Lord Krishna is the ultimate shelter

annaḿ hi prāṇināḿ prāṇa
ārtānāḿ śaraṇaḿ tv aham
dharmo vittaḿ nṛṇāḿ pretya
santo 'rvāg bibhyato 'raṇam 
(Śrīmad Bhāgavatam 11.26.33)

Just as food is the life of all creatures, just as I am the ultimate shelter for the distressed, and just as religion is the wealth of those who are passing away from this world, so My devotees are the only refuge of persons fearful of falling into a miserable condition of life.

Those fearful of being dragged down by material lust and anger should take shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord's devotees, who can engage one safely in the Lord's loving service.
