Shloka : 84

विष्णु: शिवो गणपति: पार्वति च दिवाकर: ।

एता: पूज्यतया मान्या देवता: पञ्च मामकै: ॥ 84 ॥

અને અમારા જે આશ્રિત તેમણે, વિષ્ણુ, શિવ, ગણપતિ, પાર્વતી અને સૂર્ય એ પાંચ દેવ જે તે પૂજ્યપણે કરીને માનવા. ॥ 84 ॥

And my devotees should worship the five deities Vishnu, Shiva, Ganpati, Parvati and Surya. || 84 ||

Commentary

Shri Hari has adviced to worship the five deities Vishnu, Shiva, Ganpati, Parvati and Surya. So that the ignorant beings pay respect to these deities and do not become atheists. Actually, absolute devotees of Supreme God Shri Swaminarayan Bhagwan do not consider the superiority of any God-Goddesses, and if they pay respect, that is because they see them under the prowess of Shri Hari. This principle has been written to reconcile the seekers who are not the direct disciples of Shriji Maharaj. And this principle should be followed by the absolute devotees also to reconcile with others and to please Shriji Maharaj.
