Fruit of worship of Minor Deities - Sloka 12
1 Gita Sloka every day - Chapter 4 -JnanaKarmaSanyasa Yoga - Sloka 12
Kankshantah karmanam siddhim yajante iha devatah I
Kshipram hi manushe loke sidhtih bhavati karmagya II sloka 12
काङ्क्षन्तः कर्मणां सिद्धिं यजन्ते इह देवताः ।
क्षिप्रं हि मानुषे लोके सिध्तिः भवति कर्मजा ।। श्लोक १२
Those who desire the fruits of their ritualistic acts, sacrifice to gods here; for, success born of such acts quickly accrues in the world of men.
The whole universe beginning with Brahma and ending with the cluster of grass, with the system of 4 stations divided according to sattva and other gunas and by actions like self control corresponding to the gunas, was created by Me. The mention of creation is for illustration. The universe is protected by me alone and is withdrawn by me alone. Know me to be the creator of this manifold actions of creation, but at the same time to be a non-agent.
