To whom the demigods also pray!

Verse 1.17.34 (Shalini Mji):

* From childhood, almost all Indians, have worshipped so many demigods on the altar, not knowing what we are doing actually.
* Here, in SB, a clear explanation is being given:
- In all sacrificial ceremonies, although sometimes a demigod is worshiped, the Supreme Lord Personality of Godhead is worshiped because He is the Supersoul of everyone, and exists both inside and outside like the air. Thus it is He only who awards all welfare to the worshiper.
* So if we get the understanding that the demigods are themselves getting their power from Krishna only, then it becomes all clear to us as to who is ultimate beneficiary of all our sacrifices.
* In BG also Krishna says: bhoktaram yajna tapasam....
* Here He says that He only is the ultimate beneficiary and ultimate controller of everything!
* Another shloka SP mentions from BG:
- Whatever a man may sacrifice to other gods, O son of Kuntī, is really meant for Me alone, but it is offered without true understanding.
* Avidipurvakam, SP mentions this many times, without a true understanding we do so many things.
* In another shloka from BG, it is further confirmed: yanti deva vrtam devan....
- So if we worship demigods, finally we will go to them alone. Similarly worshipping ghosts will lead us there. But Krishna says those who worship Him, will go to Him, from where alone no one needs to come back.
* Even in Brahma samhita it is said that Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
- Krishna is present in each and every atom one and same time. ==> Krishna is present everywhere, inside and outside as well.
* Another pastime to confirm all this: Krishna's Govardhan Lila, how Krishna taught Indra a nice lesson!
- Where finally Indra himself acknowledges how Krishna is the supreme controller of all controllers. His prayers to Lord Krishna are also so important in this regard.
* By the example of Indra, we can see that the demigods themselves are praying to Lord Krishna!
