Verse 196. Worship Brings Limitless Merit

They who are ‘Thus’, venerable,
cool and free from every fear –
no one is able to calculate
their merit as ‘just-so-much.

Explanation: One who worships those who have attained imperturbability and do not tremble or fear, earns much merit. The merit earned by such a person cannot be measured by anyone.
