यैः श्रद्धया बर्हिषि भागशो हवि र्निरुप्तमिष्टं विधिमन्त्रवस्तुतः । एकः पृथङ् नामभिराहुतो मुदा गृह्णाति पूर्णः स्वयमाशिषां प्रभुः ।। ५-१९-२६ ।।

sanskrit

In India [Bhārata-varṣa], there are many worshipers of the demigods, the various officials appointed by the Supreme Lord, such as Indra, Candra and Sūrya, all of whom are worshiped differently. The worshipers offer the demigods their oblations, considering the demigods part and parcel of the whole, the Supreme Lord. Therefore the Supreme Personality of Godhead accepts these offerings and gradually raises the worshipers to the real standard of devotional service by fulfilling their desires and aspirations. Because the Lord is complete, He offers the worshipers the benedictions they desire even if they worship only part of His transcendental body. ।। 5-19-26 ।।

सत्यं दिशत्यर्थितमर्थितो नृणां नैवार्थदो यत्पुनरर्थिता यतः । स्वयं विधत्ते भजतामनिच्छतामिच्छापिधानं निजपादपल्लवम् ।। ५-१९-२७ ।।

sanskrit

The Supreme Personality of Godhead fulfills the material desires of a devotee who approaches Him with such motives, but He does not bestow benedictions upon the devotee that will cause him to demand more benedictions again. However, the Lord willingly gives the devotee shelter at His own lotus feet, even though such a person does not aspire for it, and that shelter satisfies all his desires. That is the Supreme Personality’s special mercy. ।‌। 5-19-27 ।।

यद्यत्र नः स्वर्गसुखावशेषितं स्विष्टस्य सूक्तस्य कृतस्य शोभनम् । तेनाजनाभे स्मृतिमज्जन्म नः स्याद्वर्षे हरिर्यद्भजतां शं तनोति ।। ५-१९-२८ ।।

sanskrit

We are now living in the heavenly planets, undoubtedly as a result of our having performed ritualistic ceremonies, pious activities and yajñas and having studied the Vedas. However, our lives here will one day be finished. We pray that at that time, if any merit remains from our pious activities, we may again take birth in Bhārata-varṣa as human beings able to remember the lotus feet of the Lord. The Lord is so kind that He personally comes to the land of Bhārata-varṣa and expands the good fortune of its people. ।। 5-19-28 ।।
