Verse 21

²¹So put away by your wish to know the confusion of manyness in the self, and setting your mind, now clean of dust, on me who am everywhere, come to rest. ²²If you cannot hold the mind unmoving on Brahman, then do all your works for me and expect nothing from them. ²³Trusting, he hears my stories, which bring good and make the worlds clean; he sings them and calls them to mind, and acts out my deeds and my birth again and again; ²⁴and carrying out dharma and desire and gain for my sake, and taking his shelter in me, Uddhava, he comes to an unshaken devotion to me, who am from everlasting. ²⁵Waiting on me in me with a devotion got in the company of the true, he comes without trouble to that place of mine which the good have shown him.
