व्रतोपवासैर्होमैर्वा नैवेद्यैश्चारुभिस्तथा ॥ यजन्ते ब्राह्मणा ये मां परया श्रद्धयान्विताः ॥
vratopavāsair homair vā naivedyaiś cārubhis tathā || yajante brāhmaṇā ye māṃ parayā śraddhayānvitāḥ ||
पंडित लोग व्रत रखते हैं, उपवास करते हैं, हवन करते हैं और भगवान को भोग लगाते हैं। यह सब दिल से करते हैं और भगवान की पूजा करते हैं। भगवान उनसे बहुत खुश रहते हैं।
