Shloka 5
तमेव चार्चयन् नित्यं भकक्त्या पुरुषमव्ययम् | ध्यायन् स्तुवन् नमस्यंश्व॒ यजमानस्तमेव च
tam eva cārcayan nityaṁ bhaktyā puruṣam avyayam | dhyāyan stuvan namasyaṁś ca yajamānas tam eva ca ||
Bhishma disse: “Ao adorar constantemente essa mesma Pessoa Imperecível com devoção—meditando n’Ele, louvando-O e prostrando-se diante d’Ele—o adorador que se oferece em serviço reverente a Ele fica livre de todas as tristezas.”
