Bhagavad Gita · Raja Vidya Raja Guhya YogaAdhyaay 9, Shloka 29 (9.29)

Shankaracharya — agni ki upma. Agnivat aham — dūrasthānāṃ yathā agniḥ śītaṃ na apanayati, samīpam upasarpatāṃ apanayati, tathā ahaṃ bhaktān anugṛhṇāmi na itarān — main agni jaisa: door rehne walon ki thand nahin bhagaati, paas aane walon ki bhagaati — waise hi; ye bhajanti … mayi te svabhāvata eva na mama rāga-nimittam — bhakt apne svabhaav se mujhmein, mere raag se nahin; na etāvatā teṣu dveṣo mama — isse doosron ke prati mera dvesh nahin.

Aacharya Ramanuja — janm se pare (mahatvapoorn). Deva-tiryaṅ-manuṣya-sthāvarātmanā sthiteṣu jātitaḥ ca ākārataḥ svabhāvato jñānataḥ ca atyantotkṛṣṭāpakṛṣṭa-rūpeṇa vartamāneṣu sarveṣu bhūteṣu samāśrayaṇīyatvena samaḥ aham — jaati, aakaar, svabhaav aur gyaan mein atyant ooncha-neecha dikhne wale sab praaniyon ke liye, sharan dene mein main sam hoon; ayaṃ jāty-ākāra-svabhāva-jñānādibhiḥ nikṛṣṭa iti samāśrayaṇe na me dveṣyaḥ asti — "yeh jaati, roop, svabhaav ya gyaan se neecha hai" — is kaaran sharan mein koi mujhe thukraane yogya nahin; jātyādibhiḥ atyantotkṛṣṭaḥ ayam iti … na kaścit priyaḥ asti — "yeh jaati aadi se bahut ooncha hai" — is kaaran koi priya nahin; ye māṃ bhajante te jātyādibhiḥ utkṛṣṭāḥ apakṛṣṭā vā mat-samāna-guṇavad yathā-sukhaṃ mayi eva vartante, aham api teṣu mad-utkṛṣṭeṣu iva varte — jo mujhe bhajte hain, ve jaati se oonche hon ya neeche, mere samaan gun wale ki tarah sukh se mujhmein rehte hain, aur main unme aise rehta hoon jaise ve mujhse bhi shreshth hon.
