Chapter-7 Adhyātma Yogaḥ

sa tayā śraddhayā yuktas tasyārādhanam īhate | labhate ca tataḥ kāmān mayaiva vihitān hi tān || 22 || 22. Endowed with that faith, one engages in the worship of that [particular] manifestation and thence obtains the desired objects, which are in fact bestowed by Me alone. antavattu phalaṃ teṣāṃ tad bhavaty-alpa medhasām | devān devayajo yānti mad-bhaktā yānti mām api || 23 || 23. But verily the reward gained by these persons of limited understanding is finite. The worshippers of the gods will go to the gods but My devotees will come to Me. Commentary “The results obtained by their worship is trivial and limited. Why? The devotees of devas like Indra go to them; and Indra and other devas possess limited joy and are conditioned by time and space. So if they attain equality of enjoyment with them, they also fall down along with them in due course. But My devotees, fully mindful of the fact that all their acts are being done as worship of Me, renouncing attachment for finite rewards, and acting in order to please Me alone, reach Me. That is, they never again return to the cycle of transmigration [Samsara].
