Voice of Sankara - Adi Sankara

So God is worshipped in any form which a devotee wishes to, and he is considered to be still within the Hindu fold.

Worship Govinda who is supreme bliss, real, knowledge, infinite, and eternal, who is free from Akasha (and other upadhis), who is the highest light, who was eager as a child to crawl in the cow-pen, who is really free from difficulties, but who appears to be in difficulties.

Seeing, like pictures, the people of the city consisting of men and young women of different forms clad in attractive dress and decked with ornaments of gold. Realizing that he is actually seeing them and mixing merrily with them.
