महत्त्वस्य परं पारं विदित्वैव जनार्दनः ।

स्तोष्यतामेति तुष्टत्वं इति नास्त्येव नारद ।।

किन्तु निश्चलया भक्त्या ह्यात्मज्ञानानुरूपतः ।

यः स्तोष्यति सदा भक्तः तुष्टस्तस्य सदा हरिः ।।

It is not that the Supreme Brahman janArdana is pleased only if one praises Him after understanding the entire Vedas. But He is pleased if praised incessantly with un-wavering devotion by a devotee who has understood the Vedas according to his capacity.
