ध्यात्वा नारायणं देवं तद्देहे तौ लयं गतौ ॥ यश्चापि शृणुयात्पादं पर्वाध्यायं सविस्तरम्
dhyātvā nārāyaṇaṃ devaṃ taddehe tau layaṃ gatau || yaścāpi śṛṇuyātpādaṃ parvādhyāyaṃ savistaram
दोनों ने नारायण का ध्यान किया और उस शरीर में लय हो गए। जो भी यह पूरा अध्याय सुनता है, उसको भी फायदा होता है।

No geographic location is specified in this fragment.
Sustained contemplative focus (dhyāna) is presented as a direct means toward spiritual absorption, and attentive listening to the text is framed as valuable practice.
