यो यो यां यां तनुं भक्तः श्रद्धयार्चितुमिच्छति । तस्य तस्याचलां श्रद्धां तामेव विदधाम्यहम्॥६-२९-२१॥

Whatever form a devotee wishes to worship with faith, I make that very faith steady for that person.

english translation

स तया श्रद्धया युक्तस्तस्या राधनमीहते । लभते च ततः कामान्मयैव विहितान्हि तान्॥६-२९-२२॥

Endowed with that faith, one strives to worship and propitiate that deity; and thereby one obtains the desired objects—indeed, those are granted by Me alone.

english translation

अन्तवत्तु फलं तेषां तद्भवत्यल्पमेधसाम् । देवान्देवयजो यान्ति मद्भक्ता यान्ति मामपि॥६-२९-२३॥

But the fruit of such worship is finite; so it is for those of limited discernment. Worshippers of the gods go to the gods; My devotees go to Me as well.

english translation

अव्यक्तं व्यक्तिमापन्नं मन्यन्ते मामबुद्धयः । परं भावमजानन्तो ममाव्ययमनुत्तमम्॥६-२९-२४॥

The undiscerning think that I—the Unmanifest—have entered into manifestation, not knowing My higher mode of being, imperishable and unsurpassed.

english translation

नाहं प्रकाशः सर्वस्य योगमायासमावृतः । मूढोऽयं नाभिजानाति लोको मामजमव्ययम्॥६-२९-२५॥

I am not evident to everyone, being veiled by Yogamāyā. This deluded world does not recognize Me as unborn and imperishable.
