A touchstone can turn any metal to gold any where by simply touching it. Just like that, getting a chance to touch the feet of Lord Krishna will purify you completely.

मनुस्मृति - धर्म


नाऽधर्मश्चरितो लोके सद्यः फलति गौरिव ।
शनैरावर्तमानस्तु कर्तुर्मूलानि कृंतति ॥


- मनुस्मृति


The results of the deeds of cruelty (against dharma the code of life) are not immediately apparent unlike the benefits of domesticating a cow (you get milk on day one). Slowly the effects of mis-deeds surround the doer and cut the very roots of the source. Perpetrating cruelty will always end in the destruction of the culprit.

- Manu Smriti
