FAQs
It teaches the extraordinary sanctifying power (pāvanatā) of contact with realized renunciants: even darśana (holy sight) of one who truly practices sannyāsa is said to confer the same spiritual fruit as the discipline itself.
By emphasizing darśana and reverence toward holy persons, it supports a bhakti-oriented culture where honoring the Lord’s devotees and ascetics becomes a direct means of accruing merit and moving toward liberation.
