Bhagavatapurana 3.13.13

3.13.13

yeṣāṃ na tuṣṭo bhagavān yajña-liṅgo janārdanaḥ /
teṣāṃ śramo hy apārthāya yad ātmā nādṛtaḥ svayam //

13. Empty of purpose will be the labour of those with whom the Almighty Janardana, who is in the form of Yagnas, is

not pleased; for the very Atman (Self) becomes neglected (if they do not secure His grace by what they do.)
