Shri Purohit Swami

उन-उन कामनाओंसे जिनका ज्ञान अपहृत हो गया है, ऐसे वे मनुष्य अपनी-अपनी प्रकृतिसे नियन्त्रित होकर (देवताओंके) उन-उन नियमोंको धारण करते हुए उन-उन देवताओंके शरण हो जाते हैं।

Swami Ramsukhdas

भोगविशेष की कामना से जिनका ज्ञान हर लिया गया है, ऐसे पुरुष अपने स्वभाव से प्रेरित हुए अन्य देवताओं को विशिष्ट नियम का पालन करते हुए भजते हैं।
