FAQs
Devotional worship of Hari—especially with tulasī during a night-vigil—is taught as a direct cause of freedom from rebirth.
The context is Dvārakā Māhātmya within the Prabhāsa Khaṇḍa, celebrating Dvārakā and Vāsudeva’s worship there.
Perform a jāgara (night-vigil) and worship Hari with tulasī leaves and blossoms in a spirit of bhakti.
