Chapter 9<\/a><\/p>\n << Chapter 9 verse 22<\/a><\/p>\n Simple<\/a><\/p>\n ye \u2019py anya-devat\u0101-bhakt\u0101 ‘Even those who worship other divinities, in love and faith, worship Myself, Kaunteya!, but (they do so) in an informal manner.'[2. With reference to this verse, Annie Besant said in her address before the Theosophical Society in December 1895:\u2014 \u201cThe Christian writer said he envied Hinduism that phrase in its Scriptures, and he wished he was able to quote it from his own Bible instead of finding it in the language of another faith.]<\/span><\/p>\n Those also, who are worshippers of Indra and other lesser divinities \u2014being followers of the Tri-Veda lines,\u2014 and who perform sacrifices directed to Indra etc., are in reality directing them to Myself. For, for reasons stated previously, all (Indra etc)., form My body, of which I am the Soul. And every term, Indra etc., finds its ultimate significance in referring to Myself.<\/span><\/p>\n They however perform sacrifices, ignorant of this form, or law. They do not worship Indra and other divinities in the manner that Ved\u0101nta passages such as :<\/span><\/p>\n \u2018Where (in Param\u0101tma) the Four-Hotri-rituals, obtain their fulfilment through the devas\u2019[3. Tait: Aran:<\/em> III-11-2. (Chatur hot\u0101ro yatra sampadam gacchanti devai\u1e25).] etc., inform how ceremonial worship applies to those divinities. For such Ved\u0101nta passages, while directly enjoining worship of Indra etc., as constituting the body of Paramapurusha, indirectly enjoin the worship of Paramapurusha Himself, as the Spirit ensouling that body.<\/span><\/p>\n (The meaning of the Ved\u0101nta passage quoted is this):<\/span><\/p>\n \u2018The Four-Hotri-service of rituals: Agnihotra[4. Keeping sacred fire, and daily throwing oblations into it, rice, ghee, etc.], Dar\u015ba[5. Dar\u015ba=A penance. Says Tait: Sam:<\/em> I-6-8: (ya evam vidv\u0101n am\u0101v\u0101sy\u0101m yajate.], P\u016br\u1e47am\u0101sa[6. Another penance. Says Tait: Sam:<\/em> I-6-8 : (ya evam vidv\u0101n paur\u1e47am\u0101s\u012bm yajate). See note under II-41<\/a> Bh:Gi:<\/em> and \u015aruta-prak\u0101\u015bika<\/em>, p.188 (Telugu Edition),=gloss on \u015ari: Bh\u0101shya<\/em>.], etc., find their fulfilment through Indra etc., constituting the body of Param\u0101tma, by means of Param\u0101tma Himself, Who is their Soul. That, of such (Param\u0101tma-ensouled) Indra etc., these rituals being the worship, they (the rituals) obtain their fulfilment from Him. (sampat<\/em>=fulfilment=fruition)<\/span><\/p>\n Hence, the votaries of the Traividya (or the Karma-K\u0101\u1e47da of the Vedas) do not understand that rituals are but worship-services of Paramapurusha Himself having Indra etc., as His body, and that Paramapurusha Himself is the real Object of that worship.<\/span><\/p>\n Hence they are entitled to limited recompense, and possess the character to fall (from the place or state, gained).<\/span><\/p>\n >> Chapter 9 verse 24<\/a><\/p>\n archived in https:\/\/githa.koyil.org<\/a><\/p>\n pramEyam (goal) \u2013 http:\/\/koyil.org<\/a> SrI:\u00a0 SrImathE SatakOpAya nama:\u00a0 SrImathE rAmAnujAya nama:\u00a0 SrImath varavaramunayE nama: Chapter 9 << Chapter 9 verse 22 Simple ye \u2019py anya-devat\u0101-bhakt\u0101 yajante \u015braddhay\u0101nvit\u0101\u1e25 te \u2019pi m\u0101m eva kaunteya yajanty avidhi-p\u016brvakam ‘Even those who worship other divinities, in love and faith, worship Myself, Kaunteya!, but (they do so) in an informal manner.'[2.
