Rāmānuja7.22 He, endowed with that faith without obstacles, performs the worship of Indra and other divinities. Thence, i.e., from the worship of Indra and other divinities, who constitute My body, he attains the objects of his desire, which are in reality granted by Me alone. Although he does not know at the time of worship that divinities like Indra, who are his objects of worship, are My body only, and that worship of them is My worship, still, inasmuch as this worship is, in reality, My worship, he attains his objects of desire granted by Me alone.

Śaṅkarācārya7.22 Yuktah,being endued; taya, with that; sraddhaya, faith, as granted by Me; sah, that person; ihate, engages in; radhanam, i.e. aradhanam, worshipping; tasyah, that form of the deity. And labhate, he gets; tan hi, those very; kaman, desired results; tatah, there-from, from that form of the deity which was worshipped; as vihitan, they are dispensed, meted out; maya eva, by Me alone, who am the omniscient, supreme God, because I am possessed of the knowledge of the apportionment of the results of actions. The meaning his that he surely gets those desired results since they are ordained by God. If the reading be hitan (instead of hi tan), then the beneficence (-hita means beneficent-) of the desired result should be interpreted in a figurative sense, for desires cannot be beneficial to anyone!

A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupadaThe demigods cannot award benedictions to their devotees without the permission of the Supreme Lord. The living entity may forget that everything is the property of the Supreme Lord, but the demigods do not forget. So the worship of demigods and achievement of desired results are due not to the demigods but to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, by arrangement. The less intelligent living entity does not know this, and therefore he foolishly goes to the demigods for some benefit. But the pure devotee, when in need of something, prays only to the Supreme Lord. Asking for material benefit, however, is not a sign of a pure devotee. A living entity goes to the demigods usually because he is mad to fulfill his lust. This happens when something undue is desired by the living entity and the Lord Himself does not fulfill the desire. In the Caitanya-caritāmṛta it is said that one who worships the Supreme Lord and at the same time desires material enjoyment is contradictory in his desires. Devotional service to the Supreme Lord and the worship of a demigod cannot be on the same platform, because worship of a demigod is material and devotional service to the Supreme Lord is completely spiritual. For the living entity who desires to return to Godhead, material desires are impediments. A pure devotee of the Lord is therefore not awarded the material benefits desired by less intelligent living entities, who therefore prefer to worship demigods of the material world rather than engage in the devotional service of the Supreme Lord.

Swami Sivananda7.22 सः he? तया with that? श्रद्धया with faith? युक्तः endowed? तस्य of it? आराधनम् worship? ईहते engages in? लभते obtains? च and? ततः from that? कामान् desires? मया by Me? एव surely? विहितान् ordained? हि verily? तान् those.Commentary The last two words Hi and Tan are taken as one word? Hitan meaning benefits. This is another interpretation. The devotee who worships the lesser gods attains the objects of his desire (minor psychic powers? etc.). Those objects are ordained by the Lord only as He alone knows exactly the relation between the actions and their results or rewards and as He is the Inner Ruler of all beings. Unwise or undiscriminating people only take recourse to the means of getting these finite rewards which can hardly give entire satisfaction. Pitiable indeed is their lot They have,no power of eniry (VicharaSakti) or right understanding. They get hold of pieces of glass instead of attaining the jewel of the Self? of incalculabe value.

Swami Chinmayananda।।7.22।। वह भक्त उस श्रद्धा से युक्त होकर अपने इष्ट देवता की आराधना करता है जिसके फलस्वरूप वह देवता उसकी इच्छा को पूर्ण करता है। परन्तु भगवान् कहते हैं कि वास्तव में कर्मफलदाता वे ही हैं। सर्वज्ञ सर्वशक्तिमान परमात्मा ही समस्त जगत् का आदि कारण होने से मनुष्य को कर्म करने की और देवताओं को फल प्रदान करने की सार्मथ्य उन्हीं से प्राप्त होती है। इष्टानिष्ट फलों की प्राप्ति से सुख दुखादि का अनुभव अन्तकरण में होता है जिसे आत्मचैतन्य प्रकाशित करता है। उसके बिना इस प्रकार का कोई अनुभव प्राप्त नहीं हो सकता।श्रद्धा के साथ किये हुये पूजन से ईश्वर द्वारा विधान किये हुए नियम के अनुसार फल प्राप्त होता है। यहाँ श्रीकृष्ण अपने परमात्म स्वरूप के साथ तादात्म्य करके कहते हैं वे इष्ट फल मेरे द्वारा ही दिये जाते हैं।अविवेकी लोग अनित्य भोगों की कामना करते हैं इसलिए उन्हें कभी शाश्वत शान्ति प्राप्त नहीं होती अत कहते हैं

Swami Ramsukhdas।।7.22।। व्याख्या--स तया श्रद्धया युक्तः ৷৷. मयैव विहितान्हि तान् मेरे द्वारा दृढ़ की हुई श्रद्धासे सम्पन्न हुआ वह मनुष्य उस देवताकी आराधनाकी चेष्टा करता है और उस देवतासे जिस कामनापूर्तिकी आशा रखता है, उस कामनाकी पूर्ति होती है। यद्यपि वास्तवमें उस कामनाकी पूर्ति मेरे द्वारा ही की हुई होती है; परन्तु वह उसको देवतासे ही पूरी की हुई मानता है। वास्तवमें देवताओंमें मेरी ही शक्ति है और मेरे ही विधानसे वे उनकी कामनापूर्ति करते हैं। जैसे सरकारी अफसरोंको एक सीमित अधिकार दिया जाता है कि तुमलोग अमुक विभागमें अमुक अवसरपर इतना खर्च कर सकते हो, इतना इनाम दे सकते हो। ऐसे ही देवताओंमें एक सीमातक ही देनेकी शक्ति होती है; अतः वे उतना ही दे सकते हैं, अधिक नहीं। देवताओंमें अधिक-से-अधिक इतनी शक्ति होती है कि वे अपने-अपने उपासकोंको अपने-अपने लोकोंमें ले जा सकते हैं। परन्तु अपनी उपासनाका फल भोगनेपर उनको वहाँसे लौटकर पुनः संसारमें आना पड़ता है (गीता 8। 16)।यहाँ 'मयैव'कहनेका तात्पर्य है कि संसारमें स्वतः जो कुछ संचालन हो रहा है, वह सब मेरा ही किया हुआ है। अतः जिस किसीको जो कुछ मिलता है, वह सब मेरे द्वारा विधान किया हुआ ही मिलता है। कारण कि मेरे सिवाय विधान करनेवाला दूसरा कोई नहीं है। अगर कोई मनुष्य इस रहस्यको समझ ले, तो फिर वह केवल मेरी तरफ ही खिंचेगा। सम्बन्ध--अब भगवान् उपासनाके अनुसार फलका वर्णन करते हैं।
