Verse 46

⁴⁶Demons, let it be worked out here how much good there is for one who carries a body and is put to pain by his works through every state, from the sowing of the seed onward. ⁴⁷The one in the body begins works with a body that follows upon the self, and by works he stretches out a body again. Both come of not discerning. ⁴⁸So worship without striving the self, Hari the Lord, who himself does not strive, and on whom wealth and desires and dharma all rest. ⁴⁹Hari is the self, the Lord, the dear one of all beings; and in beings put together out of the great elements that he himself made, he goes by the name of the living one.

⁵⁰A god, an antigod, a man, a yaksa or a gandharva: whoever serves the feet of Mukunda comes to his own good, as we have. ⁵¹Sons of the demons, being twice-born, being a god, being a sage is not enough to please Mukunda; and neither is good conduct, nor knowing a great deal; ⁵²nor giving, nor austerity, nor sacrifice, nor cleanness, nor vows. Hari is pleased by spotless devotion; everything else is mimicry.
