Unspecified (narrative voice; verse excerpt lacks explicit dialogue markers)
Concept: Where Bhagavān abides, prosperity and spiritual attainments become harmonized; the Lord is the true knower and source of yoga.
Application: Seek ‘yoga’ as steadiness in devotion—daily nāma-japa and offering of food; treat worldly prosperity as service-capital (seva) rather than identity.

FAQs
The verse refers to “devaḥ” (the Lord) as yogajña and yogavittama—one who knows Yoga and is the foremost authority on it—though the specific deity is not named in this excerpt.
Ṛddhi denotes worldly prosperity or flourishing abundance, while siddhi denotes spiritual attainments or extraordinary accomplishments; the verse says the described locus/person is endowed with both in fullness.
It emphasizes divine indwelling: where complete prosperity and spiritual attainment are present, the Lord—supreme knower of Yoga—abides continually, implying that true fulfillment is grounded in divine presence and yogic wisdom.
