Phala Sruthi
Ya padeth sathatham  sthavanam nara –sa thu hare paramam padamaavrajeth,
Jagadhi sarva balam thwari  mardanam –bhavathi thasya dhanam swajanam dhanam

Ithi Sri Garga samhithaayaam Bala Badra khande Bala Bhadra   sthava raja   sampoornam.

Results of reading it
If man reads this    always ,
He    would march towards      the feet of Lord Hari,
He would get all strength in the world to fight   with his enemies,
He would  have all the wealth of his people as his.

Thus ends     the king of prayers addressed    to Bala Rama ,
Which occurs in  Garga Samhitha   in the chapter  on Bala Bhadra.
