Bhagavad Gita 9.25

यान्ति देवव्रता देवान् पितृ़न्यान्ति पितृव्रताः।भूतानि यान्ति भूतेज्या यान्ति मद्याजिनोऽपि माम्॥

yānti devavratā devān pitṛnyānti pitṛvratāḥ |bhūtāni yānti bhūtejyā yānti madyājino'pi mām ||

The worshippers of the gods go to them; the ancestor-worshippers go to the manes; the worshippers of the deities who preside over the elements go to them; but My devotees come to Me.

The votaries of the lesser powers go to them; the devotees of spirits go to them; they who worship the powers of darkness, to such powers shall they go; and so too, those who worship me shall come to me.

Our plain-language meaning of this verse is waiting for scholar review.
