The god are never gratified with one of mean soul, with one who observes no restraint in the matter of food, and with one who is of sinful deeds. On the other hand, the gods associate with those men who observe the vow of truth, who are grateful, and who are engaged in the practice of virtue.
न वै देवा हीनसत्त्वेन तोष्याः सर्वाशिना दुष्कृतकर्मणा वा। सत्यव्रता ये तु नराः कृतज्ञा धर्मे रतास्तैः सह सम्भजन्ते॥
