 Melkote Tirunarayana Perumal

Bhokataram Yagna tapasam sarva loka maheshvaram I

Suhradam sarva bhutanam jnatva mam santim rchchati II sloka 29

भोक्तारं यज्ञ तपसां सर्व लोक महेश्वरं ।

सुह्रदं सर्व भूतानां ज्ञात्वा मां शान्तिं ऋच्छति ।। श्लोक २९ 

Having known me as the lord of the yagnas and asceticisms as the ruler of all the worlds, as the friend of all beings,he attains peace.

It is through the grace of the Lord that the earnest souls take to the performance of yagnas  and practice of asceticism. The lord again is the goal of their great endeavours. He is the overlord of the entire universe. Not only does he rule over all, but also protects them as their genuine friend.  He resides as conscience in the hearts of all beings and assigns the fruits of their various activities. As the karma emanates from Him, knowledge and wisdom  also comes to beings from him. The muni  who gives his ceaseless thought to these divine glories of the Lord gains supreme peace.
