God will be pleased if a person acts with purity of mind, body and speech.The world appreciates it. When it is really great, why do you struggle for other means.

C 1
tana manasE paripoorNamaina gOdAvari gangA kAvEri
kanaka bindu yamunA gayAdi mukhya ksEtrambula santatamun
dinakara sOma grahaNa kAlamula teerthAchraNAlu chEsina phalamulu
tanu dAnE sidhdhinchunu voorakE davvulu tiragaga mari Ela ||

A person's mind is full like the rivers Godavari,Ganga and Kaveri. It is like river Yamuna and holy Gaya. Purity of mind automatically confers the fruits of performing rituals at the time of lunar and Solar eclipses. Why do you go here and there in vain?.

C 2
hari yanu renDaksharamulu nuDivina akhila vEdamulu mantramulu
garima dharma SAstra purANAdulu kramamuna chadivina puNyamulu
parama tapO yOgambulu modalagu bahu sAdhanamula sArambu
paripakvambai phali inchaga baTTabayalu vedakaga nEla ||

Uttering two letters 'ha'&'ri'will bestow Punyam that can be earned by reciting the Vedas and studying epics and philosophy. Hari's name is the essence of supreme penance and austerities. When Hari's name bestows such fruits, why search for other means?

C 3

Just by bowing to Sri Venkatapati a person will be blessed with 'Punyam' of performing of sixteen Yagas and five Yajnas (Vedic sacrifices). Then why do you torment your body again and again?

Oh Purushottama, you are the most fascinating Lord. You are skillful. I wonder at my dissatisfaction. Is it my deficiency or yours.

My eyes are not satisfied though I worship you repeatedly. My ears are not satisfied though I listened to your stories many times. My tongue is not contended though I sang your glory in your presence. Is it my deficiency or yours.

I am not tired of enjoying your "Prasad". Any number of perambulations do not pain my feet. My forehead does not ache inspite of a number of prostrations. This may be my madness. Is this due to you or me?.

C 3

My hands are not tired of worshipping you. My mind is not tired of looking at your beauty. Oh Venkateswara, you fascinated me. Is this my deficiency or yours?.
