evaṁ sadā karma-kalāpam ātmanaḥ
pare 'dhiyajñe bhagavaty adhokṣaje
sarvātma-bhāvaṁ vidadhan mahīm imāṁ
tan-niṣṭha-viprābhihitaḥ śaśāsa ha
Performing devotional acts daily with rati by his mind and senses to the Supreme Lord, Kṛṣṇa, whose worship is superior to other processes, he ruled the world, taking advice from devotee brāhmaṇas.
Always offering his devotion actions with rati, using his mind and senses (sarvātma-bhāvam) to the supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa, whose worship is superior to jñāna and austerity (adhiyajñe), he ruled the world taught by devotee brāhmaṇas who said, “Worship the Lord twenty-four hours a day with all your senses and mind and assign the task of ruling the world to competent representatives.”

He worshipped the Supreme Lord by horse sacrifices required by a king for prosperity, with all aṅgas and charities, performed by Vasiṣṭha, Asita, Gautama and other sages in the desert facing the flow of the Sarasvatī River.
Therefore performance of sacrifices obligatory for a king he had performed by representatives as did Bharata. He had sacrifices performed with gifts and all aṅgas as required by a king for prosperity by Vasiṣṭha and others in the desert (dhanvani) facing the current of the Sarasvatī River. He himself, at a distant place, in his palace, engaged in worshipping the Lord with concentration.
