एतान् कीर्तयतां नित्य॑ दुःस्वप्नो नश्यते नृणाम् मुच्यते सर्वपापेभ्य: स्वस्तिमांश्व गृहान् ब्रजेत्
etān kīrtayatāṁ nityaṁ duḥsvapno naśyate nṛṇām | mucyate sarvapāpebhyaḥ svastimānś ca gṛhān vrajet ||
প্রতিদিন এ সকল দেবতার নাম কীর্তন করলে মানুষের দুঃস্বপ্ন নষ্ট হয়। সে সকল পাপ থেকে মুক্ত হয় এবং মঙ্গলসহ নিরাপদে গৃহে প্রত্যাবর্তন করে।

Educational Q&A
Regular devotional recitation (kīrtana) of the named deities is presented as a dharmic practice that removes inauspiciousness (nightmares), purifies moral fault (pāpa), and grants safe, auspicious return—linking inner purity with outer well-being.
In Anuśāsana Parva, Bhīṣma instructs on dharma and religious observances. Here he states the fruit (phalaśruti) of daily praising/reciting the previously mentioned deities: nightmares cease, sins are removed, and the practitioner returns home safely.
