Here's a really good quote from Adi Purana: g…tv€ ca mam n€m€ni nartyena mam sannidhau idam brav…mi te satyam kr…toham tena c€rjunah g…tv€ ca mam n€m€ni r™danti mam sannidhau te€m aham par…kr…to n€nya kr…to jan€rdanaƒ gitva ca mam namani nartyena mam sannidhau idam bravimi te satyam kritoham tena carjunah gitva ca mam namani rudanti mam sannidhau tesam aham parikr…to nanya krito janardanaƒ O Arjuna, I declare the truth that I become purchased by the person who sings My Names and dances before My Deity form. I being unpurchasable for others become completely purchased by the person who sings My Names and cries before My Deity form.
