from Gita

 

Chapter 18, Verse 33.

O son of Prtha, that determination which is unbreakable, which is sustained with steadfastness by yoga practice, and thus controls the mind, life, and the acts of the senses, is in the mode of goodness.

 

Chapter 18, Verse 34.

And that determination by which one holds fast to fruitive result in religion, economic development and sense gratification is of the nature of passion, O Arjuna.

 

Chapter 18, Verse 35.

And that determination which cannot go beyond dreaming, fearfulness, lamentation, moroseness, and illusion--such unintelligent determination is in the mode of darkness.

 

[Jahnava Nitai Das 2]

Gita 7.21 is somewhat close, as the devas are devotees of the Lord:

 

yo yo yam yam tanum bhaktah

sraddhayarcitum icchati

tasya tasyacalam sraddham

tam eva vidadhamy aham

 

"I am in everyone's heart as the Supersoul. As soon as one desires to worship the demigods, I make his faith steady so that he can devote himself to some particular deity."

I have always wondered if the Norse gods of Asgard are also secret devotees of Lord Krishna?

Is Odin really Indra, or Rudra, or perhaps Varuna?
