You have appeared personally before us like a person soliciting worship, but actually You are present here just so we can see You. You have come out of Your abundant and causeless mercy in order to serve our purpose, our interest, and give us the benefit of Your personal glory called apavarga, liberation. You have come, although You are not properly worshiped by us due to our ignorance. ॥ 5-3-9 ॥

All these sacrifices are performed for our fruitive results, and they are not actually needed by You. ॥ 5-3-8 ॥
