Even if they should transgress those laws, they are deserving of being accounted as righteous men, if, in the manner aforesaid, they do but worship Me, with a worship exclusively devoted to Me. Such a person is to be esteemed or honored as a s\u0101dhu or the most staunchly eminent Vaish\u1e47ava; or to be classed as equal to those of My worshippers already mentioned.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But how is this possible? Because His (present) conduct or resolution is definitely settled in the right direction (<em>viz<\/em>., of unswervingly worshipping Me). His firm attitude of mind consists in his implicit belief, \u2014which all cannot get\u2014 that \u201cthe Lord alone is the Cause of the infinite Kosmos, the Para-brahma, N\u0101r\u0101ya\u1e47a, the Ruler of movable and immovable things, \u2018My own\u2019 Sovereign Lord, \u2018My\u2019 Teacher, \u2018My\u2019 friend, and \u2018My\u2019 Object of supreme delight.\u201d Such a man is hence a good or righteous man.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He is also to be honored, or, in other words, he is not an object to be lightly regarded, on account of any slight derelictions from the institutes of his caste, inasmuch as all his attention and effort are co-centred on the kind of worship aforesaid. He is thus to be more honored.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But if it be objected, that transgression of customary laws (of caste), must impede the further and further development of the flow of God-devotion, as in the manner declared in the \u015aruti:\u2014 \u2018He shall not attain Him, who has not ceased from wickedness, who is not free from passions, whose mind is distracted, and engrossed with manifold occupation, even though he may possess knowledge (of Brahm)\u2019[1.
