These demigods are worshiped mostly by those who are in the lowest categories of the mode of darkness or ignorance. Other demigods, like Brahmā, Śiva, Sūrya, Gaṇeśa and many similar deities, are worshiped by men in the mode of passion, urged on by the desire for material enjoyment. But those who are actually situated in the mode of goodness (sattva-guṇa) of material nature worship only viṣṇu-tattvas. Viṣṇu-tattvas are represented by various names and forms, such as Nārāyaṇa, Dāmodara, Vāmana, Govinda and Adhokṣaja.&lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;p&gt;The qualified brāhmaṇas worship the viṣṇu-tattvas represented by the śālagrāma-śilā, and some of the higher castes like the kṣatriyas and vaiśyas also generally worship the viṣṇu-tattvas.&lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> &lt;div id=&quot;SB_Canto_6&quot; class=&quot;sub_section&quot; sec_index=&quot;6&quot; parent=&quot;Srimad-Bhagavatam&quot; text=&quot;SB Canto 6&quot;&gt;&lt;h3&gt;SB Canto 6&lt;/h3&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> &lt;div id=&quot;SB6127_0&quot; class=&quot;quote&quot; parent=&quot;SB_Canto_6&quot; book=&quot;SB&quot; index=&quot;26&quot; link=&quot;SB 6.1.27&quot; link_text=&quot;SB 6.1.27&quot;&gt;<br /> &lt;span class=&quot;link&quot;&gt;[[Vanisource:SB 6.1.27|SB 6.1.27, Purport]]: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;display: inline;&quot; class=&quot;purport text&quot;&gt;&lt;p style=&quot;display: inline;&quot;&gt;It may also be concluded that Ajāmila, who was the son of a brāhmaṇa, was accustomed to worshiping Nārāyaṇa in his youth because in every brāhmaṇa&#039;s house there is worship of the nārāyaṇa-śilā. This system is still present in India; in a rigid brāhmaṇa&#039;s house, there is nārāyaṇa-sevā, worship of Nārāyaṇa. Therefore, although the contaminated Ajāmila was calling for his son, by concentrating his mind on the holy name of Nārāyaṇa he remembered the Nārāyaṇa he had very faithfully worshiped in his youth.&lt;/p&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;<br /> &lt;/div&gt;</div>
