The Description of the Worship of Rāma and Others
Rāmādi-pūjā-vidhāna
जानकीवल्लभो ङेंतो द्विठांतः कवचादिकः । दशार्णोऽयं महामन्त्रो विशिष्टोऽस्य मुनिः स्वराट् ॥ ६५ ॥
jānakīvallabho ṅeṃto dviṭhāṃtaḥ kavacādikaḥ | daśārṇo'yaṃ mahāmantro viśiṣṭo'sya muniḥ svarāṭ || 65 ||
‘জানকীবল্লভ’ৰে আৰম্ভ, ‘ঙেং’ৰে অন্ত, আৰু ‘দ্বিঠাঁ’ৰে সমাপ্ত—ই কৱচ আদি কৰ্মত প্ৰয়োগ্য। ই দশাৰ্ণ মহামন্ত্র; ইয়াৰ বিশিষ্ট ঋষি ‘স্বরাট’।
Narada (teaching mantra-vidya details within the Vedanga/technical section)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: bhakti
It defines the lakṣaṇa (technical identity) of a Rāma-centered mahāmantra—its opening, ending phonemes, syllable-count, and ṛṣi—showing that effective mantra practice in the Narada Purana requires both devotion and precise mantra-structure.
By naming the mantra as ‘Jānakīvallabha’ (Rāma), it anchors practice in personal devotion to the Lord; the technical details serve Bhakti by safeguarding correct remembrance and disciplined japa, especially in protective (kavaca) observances.
Mantra-lakṣaṇa grounded in phonetic/recitational precision—how a mantra is identified by its beginning/ending sounds and syllable-count (daśārṇa), and how it is applied in kavaca and allied ritual uses.
