    Of course this doesn't give free license to commit murder and say "oh but I love Lord Krishna, and I pray to Him every day". No, there are rules and regulations.

    But 9.26 and 9.30 point out and underscore to me how merciful, loving and easy to please Sri Krishna is.
    Not wishing to derail this thread so i be brief and do not expect an answer because i think we are on same page here.

    There is no doubt Krishna is loving and merciful, easy to please? perhaps we would have a different take here.

    coming back to 9.30 my take is on the operating word here is;
    api cet su-duracaro

    bhajate mam ananya-bhak

    sadhur eva sa mantavyah

    samyag vyavasito hi sah


    without deviation

    It is not as if one who is a sinner and remains a sinner can be considered a sadhu, again the next verse is important to understand because that person would soon become DharmAtma following the code of Dharma.
    ksipram bhavati dharmatma
    sasvac-chantim nigacchati

    kaunteya pratijanihi

    na me bhaktah pranasyati


    Jai Shree Krishna
    Rig Veda list only 33 devas, they are all propitiated, worthy off our worship, all other names of gods are derivative from this 33 originals,
    Bhagvat Gita; Shree Krishna says Chapter 3.11 devan bhavayatanena te deva bhavayantu vah parasparam bhavayantah sreyah param avapsyatha Chapter 17.4 yajante sattvika devan yaksa-raksamsi rajasah pretan bhuta-ganams canye yajante tamasa janah
    The world disappears in him. He is the peaceful, the good, the one without a second.

    I wanted to answer to not let you think I ignored you...

    Yes, I think we're on the same page and saying the same thing, just saying it differently. In person it's so much easier to get messages and meanings across.
