Balaki said:
“The Person who dwells in the waters—it is He whom I worship.”
Ajatashatru replied:
“Do not speak to me about Him in that way. I worship Him as the essence of that which is fitting, agreeable, and life-sustaining.”
He continued:
“Whoever worships Him in this manner becomes endowed with harmony, well-being, and inner suitability, attracting what is beneficial and conducive to life.”
Thus ends the teaching concerning the cosmic (adhidaivata) aspect, and now begins the teaching concerning the individual (adhyātma) aspect.
