Sanatkumara (teaching Narada)
Vrata: none
Primary Rasa: shanta
Secondary Rasa: bhakti
It emphasizes disciplined mantra-practice: recognizing the correct presiding deity (Tripurabhairavī) as taught by the guru-lineage, and sanctifying the body through nyāsa before applying the seed-mantra.
Bhakti here is expressed as reverent, guru-guided worship—devotion is made concrete through correct identification of the deity and careful ritual installation (nyāsa) that turns the practitioner’s body into a fit seat of worship.
It highlights applied mantra-vidyā: the technical ritual method of nyāsa (placing mantra on body-points) and the use of a bīja (Vāgbhava) under ācārya instruction—an example of disciplined liturgical practice within the text’s technical teachings.
