<span class="link">[[Vanisource:SB 2.6.27|SB 2.6.27, Translation and Purport]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="trans text"><p style="display: inline;">Thus I had to arrange all these necessary ingredients and paraphernalia of sacrifice from the personal bodily parts of the Personality of Godhead. By invocation of the demigods' names, the ultimate goal, Viṣṇu, was gradually attained, and thus compensation and ultimate offering were complete.</p>

<div class="purport text"><p>In this verse, special stress is given to the person of the Supreme Lord, and not to His impersonal brahma-jyotir, as being the source of all supplies. Nārāyaṇa, the Supreme Lord, is the goal of sacrificial results, and therefore the Vedic hymns are ultimately meant for attaining this goal. Human life is thus made successful by pleasing Nārāyaṇa and getting entrance into the direct association of Nārāyaṇa in the spiritual kingdom of Vaikuṇṭha.</p>
