# Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam Canto 1 Chapter 7 Text 4

**[Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam Canto 1 Chapter 7 Text 4](https://vedabase.io/en/library/sb/1/7/4/)**

 

*
bhakti-yogena manasi
samyak praṇihite ’male
apaśyat puruṣaṁ pūrṇaṁ
māyāṁ ca tad-apāśrayām
* 

TRANSLATION
Thus he fixed his mind, perfectly engaging it by linking it in devotional service [bhakti-yoga] without any tinge of materialism, and thus he saw the Absolute Personality of Godhead along with His external energy, which was under full control.
