34. Rukmini said:—True, indeed, O Lord of lotus eyes, is what Thou tellest me that I am not a proper match for Thy Almighty absolutely perfect self, for Thou art the Almighty Ruler of the three (Brahma, Rudra etc)., ever blessed in Thine own greatness (glory), whereas invested with the gunas of Prakriti am I whose feet are sought after only by the ignorant.

35. True, O Lord of surpassing activity, of mighty strides, Thou, as if afraid of the objects of sense, abidest in the sea and in the heart. Being pure Atman of infinite consciousness Thou art eternally at war with the wicked senses, with those that are under their influence; for even by Thy worshippers, the position of a king is avoided as one of blinding darkness.
