“O Grandsire! It is heard that even in human beings, there are persons worshipped by diving bodies. Kindly enlighten me about them.” asked Dharmaja.
“O Dharmanandana! the same question was asked by Matali (charioteer of Devendra), for which Devendra gave the following reply.
- Those who earn money and enjoy sensual pleasures through lawful means;
- those who possess phisique and beauty desired by beautiful ladies, but do not have any sensual desires towards ladies;
- those who possess higher education, enormous wealth and riches but do not have pride;
- those who conquered their sense organs;
- those who are satisfied with their own wives; those who speak truth always; those who are desirous of performing Tapas;
- those who remain neat and clean always; those who do not indulge in unnecessary affairs; and
- those who are sanyasis are worshipped by divine bodies though they are human beings.” said Bhishma.
