What an assurance from the
Supreme God! that,
He would take care of the welfare
(Yoga-Keshma) of His devotees. But a condition that,
they should have ANANYA
BHAKTI/CHINTANA towards HIM.
>What is Ananya Bhakti?
Ananya means 'no' anya,
single minded devotion (emphasis on Ananya Bhakti), exclusive devotion towards the Supreme God who is Hari Sarvottama;

It doesn't mean that one should not worship Ithara Devatas like Ganapati, Navagraha, Subramanya, Rudra etc. They are Vishnu Parivaara Devatas; they should not be ignored. They should be worshipped appropriately with proper anusandhana and as per Taratamya; while focus should always be on Hari Sarvottama - BharatiramanaMukhyaPraanaAntargatha;
