Bhagavad-gītā
Chapter 10, verses 8 to 11.
Translation
I am the source of all spiritual and material worlds. Everything emanates from
Me. The wise who perfectly know this engage in My devotional service and
worship Me with all their hearts.
A person may have a bona fide spiritual master and may be attached to a
spiritual organization, but if he is still not intelligent enough to make
progress, then Kṛṣṇa from within gives him instructions so that he may
ultimately come to Him without difficulty. The qualification is that a person
always engage himself in Kṛṣṇa consciousness and with love and devotion
render all kinds of services.

Translation
To show them special mercy, I, dwelling in their hearts, destroy with the
shining lamp of knowledge the darkness born of ignorance.
