than that, they pray to see you. And more than that, they pray for service to your lotus feet. It is greater than all other human goals. He calls out for qualification. O powerful lord, capable of bestowing happiness of all human goals (vibho)! Worshipping or attaining you (ārādhya), who gives bhakti (apavarga), what person would accept bondage? Apavarga means bhakti as in the following: apavargaś cāpi bhavati yo 'sau bhagavati sarva-bhūtātmany anātmye 'nirukte 'nilayane paramātmani vāsudeve 'nanya-nimitta-bhakti-yoga-lakṣaṇo nānā-gati-nimittāvidyā-granthi-randhana-dvāreṇa yadā hi mahā-puruṣa-puruṣa-prasaṅgaḥ. That liberation, whose essential nature is unmotivated bhakti-yoga to the Lord full of qualities, who attracts the minds of all beings, who is not the object of merging, who is not described by material words, who remains beyond destruction of the universe, who is the most excellent ātmā, who is the son of Vasudeva, takes place by destruction of the knot of ignorance which causes various material goals, when there is association with devotees of the Lord. SB 5.19.19-20 Or apavarga means liberation. Why do you not accept liberation? Worshipping or serving you who are permanent with some affection, what person can accept a benediction which gives mere liberation? Accepting that benediction is a cause of bondage.
