They don’t hate any one, don’t beg, don’t berate anyone, don’t go to places uninvited. For these reasons, stones can also be treated like Gods.

A bee is going from flower to flower all over the forest. But it missed smelling the champaka flower. Isn’t champaka fragrant enough? It is. Does the bee not know it? It does. Yet, the bee missed it. All of this happens only because God wants it that way.

Whatever God says (in the Bhagavadgeetha) is truth. But his actions may not always be right. A wise man must observe when He has acted in accordance to his words and follow only that. (This verse may be in response to critics of Lord Krishna’s questionable methods of fighting evil with deceit)

Heaven or hell, rebirth or emancipation, wealth in this world – all of these have the same source; your (God’s) feet. You are the cause of everything.

This life will end tomorrow or the day after. Even at that time, fools will not remember God. Instead they run behind the sensory pleasures which are like mire.
