येऽप्यन्यदेवता भक्ता यजन्ते श्रद्धयान्विता: |

भावार्थ:

हे अर्जुन! यद्यपि श्रद्धा से युक्त जो सकाम भक्त दूसरे देवताओं को पूजते हैं, वे भी मुझको ही पूजते हैं, किंतु उनका वह पूजन अविधिपूर्वक अर्थात्‌ अज्ञानपूर्वक है॥23॥

Translation

O son of Kunti, even those devotees who faithfully worship other gods also worship Me. But they do so by the wrong method.

English Translation Of Sri Shankaracharya’s Sanskrit Commentary By Swami Gambirananda
