Only Spirit(भाव:) Matters


मूर्खो वदति विष्णाय धीरो वदति विष्णवे |
उभयस्य फ़लम् तुल्यं भवग्राही जनार्दन:||

The above श्लोक: in simple terms says that God only looks at intention, not grammar.  Gist is as follows.

Foolish people say विष्णाय which grammatically incorrect.रामाय is correct but for विष्णु it must be विष्णवे; which is the word used by विद्वान while praying. However, the result of the prayer is same; since its based on the भाव: not the grammar.
