Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam · Text 4.22.47
Who is speaking and story frame
यैरीदृशी भगवतो गतिरात्मवाद
एकान्ततो निगमिभि: प्रतिपादिता न: ।
तुष्यन्त्वदभ्रकरुणा: स्वकृतेन नित्यं
को नाम तत्प्रतिकरोति विनोदपात्रम् ॥ ४७ ॥
yair īdṛśī bhagavato gatir ātma-vāda
ekāntato nigamibhiḥ pratipāditā naḥ
tuṣyantv adabhra-karuṇāḥ sva-kṛtena nityaṁ
ko nāma tat pratikaroti vinoda-pātram
Pṛthu Mahārāja continued: How can such persons, who have rendered unlimited service by explaining the path of self-realization in relation to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and whose explanations are given for our enlightenment with complete conviction and Vedic evidence, be repaid except by folded palms containing water for their satisfaction? Such great personalities can be satisfied only by their own activities, which are distributed amongst human society out of their unlimited mercy.
