Bhagavad-gita As It Is

BG Chapters 7 - 12

BG 9.2, Purport: Simply by tasting the tulasī leaves offered to the lotus feet of the Lord, great sages like Sanat-kumāra became great devotees. Therefore the devotional process is very nice, and it can be executed in a happy mood. God accepts only the love with which things are offered to Him.

Srimad-Bhagavatam

SB Canto 3

SB 3.12.4, Purport: All of these great sages became great devotees, for without devotional service to the Personality of Godhead one cannot achieve success in any activity of spiritual value.
