Nandin said: Those who carry out this son of mental worship should also be adored by means of obeisance, etc. Even if they are hideous and deformed, these expounders of Brahman should not be censured. They should not be subjected to scrutiny by a discerning person. Those who censure them are narrowminded persons who will become miserably unhappy as those sages of old who censured the lord in the Dārukā forest. The knowers of the Brahman who are beyond the bounds of castes and stages of life should always be served and bowed to by the persons devoted to the rigid discipline of castes and stages of life.
