Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 23 - Meaning

The meaning of Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 20 to 23 is that, that which is mentioned in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 12 to 15 that those whose knowledge has been stolen by the three gunas-(Rajgun Shri Brahma Ji, Satgun Shri Vishnu Ji, Tamgun Shri Shiv Ji)-like Maya i.e. those who worship the three gods, they, endowed with demoniac nature, lowest among men, evil-doers, fools, do not worship me, Brahm. In relation to this only, it is stated in Bhagavad Gita Chapter 7 Verse 20 to 23 that those whose knowledge has been stolen by the above-mentioned three gods, they by their nature worship those very gods with the aim of the fulfilment of their desires i.e. the giver of the knowledge of Bhagavad Gita is saying that they worship gods other than me. Whichever god a devotee worships, I only make his faith firm towards that god. That worshipper of the gods attains the fruit by the power granted by me alone to that god, but that fruit of those dim-witted i.e. foolish people is perishable. Those who worship gods go to gods. My devotee comes to me.

Purport 7.23: The purport is that those who worship Brahma, Vishnu and Shiv or some other god, the fruit of the worship of those gods is perishable i.e. that worship is useless.
