सर्वधर्मान्परित्यज्य मामेकं शरणं व्रज । अहं त्वा सर्वपापेभ्यो मोक्षयिष्यामि मा शुचः ॥

sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja, ahaṁ tvā sarva-pāpebhyo mokṣayiṣyāmi mā śucaḥ

Meaning

"Let go of every other burden and turn to me alone for refuge; I will free you from all sorrow — do not grieve."

Benefits

Deep reassurance, release from fear and guilt
