Explicación

This is among the most beloved verses in the Gita. Krishna says that whoever offers him with devotion (bhakti) a leaf, a flower, a fruit or a little water, he accepts that offering from one whose heart is pure. The value of the gift lies not in its cost but in the love with which it is given. The verse contrasts sharply with the elaborate sacrifices described earlier. It makes worship available to anyone, rich or poor, learned or not, and has shaped devotional practice across India.
