«The son of Rikṣa, O Kaunteya, the bull of the Kurus, mighty, King Samvarana always worshipped the Sun — with offerings of arghya, garlands, and gifts, with vows, fasts, and various austerities. Diligent in service, free of self-praise, pure, the joy of the Pauravas, devoted, he worshipped the radiant rising Surya».

Here is revealed the image of a devoted worshipper. It is telling that the king honors Surya not with offerings alone but also with vows, fasts, austerities, and, above all, humility — he is "free of self-praise, pure, diligent in service": true worship is both rite and the disposition of the heart. This reveals that bhakti is not outward show alone, but devotion joined with humility and purity. Thus the scripture shows that worship of the divine, offered with one's whole being, is pleasing and draws forth its grace; and Samvarana's devotion will not go unanswered.
