CHAPTER 16
The Yog of Telling
The Devine From the Demoniacal

आत्मसंभाविता: स्तब्धा धनमानमदान्विता:।
यजन्ते नामयज्ञैस्ते दम्भेनाविधिपूर्वकम् ॥17॥

[ “These conceited persons, intoxicated by vanity and wealth, offer ostentatious sacrifices which are yagya only in name, in violation of scriptural injunction.’’ ]

Rendered arrogant and senseless by wealth and worldly honour, these persons perform ceremonies and sacrificial rites which are only nominally yagya, and sacrilegious to boot. They do not observe the mode of worship laid down by Yogeshwar Krishn in verses 24-33 and 1017 of the fourth and sixth chapters respectively.
