Verse 89

Tap any word for its meaning.

। ॥ ८९ ॥

In plain words

Prostrations, hymns of praise — they do not please you, Lord; nor the correct rites of worship, nor meditation, nor the deepest absorption. A bow, a pestle, a shower of stones — tell me what actually delights you, and I will do exactly that.

By prostrations, by praises, O Lord, you are not pleased, nor by the procedures of worship, nor by meditation and absorption; but by a bow, by a pestle, and by stones, or — tell what is pleasing to you, and so I will do.
