Manvantaras and Indras; Sudharmā’s Liberation through Viṣṇu-Pradakṣiṇā; Supremacy of Hari-Bhakti
नारायणानुस्मरणोद्यतानां महात्मनां त्यक्तपरिग्रहणाम् । कथं भवत्युग्रभवस्य बंधस्तत्सङ्गलुब्धा यदि मुक्तिभाजः ॥ ५० ॥
nārāyaṇānusmaraṇodyatānāṃ mahātmanāṃ tyaktaparigrahaṇām | kathaṃ bhavatyugrabhavasya baṃdhastatsaṅgalubdhā yadi muktibhājaḥ || 50 ||
أمّا العظماء الذين يلازمون تذكّر نارايانا وقد نبذوا روح التملّك، فكيف يكون لهم قيدٌ مولودٌ من صيرورة الدنيا العنيفة؟ وإن جُذبوا إلى تلك المخالطة فهم مع ذلك من أهل الموكشا، شركاءُ التحرّر.

FAQs
It declares that unwavering remembrance of Nārāyaṇa combined with renunciation of possessiveness (parigraha) dissolves saṃsāric bondage; such devotees are intrinsically oriented toward mokṣa.
Bhakti is presented as continuous smaraṇa (anusmaraṇa) of Nārāyaṇa; when devotion is steady, even incidental contact with worldly influences cannot firmly bind the devotee.
No specific Vedāṅga (like Vyākaraṇa or Jyotiṣa) is taught here; the practical takeaway is sādhanā-based—daily discipline of smaraṇa and cultivation of vairāgya (non-possessiveness).
