This is one of my favorite verses.

  dhruva uvAca

  yo 'ntah pravisya mama vAcam imAm prasuptam
    sanjivayaty akhila-Sakti-dharah sva-dhAmnA |
  anyamS ca hasta-caraNa-sravana-tvag-AdIn
    prANAn namo bhagavate purushAya tubhyam ||

  Entering within me you have awakened my speech
  and enlivened all my senses and energy -- my
  hands, feet, ears, sense of touch, and my life
  breaths -- by your presence. Salutations to
  you, O Supreme Person!



Incidentally, mani that is exactly why I listen to KrishnaPremi bhagavatam
which is par excellence and probably unmatched. 4 years back In July 98, I
got so affected by bhagavatam that I conducted a bhagavata saptaham in san
diego - not that I know anything but I could not contain the krishnabhakti
inside me - my first attempt. bhagavatam can simply floor you. But watch
out. You may turn into a recluse or a Monk! that is how much it affects me.
My wife's pastime is to listen to krishnapremi bhagavatam while she drives
and cry on the way to business meetings!
