One may engage in performing sacrifices and severe austerities for perfection, but they are all meant to satisfy the Supreme Lord.

The sage Maitreya continued: O Vidura, all the progenitors of the universal population thus executed a sacrifice for thousands of years, for sacrifice is the best way to worship the Supreme Lord, Hari, the Personality of Godhead.
