तामसं राजसं वापि यत्कृतं विष्णुपूजनम् । तत्सात्त्विकत्वमभ्येति निम्नगांभो यथार्णवे
tāmasaṃ rājasaṃ vāpi yatkṛtaṃ viṣṇupūjanam | tatsāttvikatvamabhyeti nimnagāṃbho yathārṇave
تَامَسی یا راجَسی طریقے سے کیا گیا بھی وِشنو پوجن اثر میں ساتتوِک ہو جاتا ہے—جیسے دریا کا پانی سمندر میں پہنچ کر سمندر ہی کی فطرت اختیار کر لیتا ہے۔
