Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 12.8.40
"Śrī Mārkaṇḍeya said: O Almighty Lord, how can I possibly describe You? You awaken the vital air, which then impels the mind, senses and power of speech to act. This is true for all ordinary conditioned souls and even for great demigods like Brahmā and Śiva. So it is certainly true for me. Nevertheless, You become the intimate friend of those who worship You." https://vedy.online/en/sb12/8/40

"Because You are the protector and the supreme controller of all moving and nonmoving beings, anyone who takes shelter of Your lotus feet can never be touched by the contamination of material work, material qualities or time.

To gain Your association, they bow down to You at every opportunity and constantly worship You and meditate upon You." https://vedy.online/en/sb12/8/42
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 12.8.44
"Therefore I worship Your lotus feet, having renounced my identification with the material body and everything else that covers my true self.

"O Lord, because fearlessness, spiritual happiness and the kingdom of God are all achieved through the mode of pure goodness, Your devotees consider this mode, but never passion and ignorance, to be a direct manifestation of You, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Intelligent persons thus worship Your beloved transcendental form, composed of pure goodness, along with the spiritual forms of Your pure devotees." https://vedy.online/en/sb12/8/46
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 12.11.24
"O best of brāhmaṇas, He alone is the self-luminous, original source of the Vedas, perfect and complete in His own glory. By His material energy He creates, destroys and maintains this entire universe. Because He is the performer of various material functions, He is sometimes described as materially divided, yet He always remains transcendentally situated in pure knowledge. Those who are dedicated to Him in devotion can realize Him to be their true Soul." https://vedy.online/en/sb12/11/24

What, then, is the use of even the most properly performed fruitive activities, which are naturally painful from the very beginning and transient by nature, if they are not utilized for the devotional service of the Lord?" https://vedy.online/en/sb12/12/53
