'O son of Kunti, if even the fearful, the miserly, and the ascetics should worship Madhava (Krishna), then surely you too should understand the worship that He deserves.' ।। 2-34-17 ।।
'O Janardana (Krishna), why did you accept the worship offered by those wretched and mean-minded princes, even though you are unworthy of it?' ।। 2-34-18 ।।
'You highly value the worship that is inappropriate for yourself, like a dog in a deserted place eager to lick up the remnants of an oblation.' ।। 2-34-19 ।।
