When the pope puts his soul in Mary's hands and beseaches her to secure for him his salvation

He asks her to pray for him, not to secure for him his salvation, that can only be done by God. We human beings ask other humans living or dead to help us try to come near achieving the perfection that is Christ

I'll see if I can post the quote later. He asks for her to secure his salvation.

"To you mother of the human family and of nations we confidently entrust the whole of humanity with
it's hopes and fears. Do not let it lack the light of true wisdom. Guide it's steps in the ways
of peace. Enable all to meet Christ. Sustain us oh virgin mary on our journey of faith and
obtain for us the grace of eternal salvation" - Pope John Paul II - "Prayer for the Marian year"
